Septoplasty (Deviated Septum Surgery)
In Tekirdağ, septoplasty (deviated septum surgery) is a procedure in which nasal obstruction and breathing complaints caused by deviation of the septum are surgically evaluated. You can consult Op. Dr. Koray Kırbıyık to have your complaints assessed.
WHAT IS SEPTOPLASTY?
Septoplasty is a surgical procedure in which deviations (deviation) in the cartilage and bone wall called the “septum,” which divides the nasal cavity into two, are corrected. A deviated septum can lead to problems that reduce quality of life, such as constant nasal obstruction, snoring, frequently recurring sinusitis, and headaches.
Through septoplasty surgery, Op. Dr. Koray Kırbıyık removes this obstacle blocking your airway, enabling you to breathe more comfortably and healthily. This procedure usually does not create an aesthetic change, and because it is performed from inside the nose, it leaves no incision scar on the outside. When necessary, it can be combined with procedures such as rhinoplasty or conchaplasty. Contact us to take the first step toward healthy breathing.
In patients who present with nasal obstruction and breathing complaints, Op. Dr. Koray Kırbıyık performs a detailed endoscopic examination and radiological evaluation to determine the degree of septal deviation. If the deviation is at a level that reduces quality of life, septoplasty surgery is recommended. This procedure involves correcting or removing the deviated cartilage and bone tissues.
The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia, and because it is carried out from inside the nose, no incision or scar remains on the outside. The surgical duration ranges, on average, between 45 minutes and 1 hour. Using modern surgical techniques, Op. Dr. Koray Kırbıyık reshapes the septal structure, enabling his patients to achieve healthier breathing.
In the postoperative period, silicone splints placed inside the nose allow patients to breathe comfortably. These splints are usually removed after 4-7 days. Patients may feel mild nasal obstruction for the first few days, but a return to daily life is possible within about 1 week.
One of the greatest advantages for patients considering septoplasty surgery in Tekirdağ is that Op. Dr. Koray Kırbıyık has both a functional and an aesthetic approach. In some patients, septal deviation may be evaluated together with the need for nasal aesthetics. In this case, a combined surgery with rhinoplasty can be planned.
