Septoplasty is an operation aimed at correcting the shape of the nasal septum. Surgical intervention is performed with significant deformities of the osteochondral plate. Such defects provoke functional breathing disorders and changes in the nasopharyngeal mucosa at the morphological level. An insignificant curvature can act as a purely cosmetic defect. It can be corrected at the request of the patient. All plastic surgeons of the clinic of are experts in performing septoplasty using modern techniques. Clinic staff regularly improve their skills in the best clinics in Europe. In their work the plastic surgeons of the clinic use the world’s best practices in the field of surgical otolaryngology. Indications for septoplasty Alignment of the nasal septum is indicated in the following cases:• Violation of full nasal breathing, which is due to curvature.• Chronic inflammation of the paranasal sinuses.• Snoring, apnea.• Asymmetry of the nose caused by a deviated septum.• Damage of the nasal septum due to surgery or injury.• Perforation of the cartilage septum due to inhalation of toxic substances. The list of indications for septoplasty can be expanded by a plastic surgeon.

Laser septoplasty
The correction of a deviated septum is carried out applying high temperatures. Surgeons indicate a laser correction to patients with:
Advantage: a laser septoplasty does not need incisions that is why during and after the procedure there is no bleeding. The recovery goes faster than after the surgical correction.
Disadvantage: a laser may influence only a cartilage tissue, so a procedure is not indicated for people with bone deformations.
Endoscopic septoplasty
The operation is processed in an endonasal way, without incision. During the endoscopic septoplasty, a doctor uses a special tube with a backlight and camera which transmits the image to the monitor. A doctor inserts it in the nasal cavity together with special instruments to correct the septum.Advantages: a procedure allows correcting severe defects. No visible scars remain in a patient after an endoscopic septoplasty.
Disadvantage: this is a surgical operation, and small bleeding can occur after it. As a result, the recovery goes slower than after laser septoplasty.
Surgical deviated septum correction (traditional septoplasty)
The procedure is performed through the external skin incision. A doctor peels the mucous membrane off the cartilage and bone tissues to correct them:
Advantages: a procedure allows correcting defects of any complexity.
Disadvantage: a recovery after the surgical septoplasty lasts longer than after the non-surgical one.
Preparation
The preparation for the deviated septum surgery includes:
Operation
The intervention is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or under general anesthesia. It depends on the stage of the defect and correction type. The average duration of the procedure is 1 hour.
<Recovery
After septoplasty, a patient stays in the hospital for 1 night. The number and frequency of postoperative consultations are determined individually for each patient by a doctor. The average stay in the country after the procedure is 5-10 days.
