    Septoplasty for a Deviated Septum

    Looking for a quick and easy solution to have a better night’s sleep? Septoplasty might be the right procedure for you. Improperly shaped nasal septum, commonly known as deviated septum, is a common condition that causes various nasal and health complications. Deviated septum is usually caused by injury, birth defect, or damage caused by previous medical procedures. Allure Aesthetic Surgery of Beverly Hills performs septoplasty to repair deviated parts of the cartilage and the bone along the septum.

    What is Septoplasty?

    Septoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes deviated septum to treat problems caused by nasal obstruction. This procedure is performed to fix various symptoms including the following:

    • Quick procedure
    • Post-nasal drip
    • Diminishing taste and smell
    • Snoring
    • Dry mucous membranes
    • Using the mouth to breathe
    • Serious headaches
    • Difficulty using the nose to breathe

    Side Effects of Septoplasty

    What to Expect After the Procedure

    Minimum pain and discomfort is normal during the recovery period. Typically, patients return to work a day or two after the surgery, but we recommend patients to refrain from any strenuous activities for about a week.

    How it Works

    Most septoplasty for deviated septum takes about an hour to complete and may be done under local or general anesthesia. The two types of septoplasty procedures are the traditional procedure, which involves the open technique, and the minimally invasive internal procedure. Both procedures involve lifting the mucus membrane, repositioning or removing the bone or the cartilage that is blocking the airway, and then replacing the mucus membrane and stitching it back in place.
