Rhinoplasty & deviation of the nasal septum
Rhinoplasty & deviation of the nasal septum
If your nose is clogged on one side or two, or in some parts it gets tighter than normal, or if one side is tighter than the other and the nasal septum has a visible deviation that is determined from the outside due to the tilting of the nose and deviation to one side.
Nasal deviation can cause infectious nasal problems and sinus infection, as well as vulnerable nasal tissue and increase the likelihood of bleeding.
If this internal deviation causes respiratory problems, septoplasty is required.
Nasal septum
A nasal septum is a 7×4 cm wall that divides the nose into two equal parts: left and right. The nasal septum should be smooth to prevent breathing problems.
If you have nasal septum deviation and want rhinoplasty surgery, this can be done easily. Septoplasty and rhinoplasty are performed simultaneously to eliminate nasal deviation.
Preparation before surgery corrects nasal deviation and rhinoplasty:
1- If you are using blood thinners such as warfarin and aspirin, contact your surgeon
2- If you smoke two weeks before surgery, smoking should be stopped
3- Have a companion with you before surgery to accompany you on your way home
4- Coordinate with your workplace for leave before going to the hospital (you also need 7 to 10 days of rest at home)
5- You will not have pain during the surgery, but if you have any concerns, contact your anesthetic doctor.
6- Complete anesthesia is used for septoplasty and rhinoplasty surgery.
Process of septoplasty + rhinoplasty
1- Complete Anesthesia
2- Making an incision in the nose to remove the mucosal lining from the nasal septum
3- Cutting the nose at the deflection site to remove the mucosal lining
4- Removal of the part of the nose that has deviation
5- Returning the mucosal lining to the middle line of the nose
6- Inserting tampons or splits
Rhinoplasty procedures in the continuation of surgery
Rhinoplasty surgery is performed by open rhinoplasty following septoplasty.
Post-operative care of rhinoplasty + septoplasty
1- Limiting the activities of the body not doing heavy activities
2- When sleeping, the head is above the trunk to prevent nasal bleeding
3- Not taking aspirin and ibuprofen to prevent bleeding and blood dilution
4- Not doing heavy exercises that you breathe or blood pressure rises
5- Not emptying the nose two to three days after rhinoplasty
6- Button clothes that are worn comfortably and come out
7- Consuming enough fluids
8- Use of pineapple and citrus juice (containing vitamin C which accelerates nasal healing)
9- The healing process takes about 7 to 10 days
10- If septoplasty is done alone, bruising and swelling is less if done with rhinoplasty, bruising and swelling will increase.
11. Avoid collisional sports
Complications of nasal deviation surgery:
Bleeding
Nasal deformity (in special cases)
Bruising of the nose
Inflammation
Of course, it should be noted that in rhinoplasty, the middle septum is removed because if it is flattened, the nose will return to its original state (such as a tree that grows from a crooked root)
But the outer building of the nose does not change because the inner septom is removed and other bone parts of the nose are in place.
Patients who perform rhinoplasty and nasal deviation (septoplasty) together need more care.
