About Septoplasty

Septoplasty is a surgical procedure performed by an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist to correct a deviated or crooked nasal septum, the wall of bone and cartilage that divides the nasal cavity into two nostrils. The goal is to straighten the septum, improving airflow through the nose and alleviating symptoms like chronic nasal obstruction, difficulty breathing, recurrent sinus infections, and nosebleeds. Typically performed under general or local anesthesia, the surgeon makes an incision inside the nose to access and reshape the septum, often without any external bruising. It is a common, effective solution for restoring normal nasal function and improving quality of life.

Key Highlights
