I have a severely deviated septum as well as a pointy bone fragment in my upper area of my nose from an injury. I have a very large hump and bulbous tip that goes to one side. I am... Read more

I would like to say that overall, if you do not have complications, this surgery is not as bad as people are saying. If you read what people say online, you will be prepared for the worst, but know it is not that terrible. I had this surgery done because I've had sinus problems and chronic... Read more

Great posts by everyone. I am having surgery in less than a week. I had a rhinoplasty approximately 20 years ago and have had a lot of problems breathing on one side ever since. My septum is way over to the right and I get very little air flow up that side. Although my profile is significantly... Read more

I had septoplasty and rhinoplasty a few days ago in Saudi Arabia. The septoplasty was because my nose had been broken a few times from fighting in High school and the doctor stated was severely damaged. The rhinoplasty was to remove the small hump on my nose, not for cosmetic reasons, but... Read more

I got a septoplasty and rhinoplasty, and was very pleased to learn he could work on both the inside and the outside of my nose.  The day of the surgery (my first ever surgery), he was a very calming influence. Later that night he called me to follow up and provide a few more bits of... Read more

I have had congestion and low airflow in my right nostril for as long as I can remember. I went to an allergist who informed me that I should consider having a septoplasty to correct my deviated septum. I saw three surgeons who agreed with the initial diagnosis. I decided to have my septoplasty... Read more

This is a procedure I have wanted to do forever. My mum had a nose job age 16, my dad has a big nose and my younger sister is having her nose done in August. I decided to have mine when I hit 16, but was not allowed to be put under general anesthetic due to a heart condition. I had to have heart... Read more

I had my dorsal hump reduction (part rhinoplasty) done because I have always been self conscious and embarrassed over my profile. I had my septoplasty done because during my consultation Dr. Pryor explained the damage to my septum would continue to cause my nose to collapse as I aged. The... Read more

I broke my nose as a child and have had a crooked nose and difficulty breathing since. The breathing seemed to be getting worse, so I finally went to an ENT doc, who suggested I also talk to a plastic surgeon about fixing the crookedness of my nose. I did, and decided on the above procedure... Read more

When I was a child, my brother and I were playing a game where we would run in opposite directions really fast towards the wall. The goal was to stop right before hitting the wall. I hit the wall though. Hard. My parents just hugged me and said to be careful. My nose grew strangely since then. I... Read more

Dr. Ridgway and his staff provided exceptional service throughout my treatment.

Dr. Ridgway completed a thorough... Read more

I actually regret delaying the surgery for nearly 5 years. By the age of 29 my nose was almost always 90% blocked. My left nostril was always completely blocked and the inferior turbinate on the right side was swollen and caused congestion. Also since I play the guitar, i was never happy with my... Read more

I received a septoplasty in efforts to correct my horribly deviated septum as a result of 4 broken noses. I've played softball since I was 10 years old and my first broken nose happened because I collided with the right fielder in attempts to catch a high fly ball. Instead I collided with her...

After a good 13 days of recovery, I had complications with my left nostril bleeding severely resulting in another operation (Epistaxis). Sometimes I felt like pressure is forming and I felt cracks and bubbles. And slight drips to my throat. But when coughed, no traces of blood. Am I paranoid or... Read more
