Septal Deviation Surgery Review, All the Way to a Beautiful Nose Line

Hello,

We are JW Jewelry Plastic Surgery,

which delivers results.

What is a deviated septum?

A deviated septum refers to a condition in which the septum,

the wall that divides the nostrils into two,

is bent and causes functional nasal problems

such as nasal congestion or sinusitis.

Causes and symptoms of a deviated septum

There are various causes of a deviated septum.

It may occur due to a congenital deformity, trauma during delivery,

or a slight injury during growth,

leading the septum to become bent.

In addition, the septum may be pressed and bent

by inferior turbinate hypertrophy, tumors, and other factors.

The most common symptom of a deviated septum

is nasal congestion.

Because the septum is bent, the narrowed side of the nose

is usually blocked, making breathing uncomfortable,

and if the deviated septum continues,

the wider side may also develop hypertrophic rhinitis,

in which the mucosa of the inferior turbinate gradually thickens.

In addition, a deviated septum can also cause

postnasal drip, where mucus runs down the back of the nose,

mouth breathing, headaches, sleep disturbances, sleep apnea,

and other problems.

Improving a deviated septum with JW Jewelry Functional Rhinoplasty

A deviated septum can be corrected

with septoplasty.

At the same time as straightening the septum,

rhinoplasty can also be performed.

Because the inside of the nose is bent,

a deviated septum is difficult to judge visually.

In fact, there are many cases where patients come in for rhinoplasty consultation

and are diagnosed with a deviated septum after a 3D CT scan.

A deviated septum can be corrected by straightening the bent septum

and treating accompanying nasal conditions such as rhinitis and inferior turbinate hypertrophy.

In addition, if there is bending or deformity of the nasal bone,

the nasal bone is straightened with the appropriate surgical method

to create a straight shape.

If necessary, correcting the bridge and tip of the nose together

can solve functional problems such as a deviated septum

while also completing a straight and refined nose shape.

Functional rhinoplasty and deviated septum correction covered by actual expense insurance

Therefore, when considering rhinoplasty,

it is most important to check whether it can improve the shape of the nose

while also resolving functional problems.

To do this, you need to understand the structure of the nose accurately

and choose a hospital that can not only complete a beautiful nose line

but also relieve functional discomfort.
