Septoplasty is a surgical procedure used to rectify nasal septum deformities and deviations by straightening the septum, resulting in improved nasal breathing.

Turbinate reduction surgery is a procedure that improves breathing and reduces nasal drainage by minimizing the size of the turbinate, located on the sidewall of the nose, responsible for regulating airflow.

Our team of North American and European Board Certified expert otolaryngologists utilize septoplasty and turbinate reduction procedures to relieve airway blockages caused due to enlarged turbinates and nasal septum deformities.


How are the procedures performed?

Turbinate reduction surgery may be performed in conjunction with a surgical septoplasty under local or general anesthesia with the help of an endoscope, a thin tube with an attached light to improve visualization and provide a magnified view of the nasal passages.

During the procedure, the surgeon makes small incisions inside the nose and lining mucosa of the turbinate to trim, reposition, and replace the cartilage or bone to straighten the nasal septum and remove the underlying turbinate bone to clear up the airway. Our physicians utilize the most advanced techniques including the use of the microdebrider and radio frequency during this procedure.
