Septoplasty (Deviated Septum Surgery)

Septoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to correct a deviated septum, which occurs when the nasal septum—the cartilage and bone dividing the nasal cavity—is off center or crooked, obstructing airflow and causing breathing difficulties. The surgery is typically performed under local or general anesthesia and involves making an incision inside the nose to access the septum. The surgeon then repositions or removes the deviated portions of the septum to improve nasal airflow and restore normal breathing. The procedure may also involve the use of splints or packing to stabilize the septum during the healing process. Recovery from septoplasty usually involves some swelling, nasal congestion, and discomfort, which generally resolve within a few weeks. Most patients experience significant improvement in their ability to breathe and overall nasal function. Septoplasty can also help alleviate symptoms such as chronic sinus infections, nasal congestion, and snoring, leading to a better quality of life.
