A deviated septum can cause:

• Persistent nasal blockage (often on one side)
• Difficulty breathing through the nose
• Recurrent sinus infections
• Headache
• Snoring
• Frequent nosebleeds

Many patients suffer from nasal obstruction due to septal deviation without realizing it.

Septoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct a deviated nasal septum. It improves airflow through the nose and reduces recurrent sinus infections. In most cases this procedure is combined with a turbinate reduction or coblation procedure which improves nasal airway and gives significant relief.

Benefits of Septoplasty:

• Improved nasal breathing
• Reduction in sinus infections
• Better sleep quality
• Reduced snoring
• Relief from nasal obstruction

The procedure is performed under anesthesia without any visible external cuts. Most patients recover quickly and return to routine activities within a few days.

At Sahwas ENT clinic we have extensive experience performing Septoplasties with great results.
