Is my nose deviated, saddling, or is it fine? (Photo)

Question

Over the past months I've seen an indent on the right side of my nose is this deviated or saddled? I'm driving myself insane trying to figure this out I've added a lot of photos for example

Hello! Thank you for your question.
As far as I can see from your photos It looks like deviation, but I recommend that you have a detailed examination by an ent doctor for this.
It would be better face to face consultation.
Best Regards!

Overall, you appear to have a pleasing nasal appearance. If you are concerned by the small indentation along the right side wall of your nose, depending on your examination, microdroplet Silikon-1000 nasal injections may be considered for creating a straighter looking nasal appearance without additional surgery. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

If you have never had rhinoplasty and do not use drugs, it is unlikely that your nose is saddling. Everyone's nose is different, so it is challenging to assess based on photos alone. However, if you want to change the shape of your nose, rhinoplasty does not always involve reduction but can also include augmentation. Often, nasal aesthetics focus on creating facial harmony, considering both the side profile and the frontal view.

Richard G. Reish, MD, FACS · Answer

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you appear to have a moderate dorsal hump with a mid-vault indentation.   If you want surgery, it could be improved with dorsal hump reduction and spreader graft placement, among other maneuvers. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.

Best wishes and good luck.
