The Concept of Septoplasty
The nasal septum, the cartilage wall dividing your nostrils, often causes breathing troubles when misaligned. A deviated septum, leaning to one side, restricts airflow, leading to congestion, difficulty breathing, and recurring infections.
Septoplasty is a surgical procedure that corrects a deviated septum. By restoring the nasal structure, it improves airflow, making breathing easier. This outpatient surgery typically involves minimal downtime, with swelling subsiding within a few days. While complete recovery can take several months, most patients experience significant improvement in their breathing shortly after this deviated septum surgery.
Procedure for Septoplasty
Septoplasty is performed under light anesthesia using a keyhole surgical technique, which involves making a small incision inside the nose without creating external scars. During the procedure, the cartilage is reshaped to ensure free airflow on both sides of the nose.
Post-surgery, a small silicone sheet is placed inside the nose for five days to protect the newly adjusted septum. This minimally invasive method eliminates the need for nasal packing but to prevent post surgical bleeding high technological nasal packing may be inserted for a day, allowing for a recovery time of just three days.
The procedure typically takes about 30-60 minutes, depending on the severity of the septal deviation. There are no black eyes post-surgery, and the outward shape of the nose remains unchanged. Septoplasty is often combined with rhinoplasty, a cosmetic procedure to improve the nose’s appearance. Thanks to advanced instrumentation and the expertise of our surgeon, patients can usually leave the hospital on the same day after undergoing a Septoplasty in Bahrain.
Expectations Post-Procedure
Septoplasty recovery is typically smooth. Most patients return home the same day and return to daily life with in a week, fully recover will be within a couple of months after their deviated septum surgery. Initial discomfort, including mild pain and congestion, can be managed with prescribed medication.
To promote healing, avoid nose-blowing, alcohol consumption, and strenuous activity during the early recovery period. Rest with your head elevated and keep the surgical area clean. Once healed, you’ll likely experience improved breathing, reduced snoring, and fewer nosebleeds.

- Improved breathing: By correcting the nasal septum, it allows for better airflow, making breathing easier and more comfortable.
