Why do septoplasty?
Nasal breathing is something we don’t notice when everything is fine. However, even a small difficulty leads to to a decrease in quality of life, performance, and mood. In addition, it leads to the development of a pathological process such as in the paranasal sinuses, and subsequently in other organs and systems, primarily in the bronchopulmonary.
Septoplasty is the most effective method of correcting an anatomical defect, facilitating breathing, reducing the number of diseases of the ENT organs, preventing hypoxia, preventing hearing and smell loss and other conditions caused by a deviated septum.
For minor cartilage deformations, laser nose surgery can be performed. In more complex cases, especially when removal of fragments of bone and cartilage tissue is required, endoscopic septoplasty is used.
Surgical correction of the nasal septum is carried out using modern equipment, and effective rehabilitation methods are used. In our clinic, all operations are performed safely and painlessly for the patient.
