About DEVIATED NASAL SEPTUM
Connecting you with India’s leading specialists in these medical fields
A deviated nasal septum is when the thin wall between the nostrils is off-center or crooked.
• Nasal septum deviation (congenital or injury-related)
• Chronic nasal obstruction or breathing difficulty
• Snoring or sleep apnea due to nasal blockage
• Septoplasty (with or without turbinectomy)
• Pediatric and adult nasal surgeries
Septoplasty is a surgical procedure to straighten a deviated nasal septum — the cartilage and bone dividing the nostrils. This improves airflow, reduces nasal obstruction, and helps with breathing.
- Improved breathing through the nose.
- Reduction in nasal congestion and sinus infections.
- Quick recovery with minimal visible scarring.
- Does not change nose shape (purely functional, not cosmetic).
- Possible bleeding or infection post-surgery.
- Results vary—some patients may still experience mild obstruction.
- India (USD): $1,200 – $2,000
- Kenya Shillings (KES): KSh 156,000 – KSh 260,000
Note: Prices vary based on hospital, surgeon experience, and any additional procedures like turbinate reduction.
Septorhinoplasty is a combined surgical procedure that corrects both the nasal septum (for breathing) and the outer shape of the nose (for appearance). It’s done for both functional and cosmetic reasons.
- Improves breathing by correcting a deviated septum.
- Enhances nasal appearance (symmetry, size, tip refinement).
- One-time procedure for both functional and aesthetic issues.
- Longer recovery time compared to septoplasty alone.
- Swelling and bruising can last several weeks.
- Cost is higher due to the dual nature (functional + cosmetic).
- India (USD): $2,500 – $4,500
- Kenya Shillings (KES): KSh 325,000 – KSh 585,000
Ideal for patients needing both better breathing and cosmetic nose reshaping. Performed by ENT and plastic surgeons together in top hospitals.
Endoscopic septoplasty is a minimally invasive surgery used to correct a deviated nasal septum using an endoscope (a small camera) inserted into the nose. It allows for precise correction with less tissue trauma.
- Less bleeding and swelling than traditional surgery.
- Faster recovery and shorter hospital stay.
- Better visualization for the surgeon, increasing accuracy.
- Not suitable for severe deformities or combined nasal issues.
- Needs specialized equipment and surgeon expertise.
- Mild discomfort or congestion may persist for days post-surgery.
- India (USD): $1,000 – $2,000
- Kenya Shillings (KES): KSh 130,000 – KSh 260,000
Preferred for patients seeking a safer, less invasive option with quicker healing, especially in modern ENT centers in India.
