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.

Septoplasty: Pre-Op & Post-Op 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.
