Saddle Nose Repair

Saddle nose refers to a deformity of the septum cartilage, or midline support of the nose. When this internal structure suffers damage, weakness or collapse, it can create an unwanted concavity (“saddle”) on the bridge of the nose. While saddle nose deformity can be a significant threat to a person’s self-confidence, it can also create breathing problems when it is more severe. Dr. Harirchian is a board certified and fellowship trained facial plastic surgeon who carries distinguished skill and talent when repairing, refining and reshaping the nose. She understands the delicate internal structures of the nose and how to create a more balanced and attractive appearance while enhancing or preserving breathing function.
