Are you struggling with nasal breathing issues or looking to enhance the appearance of your nose?
At Aftab Ahmed Aesthetics, septorhinoplasty offers a transformative solution to address both functional and cosmetic concerns, helping you breathe easier and feel more confident in your appearance.
Septorhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that combines septoplasty (to correct a deviated septum) with rhinoplasty (to reshape or refine the nose). This comprehensive approach improves airflow and corrects structural issues while also enhancing the aesthetic harmony of your nose with the rest of your facial features.
Performed by expert facial plastic surgeon Mr Aftab Ahmed, each septorhinoplasty is carefully tailored to your unique needs, ensuring you achieve natural-looking results that enhance both form and function. With care provided in state-of-the-art clinics in Nottingham and Doncaster, you’ll feel confident and supported throughout your journey.
Also Known As: Functional rhinoplasty, septal correction surgery, nose reshaping surgery.
What Is Septorhinoplasty?
Septorhinoplasty is a dual-purpose surgical procedure designed to improve nasal function and aesthetics. It involves correcting a deviated septum to improve breathing while addressing any cosmetic concerns, such as a hump, asymmetry, or an unbalanced nasal tip.
This surgery is ideal for individuals with:
- Difficulty breathing through the nose due to a deviated septum.
- Nasal blockages caused by structural abnormalities.
- Concerns about the shape, size, or symmetry of the nose.
- A history of nasal trauma affecting appearance or function.
By combining functional and aesthetic corrections in one procedure, septorhinoplasty offers comprehensive results with a single recovery period.
