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.
