Septoplasty Operation in İstanbul, Turkey


Septoplasty surgery is usually a nose surgery through the nose (closed technique) only for the purpose of correcting the curvatures of the nose septum. Patients with curvature or dislocation in the septum cartilage (caudal septum section) in the nasal area, which have weak support at the tip of the nose, may need to be treated with open technique.

Is bruising, swelling or discoloration seen on the face after the septoplasty operation?


The nasal bone is not touched in the surgery of Septoplasty, and there is no edema or bruise on he face after the operation. Patients who are treated only by open technique septoplasty may experience swelling and swelling at the tip of the nose.

Could I breathe from my nose after the septoplasty operation?


I prefer to use a silicone splint, which is usually easily removable since it does not stick to the tissues in the nose, which usually has a hole that allows breathing through the post-operative time. Patients can clean the holes in the silicone by spraying and dripping into the nose after the surgery.

What are the internal silicone splints placed in the nose?


The purposes and benefits of internal silicone splints can be listed as follows:

• Acquire midline septum in the nose and ensure that the reseated septum cartilage is fixed flat in the midline
• Preventing possible adhesions by acting as a barrier between nasal turbinate and septum
• Prevention of hematoma (blood collection) in the nasal septum
• At the same time the patient is breathing through the holes in the silicone

When will the silicone be taken after the septoplasty operation?


It is usually ideal to remove silicone splints in the nose after 7 - 10 days. In patients with advanced septum deviations, silicone may be retained longer after surgery.

Is taking silicone splints painful?


Internal silicone splints are soft gel-like materials and can cause very little pain. Classic nose pads, they adhere to the mucous membranes in the nose tightly; removal is more painful.


How to remove internal silicone splints?


Below you can watch the video showing how the silicone splints are removed from the nasal cavities:



What are the risks if the earlier silicone splint removal?


After the operation of the septoplasty, sometimes the holes of the silicones in the nose are blocked early. The holes of the silicones can be cleaned without spraying the ocean water spray; due to insufficient application, the air hole of the silicone splints can easily be clogged. Because the nose septum and swollen nasal flesh contact each other, the airway can be reclosed and the adhesions in the nose can be reestablished in the patients who have undergone nasal surgery with the septoplasty surgery, as the silicone slits are removed before 7 days (nasal turbinates become swollen about 7 days because of turbinate radiofrequency) .

How is the bath after the operation of the septoplasty operation?


I usually suggest washing the head in the back and separately, washing the body as a bear so that the shampoo water does not come into contact with the patients for the first 3 weeks. Although our city water supply is clean, it is not sterile. If possible, it is best not to touch the municipal water in the nose for the first 3 weeks. The bathroom should not be too hot.

Is the nasal bandage or external splint used after the septoplasty operation?


As there is no intervention in the nasal bone in septoplasty operations, splint or bandage application is not needed.

Does the shape of the nose change after the septoplasty operation?


There is no permanent nose shape change after closed technical septoplasty operations. The nose may be seen a little wider in the first week depending on the internal silicone splinte in the nose and the little bir external edema. Occasionally the nose tip may lifted after open technique septoplasty operations.

Cost of septoplasty operation in İstanbul, Turkey


Perhaps the most frequently asked question about this issue is that ... Septoplasty prices may vary depending on thehospitals,  patients, with or without turbinate radiofrequency and the materials used. Septoplasti + turbinate radiofrequency prices are between $ 2000 and $ 2500 for the year of 2017.

Do you need another septum deviation surgery after the septoplasty operation?


Once the cartilaginous surgeries have been successfully performed, there will be no septum deviations in the nose again without trauma. The risk of re-growth of turbinates over the years and the repetition of the procedure is not present in the septoplasty operations, as in nasal surgery.

Patient care after septoplasty operation


After the septoplasty operation, it is planned to use a nose moisturizing drop, sea water spray, oral antibiotic tablet and pain relief tablets if necessary. Usually nasal moisturizing drops are suitable for several months.

Unknown positive health effects of septoplasty operation


There are many positive health effects that you may think of as irrelevant in patients with complaints of nasal obstruction due to septum deviation and treated with septoplasty surgery and many of nose problems.

Health benefits of septoplasty operation:


• Increased sleep quality, more vigorous awakening in the morning and decreased sleepiness after lunch
• Increased exercise capacity
• decreased frequency of Sore throat, chronic pharyngitis, gum disease
• Decrease in the frequency of upper respiratory and lower respiratory tract infections
• Acceleration of mental activity
• Decrease in mouth odor
• Increase in the olfactory capacity (because more air enters the nose)

 

Pre- and post-operative images of the Septoplasty


Below are two pre-operative and post-nasal images of the patients who underwent septoplasty. Postoperative nasal airway enlargement and septum have a smooth, curvature-free appearance.

How long does the septoplasty operation time?


Generally, closed technique septoplasty operation takes 15-30 minutes on average. Open technical septoplasty operation takes longer.

Can the operation of the septoplasty be performed under local anesthesia?


Yes, septoplasty can be performed under local anesthesia. However, in patients with advanced septum deviation, is more likely to be preferred to general anesthesia, because of it is more difficult to surgically remove the curved cartilage site andadequate injection of local anesthetics.

Open Technique Septoplasty Operation

Nasal Septum Deviation


Nasal septum, a structure which contain bone and cartilage and it's covered with mucosa,Nasal septum is divided into two vertically separated the nasal cavity. If there is a curvature that can be seen in this structure due to birth or later trauma, it is called "nasal septum deviation" or "nasal septal deviation" (links you can find detailed information >>​ Deviated Septum Surgery in Istanbul

Symptoms of Nasal Septum Deviation


In patients with nasal septum deviations, airway resistance increases on the side on which it is deviated (ie, on the side where the septum convexity is located), and the entry and exit of air becomes more difficult. For this reason, patients may experience nasal congestion, mouth open inhalation, and many related symptoms.

The nose is like a purification, heating, humidifying motor that makes the air taken from the outside fit the lungs. It is not just the lungs that this device becomes clogged and unable to function due to very different reasons, such as deviation, nasal growth, nasal polyp, allergic rhinitis, or nasal enlargement; can indirectly affect the functioning of all of the cells in our body by reducing blood oxygen levels.

For the purpose of nasal septum deviation treatment, the general practice of the operations is to "remove curved cartilage areas that close the airway in the nose without altering the nasal anatomy, without disturbing the nose support".

Types of Nasal Septum Deviation


Types of Nasal Septum Deviation
Septum deviation types can be grouped as shown in the figure on the left side.

In fact, as the amount of curvature increases and closes to the "nasal valve region", the narrowest airway region of the nose, intra-nasal airway resistance increases and the amount of related symptoms increases. Bone protrusions extending from the nasal septum towards the nasal flesh may additionally cause headaches of unknown cause (articles on the subject >> Nasal Bone Spur - Symptoms, Diagnosis ...

The nose is like a purification, heating and humidification engine that makes the air taken from outside into the lungs. It is not only the lungs that it becomes clogged and dysfunctional due to many different reasons such as deviation, nasal flesh enlargement, nasal polyps, allergic rhinitis or enlarged meat. It can indirectly affect the work of cells throughout our body through a decrease in blood oxygen levels.

For the purpose of the treatment of nasal septum deviation, the general principle of the operations is to "remove the curved cartilage areas that close the airway inside the nose without changing the nasal anatomy, disrupting the nasal support".

Why The Open Septoplasty Is Needed?


The classical nasal septum deviation correction operations are done with closed technique, ie in the nose. Especially in the case of the inferior part of septum (caudal septum) deviation it is more convenient to do this with open technique. Roughly, the reason for this can be explained as follows: If the caudal septum section, which is very important for nasal tip support, is removed with closed technique septoplasty, the nasal tip support can become as weak (even the patients say "my nose tip is changed as "soft" after nose surgery"). In order to reconstruct the nasal support, the procedure is performed with open technique. The graft is prepared from the flat parts of the posterior side of the septum to replace the caudal septum (columellar strut graft) instead of the caudal septum and the nasal tip is reattached.

Surgical Details About Open Septoplasty?




Open technique septoplasty begins with a five-point incision on the columella, located between the nostrils, such as open technical nasal aesthetic surgery. The procedure can be performed under local, sedation anesthesia or general anesthesia. Unlike conventional closed-technique septoplasty, there is no need for additional incision (Killian incision) on the septum in the nose. Only the nose skin is lifted and the nose septum is made visible. Cartilaginous cartilaginous tissue at the nose and at the posterior side is removed. New support cartilage grafts are prepared (strut graft) at the tip of the nose, and the procedure is terminated after the skin sutures are implanted. After the procedure, I usually prefer to place silicone nose splints that allow breathing and do not stick to the nose hairs.

How Long Does Open Septoplasty Operation?


While conventional closed technique septoplasty operation lasts 15-30 min, open technique septoplasty can last 45-60 min.


Open Septoplasty Surgery Price


The cost of open septoplasty in İstanbul can vary depending on the patient, whether or not there is turbinate radiofrequencey procedure that can be done together, and the length of the procedure. The cost of the surgery can range from 2000 to 3000 Dollars.


Postoperative Patient Care After The Open Septoplasty


In this operation, in addition to what should be done after classical septoplasty surgery, it is suitable to apply antibiotic ointments at the tip of the nose. Likewise, application of moisturizing drops and oceanic water sprays into the nose is sufficient to use antibiotics and, if necessary, pain relief in the first week. In addition, it may be necessary to apply Arnica gel to the nose tip. Shampooed or detergent waters should not enter the nose for 2-3 weeks after the operation. Silicone splints in the nose are usually removed after the first week


Do You Have Bruise on Your Face After Open Septoplasty?


In this surgery, the nasal bone is not broken, it is not expected to be bruise or excessive swelling. However, only edema extending from the nose tip to the adjacent cheek area can be seen. I suggest walking in the cool air in the afternoon and using arnica gel for the nasal drops.

Open Septoplasty Without Nasal Packing


If the septum deviation of the nose is limited only to the front part, if the no additional nasal surgery done with it, the open technical septoplasty operation can be done without the buffer. Genellikle hastalarda, deviasyona eşlik eden burun eti büyümesi olduğundan, işlem esnasında, ilave olarak turbinate radiofrequency ameliyatı da yapılabilmektedir (you can see details about turbinate radiofrequency at this link >> Radiofrequency Turbinate Reduction in Istanbul).

Healing Time After Open Septoplasty


After open technique septoplasty, swelling may occur at the tip of the nose in the first week and edema rapidly decreases after the first week. Most of the patients can return to their normal jobs after 7 days.
