Septoplasty
Septoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to correct a deviated septum, which is the cartilage and bone that divides the nasal cavity. It is often combined with a rhinoplasty. This correction offers several life-changing benefits:
- Improved Breathing: Septoplasty restores normal airflow by straightening the septum allowing you to breathe comfortably. The result is improved airflow and less congestion.
- Reduced Nasal Obstruction: Chronic nasal congestion, snoring, and sleep apnea may be improved enhancing your overall quality of life.
Cartilage Grafts
Cartilage grafts, such as spreader grafts, are often utilized during Septoplasty to address various nasal issues including aesthetic concerns. Dr. Prucz may use cartilage grafts to improve the external appearance of the nose, correct nasal valve collapse, or provide support.
Open and Closed Techniques
Both open and closed techniques can be used during Septoplasty and Cartilage Graft procedures.
- Closed Technique: Involves incisions made inside the nostrils leaving no visible external scars. This approach is suitable for less complex cases.
- Open Technique: Requires a small incision on the outside of the nose allowing for more extensive modifications and addressing complex nasal issues. The small scar is nearly invisible within the natural contours of the nose.
