A septoplasty is a surgical procedure that addresses nasal airway obstruction causing breathing issues. Difficulty breathing through your nose may be caused by several reasons (allergies, polyps), but if you have a deviated (crooked) septum which obstructs your nasal airway, then correction of this problem can be done to open your nasal airway.
Typically, our Pittsburgh Septoplasty patients have a history of breathing issues that either they were born with or obtained from injury. Commonly, the procedure is covered by insurances; however, you must be examined by Dr. Liang and have a thorough history documented to be submitted to your insurance company. Plus, if injury did occur, please bring documentation of ER visit to your consultation. Using our technique for a Septoplasty Pittsburgh patients can enjoy a relatively painless procedure which can be done in conjunction with a rhinoplasty (nose job).
