How is Septoplasty (Nasal Deviation) Surgery Performed?

Septoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to correct the cartilage and bone structure inside the nose called the septum. The primary goal of this operation is to improve breathing function; aesthetics are not the primary concern.

How is the procedure performed?

• It is performed from inside the nose using a closed technique.

• There are no visible external incisions.

• It takes an average of 45–90 minutes.

• It can be performed under general or local anesthesia.

Who is it suitable for?

• Those who experience constant nasal congestion

• Those who have a habit of breathing through their mouth

• Patients who experience recurrent sinusitis or headaches

📌 Important information:

Septoplasty does not change the shape of the nose; additional procedures may be necessary for patients with aesthetic expectations.
