Is it something that can easily be diagnosed in its early stages by a ps, and does it progressively get worst?
Answer: How long does a saddle nose deformity take to develop after a septorhinoplasty? A saddle nose deformity can take years to develop in some cases. If you're concerned about your rhinoplasty result please seek a second opinion to determine exactly what is going on. A "saddle nose" in one person's opinion might be a slight over reduction of the nasal bridge or a major (but rare) complication of nasal surgery. Only the opinion of an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon can differentiate the two. Best.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Saddle nose Thank you for your question. Saddle nose deformity can range from very mild to very severe. If there is only a mild saddle nose deformity, it may not be noticed until all the swelling from the rhinoplasty has abated. On the other hand, if the saddle nose deformity is severe, it may be noticeable almost immediately. It will appear to progressively get worse after rhinoplasty until all the swelling has subsided. If you are concerned about this, let your surgeon know.

Answer: Saddle nose Saddle nose deformity is a very rare complication of a septorhinoplasty where inadequate dorsal support has been left. This deformity should be evident very soon after surgery, if it occurs at all.
