Anika Mehta, a 28-year-old elementary school...
Anika Mehta, a 28-year-old elementary school teacher, was in a car accident two years ago that fractured her nasal bones and septum. While physically healed, the trauma left her with a visibly crooked nose and a persistent internal deviation that caused chronic sinus infections and difficulty breathing, especially during allergy season. Her ENT specialist, after managing recurrent infections, referred her to a reconstructive surgeon. The surgeon explained that a functional and aesthetic nasal reconstruction (septorhinoplasty) could correct the airway obstruction and improve symmetry. Anika underwent the 3-hour surgery, feeling anxious but hopeful. The first week of recovery was uncomfortable, with swelling and nasal packing, but breathing clearly through her nose for the first time in years was a revelation. Six months post-op, her breathing is perfect, sinus issues have resolved, and while the change is subtle, she feels her face is 'back in balance.' Emotionally, she transitioned from feeling marked by the accident to feeling functionally whole and quietly confident, no longer self-conscious when her students look up at her.
