Septoplasty

Septoplasty is typically an outpatient procedure performed in the nostrils and is the primary method for straightening a misaligned or deviated nasal septum. The benefit of septoplasty is that it can repair airways without changing the appearance of the nose.

A deviated septum involves displacement of the cartilage wall that divides the nose’s nasal passages, potentially leading to difficulty breathing, nosebleeds, chronic sinus infections, and other problems. It can be caused by a congenital condition or injury. COENT specializes in septoplasty and has helped thousands of patients realize improved breathing and comfort.
