What is septoplasty surgery?
Septoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct a deviated septum, enhancing airflow and breathing. It’s typically an outpatient procedure, allowing patients to return home the same day. Recovery can take up to three months. Common in otorhinolaryngology and plastic surgery, it addresses significant nasal airway obstruction, often alongside rhinoplasty or turbinoplasty.
The septum, comprising cartilage and bone, divides the nose, but deviation can block airflow, often due to birth or injury. Surgeons perform septoplasty to treat sinusitis, remove polyps, and prevent nosebleeds, guided by whether it’s endoscopic or open.
The surgeon’s recommendations dictate whether septoplasty can be performed as an endoscopic septoplasty or an open septoplasty.
| Procedure Name | Septoplasty |
|---|---|
| Type of Surgery | Endoscopic or open |
| Type of Anesthesia | General Anesthesia |
| Procedure Duration | 30 minutes to 90 minutes |
| Recovery Duration | Few weeks to few months |
Septoplasty procedure: Preparation, Recovery And Post-Procedure Care
Preparation: Before a septoplasty, a surgeon reviews the patient’s medical history, checks the skin and nose, and may request blood tests and make some assessments. Oral blood-thinning medications are advised to be stopped up to a week before surgery. General anesthesia is used prior to the surgery.
During the surgery: A surgeon makes an incision to access the septum, lifts the mucous membrane, moves the deviated septum into the correct position, removes barriers, and repositions the mucous membrane, and finally stitches are made to secure the septum and membrane in place.
After the surgery: A septoplasty procedure may require stitches to secure the septum and membrane, but cotton packing can sometimes be enough to hold it. Septoplasty is typically an outpatient procedure, allowing patients to return home the same day as the procedure, unless significant complications occur.
Septoplasty recovery: The initial recovery from a septoplasty typically lasts about a week, with the overall healing of the bone and cartilage taking several months to a year. Post-procedure, expect swelling, bleeding, and congestion, which could be resolved over 2 weeks.
Post-procedure care: After surgery, one should rest for several days, resume light activities, avoid strenuous physical activity for one month, avoid nose blowing, sneeze open, avoid splints, and resume a normal diet if cleared by the surgeon.

FAQ's
How to fix a crooked nose?
Septoplasty straightens noses by reshaping nasal passages, often recommended for crooked noses due to deviated septum, and can relieve nasal airway blockage.
Does septoplasty change nose shape?
A septoplasty primarily focuses on straightening the septum within the nose to improve breathing, but it doesn’t alter the external shape of the nose.
Is septoplasty painful?
Septoplasty is typically painless due to the administration of anesthesia during the procedure, but some discomfort or pain may occur after the surgery.
Is a septoplasty a major surgery?
No, septoplasty is a minor and low-risk procedure with a few-day recovery time and a week of downtime.
Is septoplasty safe?
A septoplasty procedure is generally considered a safe procedure due to its high success rates, low risks, and minor complications.
Can you blow your nose after septoplasty?
No, after septoplasty, blowing the nose is typically prohibited for the first few weeks in order to prevent dislodgement of splints or sutures, which might potentially lead to bleeding and affect the recovery.
Can you wear glasses after septoplasty?
Usually, it is recommended that the patient avoid wearing glasses after the surgery in order to reduce the pressure on the septum and promote a smooth healing process.
How long do splints stay in after septoplasty?
Septoplasty splints stabilize the septum during healing and typically last for a few days to a week.
What are the indications of septoplasty?
Septoplasty indications include nasal airway obstructions, sinus infections, deviated nasal septums due to trauma or injuries, facial pressure, recurrent nasal bleeding, septal perforation, etc.
