Septoplasty (Deviated Septum Surgery) in Grupo Bianca Ohana
About the clinic
Septoplasty at Grupo Bianca Ohana in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, corrects a deviated septum to help patients breathe better. The procedure addresses nasal blockages and aesthetic issues caused by internal structural shifts. Dr. Bianca Ohana leads the clinic, bringing specialized experience in nasal surgery from her residency at the National Cancer Institute and an international fellowship in Turkey.
Expert Surgical Approach
Dr. Bianca Ohana focuses on both the function and shape of the nose. She holds certification from the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP) and has served on its Scientific Committee for over 4 years. For complex cases involving breathing issues, she often collaborates with ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialists. Every surgery takes place in high-standard partner hospitals like Rede D'Or or Hospital Samaritano. These facilities provide intensive care support and use anesthesiologists from the Brazilian Society of Anesthesiology.
The Consultation and Safety
The process starts with a detailed physical exam and a review of your medical history. Patients also receive a professional skin evaluation during their first visit. To help with safety during surgery, the team uses pneumatic compression boots to prevent blood clots. After the procedure, the clinic provides lymphatic drainage sessions to help reduce swelling quickly.
Recovery and Post-Operative Care
Most patients need about 5 to 7 days of rest with their head elevated. The recovery follows a specific timeline for removing dressings:
- 24 hours: Removal of the nasal tamponade.
- 4 days: Removal of the internal silicone splint.
- 7 days: Removal of the external cast.
- 14 days: Completion of micropore taping.
Patients can usually return to light activities after 4 weeks. Dr. Ohana advises avoiding any sports or actions that carry a risk of nasal trauma during this time. For open surgery, the team recommends using silicone-based gels and sunscreen on the small scar to help it fade.
International Patient Support
The boutique clinic is located in Ipanema and holds TEMOS International Certification. This means the facility meets high standards for treating patients traveling from abroad. The team helps international visitors through telemedicine sessions before they arrive. After surgery, the clinic uses WhatsApp to follow up with patients and answer questions during their healing process.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
The surgical team addresses aesthetic and functional concerns through individualized planning. For nasal procedures, the clinic performs structured rhinoplasty and septoplasty to balance appearance with breathing function. Reconstructive services focus on oncologic care, including breast reconstruction using the DIEP flap technique – this uses the patient's own abdominal tissue.
The practice also treats various skin conditions and aesthetic goals:
- Management of benign and malignant skin tumors
- Blepharoplasty with precision tissue preservation for eyelid function
- Facelifts, neck lifts, and eyebrow-elevation surgery
- Body contouring including liposuction, tummy tucks, and buttock lifts
- Correction of raised and keloid scars using silicone-based protocols
Surgeries take place at hospitals with emergency support, including Rede D'Or and Hospital Samaritano.
Aesthetic Medicine and Cosmetology
Non-surgical treatments form part of personalized facial rejuvenation plans. The clinic uses MD Codes, a standardized system for hyaluronic acid fillers, to achieve natural-looking lifting and volume. Patients seeking nasal improvement without surgery can choose Liquid Rhinoplasty (Rinomodelação). This refines the nasal bridge or tip using fillers.
The aesthetic department uses specialized platforms for skin tightening and texture:
- Ulthera microfocused ultrasound for non-invasive lifting
- Fractional CO2 laser for skin resurfacing
- Sculptra and other collagen biostimulators
- Botulinum toxin for wrinkle reduction and excessive sweating
These office-based procedures are often combined to treat lines around the eyes or sharpen jawline definition.
Safety Protocols and Clinical Team
The medical team includes 7 doctors specializing in plastic surgery, dermatology, endocrinology, and anesthesiology. Dr. Bianca Ohana completed her residency at INCA and an Aesthetic International Fellowship at the University of Utah. All major cases require preoperative cardiology and laboratory assessments to reduce surgical risks.
Only members of the Brazilian Society of Anesthesia perform anesthesia. Post-surgical safety includes deep vein thrombosis prevention through early movement and medication when needed.
Services for International Patients
The clinic supports patients traveling to Rio de Janeiro through telemedicine coordination for initial consultations. International visitors receive written post-procedure guidance at discharge. Follow-up instructions also come via WhatsApp, so patients can manage recovery steps like medication schedules and wound care after returning home.
