Is this Saddle Nose Deformity after Septoplasty? (Photo)

March 23, 2017
Asked By:Nsno in Camp Dennison, OH

One month ago, I had a closed septoplasty/turbinate reduction done by a triple board certified plastic surgeon. I did not want to change the outside of my nose. About one month after the swelling has gone down, my profile has an indentation above the tip and a tiny hump on the bridge. From the front, my nose looks more crooked and the tip is wider. Is this saddle hump deformity? Or could this still be swelling? I'm totally distraught...
