The main method of treating a saddle nose is to rebuild the bridge with cartilage. This can often require quite a bit of cartilage is cases like your so rib cartilage is a common treatment.The overall cost of treatment varies a lot among different surgeons but I'm sure you can get a better idea of cost after having an in person or virtual consultation with them.You can read more about saddle nose repair at my web reference link below.

Your photos demonstrate a severe deformity.  The underlying cause in part determines the choice of procedure.  You will need to find a skilled nasal plastic surgeon.  To rebuild the nose will require cartilage and possibly bone to restore the internal structure.  These donor tissues should come from your own body.  I would avoid any artificial material to be inserted.  The reconstruction may require two stages.  Fees vary widely.  But, a surgeon with experience will likely be in the $10,000 - $15,000 range.
