What is a Septorhinoplasty?

Key Benefits of a Septorhinoplasty

• Improved Nasal Function

• Can alleviate nasal blockages, snoring, and chronic sinus infections.
• Enhanced Aesthetic Appearance
• Addresses concerns such as a crooked nose, bumps or asymmetry, if this is a concern.
• Achieves a balanced, natural-looking nose that complements facial features.
• Boosted Confidence and Quality of Life
• Many patients report increased self-esteem and improved well-being post-procedure.
• Improved sleep is a benefit most patients will report after this surgery.

The Septorhinoplasty Procedure

A septorhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia and can take around 3 hours, depending on the complexity of the patient’s case. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Consultation and Planning

Mr Naveen Cavale will assess your medical history, breathing concerns and aesthetic goals. 3D imaging may be used to visualise potential outcomes for patients.

2. Surgical Process

Septoplasty: The surgeon starts by correcting the alignment of the septum by removing or reshaping cartilage and bone.

Rhinoplasty: Adjustments are made to the external structure of the nose, such as reshaping the bridge, tip, or nostrils.

3. Recovery and Aftercare

Swelling and bruising are completely normal in the first two weeks. However, Mr Cavale uses what is known as the Piezo technique which you can read more about HERE. This means that patients typically have much less swelling/bruising when compared to traditional septorhinoplasty techniques.

In terns of recovery, most patients return to work after 10–14 days, with full results visible between 6–12 months.
