I feel like one side looks like a saddle nose deformity,ive never had nasal trauma,never used cocaine, never had a nose job and dont have any sicknesses which would produce one.my mom also has the same nose.as you can see in the photos,there is a bump on the R side but not on the L side. I didnt have this in childhood, it developed as I got older.is this just a bump on the right thats big enough to seem like a S.N.? or is it a S.N deformity? the front of my nose is attractive,Im a working model

Answer: Nasal analysis Good for you that you reached out to the realself community for answers!The quality of the photos makes it difficult to tell you exactly, but in the picture where you are turned to the left, I notice a prominent bony dorsal hump, and in the picture where you are turning to the right I notice prominence of the tip cartilages. Either of these structures can create the illusion of a saddle nose, or depression along the cartilage of the nasal dorsum. It does not appear to me that you have a saddle nose deformity.Make sure to seek consultation with a Facial Plastic Surgeon experienced in rhinoplasty. Usually, they will take high quality photographs and review them with you during the consultation. This may be helpful at answering your questions more accurately. Best wishes

Answer: Nose Bump You may have some asymmetry in the nasal bones but your pictures show no evidence of a saddle nose deformity. It appears to be more of a hump issue
