Nasal Bone Deviation

Nasal Bone Deviation (Septum Deviation): For Easier Breathing and a Balanced Nose

Nasal bone deviation, also known as septum deviation, occurs when the cartilage and bone structure inside the nose shift away from the midline. This condition often leads to nasal congestion, difficulty breathing, snoring, and sometimes aesthetic concerns. A surgical procedure called septoplasty effectively resolves these issues.

What Is Nasal Bone Deviation and How Is It Treated?

Nasal bone deviation can result from genetic factors or trauma. Treatment typically involves a surgical intervention to correct the septum:

1. Evaluation and Planning: A specialist examines the internal structure of the nose to assess the severity of the deviation and create a treatment plan.

2. Anesthesia: The procedure is performed under general or local anesthesia.

3. Septum Correction: The deviated cartilage and bone structures are carefully adjusted, and any excess portions are removed.

4. Sutures and Final Checks: Internal incisions are closed with aesthetic sutures. If needed, supportive silicone splints are placed inside the nose.

How Long Does the Procedure Take, and What Is the Recovery Process?
