At Medikeri’s Super Speciality ENT Centre, we perform septoplasty to correct a deviated nasal septum—one of the most common causes of nasal obstruction and breathing difficulty. Our ENT specialists use advanced techniques to restore normal airflow and improve overall nasal function.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Septoplasty involves straightening the cartilage and bone that divide the nasal cavity (the septum). After a thorough examination including nasal endoscopy and imaging, the surgery is planned to ensure precise correction and symptom relief.

ANESTHESIA & PREPARATION

The procedure is typically performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity and patient comfort. Preoperative tests and instructions are provided, including medication adjustments and fasting requirements.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

A small incision is made inside the nose, eliminating the need for external scars. The deviated portions of bone and cartilage are reshaped or removed, and the septum is repositioned to the center of the nose for better airflow.

MINIMALLY INVASIVE APPROACHES

Using endoscopic guidance and microsurgical tools, the procedure is done with minimal trauma to surrounding tissues. This ensures less bleeding, reduced discomfort, and a quicker recovery.

CLOSURE & RECOVERY

Once the septum is corrected, internal splints or soft packing may be placed temporarily to support healing. Patients are usually discharged the same day with detailed postoperative care instructions.

POST-SURGICAL CARE

Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities, nose blowing, and dusty environments for a few weeks. Nasal rinses and prescribed medications aid in healing. Follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor recovery and remove any internal supports.

CONCLUSION

At Medikeri’s Super Speciality ENT Centre, septoplasty is performed with precision, safety, and patient comfort in mind. We are committed to helping you breathe easier and live better through expert nasal care and personalized treatment.
