Is A Saddle Nose The Same As Ski Jump Deformity?

Rhinoseptoplasty2011
I think my PS made a mistake at removing the hump in my nose,he left me with a low curved inward bridge,like a ski launch pad.my nose has no dorsum projection and my bulbous tip (maybe due to supratip and pollybeak)is now the center of attention and also my nose looks too feminine for my face. How can my PS solve the problem he created? Do i need more tip definition or more cartilage in the bridge? Is this considered a saddle nose or ski jump deformity?
