Deviated nose correction, if you have facial harmony in mind
When we look around, the place where the gaze ultimately settles
is often the appearance of a deviated nose, and many people have wondered what may have caused it.
A well-balanced nose is one of the important features responsible for facial harmony,
so if the nose located at the center of the face has a crooked shape,
it naturally draws attention.
This often leads directly to a sense of insecurity.
Such lowered confidence may be due to congenital factors,
but it was said to be more often caused by trauma from external impact.
If, during the growth process from childhood,
the bone inside the nose grows excessively,
a deviated nose may develop,
and frequent nose-picking or touching of the nose was also considered a cause of deformity.
When it occurs due to unexpected external impact or genetic factors,
quick response was needed to help prevent a deviated nose.
For those considering deviated nose correction to restore confidence with a balanced nasal bridge,
various factors needed to be considered.
First, it was necessary to medically check the current condition inside the nose.
Whether there is any interference when breathing,
whether that has led to symptoms of rhinitis,
and whether there is any discomfort in daily life needed to be examined carefully.
A deviated nose can be classified into various forms depending on its degree.
It is divided into three types: C-shaped, S-shaped, and diagonal,
and generally, the C-shaped deviated nose appears most frequently.
However, unlike the C-shaped and S-shaped types, the diagonal type also causes the nasal tip to rotate.
Can I simply live with a deviated nose as it is?
The nasal septum is the partition wall that divides the inside of the nose into left and right sides,
and it is mainly composed of cartilage and bone plates, supporting the nasal bridge and nasal tip,
while being covered with mucosa.
When looking at the anatomical structure of the nose,
if the septal cartilage is deviated,
it can cause various discomforts.

It may not only continuously irritate the mucosa,
but also lead to chronic rhinitis,
and complications such as migraine or sleep apnea may develop.
Beyond discomfort in daily life,
it can also functionally lead to one-sided nasal obstruction and other issues,
which may develop into nasal diseases.
Correction was needed after an accurate diagnosis.
Therefore, to examine it closely, it was necessary to identify when it occurred and what caused it.
As there are many different cases,
a crooked nose required a one-on-one care approach tailored to its type.
01 When only the bone is deviated
The bony portion needed to be osteotomized, aligned straight, and then an implant inserted.
02 When the cartilage is also deviated
In most cases, the nasal septum and cartilage are often deviated together,
so the most important part was to straighten both the bone and cartilage areas.
Each individual’s symptoms and degree of deviation,
as well as the anatomical structure and aesthetically beautiful proportions,
could be assessed to anticipate improvement.
Even if there was no perceived functional deficiency,
to correct a crooked nose so that it becomes straight,
a solid understanding and study of the medical structure had to be supported.
It may also be helpful to ask about the medical team’s know-how and experience during your consultation.
Here, we also introduced our clinic’s THREE ASC SYSTEM.
What is the THREE ASC SYSTEM?
| APEX (equipment) | SAFE (safety) | CARE (management) |
|---|---|---|
| Hyperbaric oxygen therapy device | Anesthesiology specialist | Professional consultation |
| CT scanner | Oximeter | Patient monitoring |
| Ultrasound device | Sterilization and disinfection | Recovery care system |
At our clinic, various systems have been introduced
to systematically provide an accurate diagnosis of the surgical area
and perform surgery with close attention to safety, aiming for satisfying results.
When performing crooked nose correction,
if the foundational work is not properly completed before proceeding,
the nose may settle along the crooked base,
so the foundation was said to be the most important.
Is crooked nose correction really possible?
Depending on the person, even after crooked nose correction,
there were cases where 100% improvement was not achieved.
In such cases, the facial axis itself may be misaligned, making the nose appear crooked.
Some people had a habit of using one side of the muscles more,
resulting in noticeable left-right asymmetry,
or the bones themselves had developed asymmetrically.
Therefore, when planning crooked nose correction surgery, whether to align it with the face
or align it with the nose should be decided through consultation with a specialist,
so that a better direction can be planned.
In closing, Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery has explained crooked nose correction,
considering not only external changes but also internal improvements together.
In addition, for those looking into crooked nose correction,
we also shared information about the hump nose surgery performed at our clinic.
