Hooked Nose
Certain noses have a hooked shape that almost resembles a parrot beak. This
gives an undesirable appearance to the profile, and takes the focus away from
the beauty of the lips. Ideally, the angle between the upper lip and the nose (the
nasolabial angle) should be between 90-105 degrees in women, and between
90-95 degrees in men. When this angle is smaller than 90 degrees, it gives the
appearance that the tip of the nose is drooping and it can also make the
individual seem older than their age.
Nasolabial angle less than 90 degrees gives the nose a hooked and
droopy appearance

In addition to removal of the hump, reshaping of the tip of the nose is required to
produce a more desirable nasolabial angle. Good judgment and a strong artistic
sense of facial balance and harmony are required to maintain a natural outcome.
