Saddle Nose Repair/Collapsed Nose Repair

Saddle Nose Repair

• Concaved nasal bridge
• Shortened nose
• Over-rotated nasal tip (pig nose)
• Collapsed nasal valves (nasal obstruction)

Rhinoplasty is needed to repair a collapsed nasal bridge. Most saddle nose repairs will require cartilage grafts and other support devices to restore the structure of the bridge and nasal passages.

Collapsed Nose Correction

Saddle nose repair is one of the more complex rhinoplasty procedures. It is vital to restore function of the nose, but correcting the appearance is also important. Dr. Jacob Sedgh is one of the best rhinoplasty plastic surgeons in the greater Los Angeles, CA, area, renowned for his expertise, skill and artistry. He carefully plans every collapsed nose rhinoplasty procedure to determine the best methods to achieve a balanced, natural nose appearance while ensuring any functional issues are corrected during the surgery.

During saddle nose correction surgery, patients will likely receive cartilage grafts to restore support to the nasal bridge. Dr. Sedgh recommends autologous rib cartilage grafts when excess cartilage is needed, which is harvested from the patient for the safest and most reliable outcomes.
