Dear Doctors, I had a huge hump and a major deviation in my septum. I had to do septoplasty sooner or later because of breathing problems. My surgeon is board certified and has experience of 35 years. One of the 1st board certified plastic surgeons. Anyways, you can see that my bridge is not straight after the rhinoseptoplasty.
