Can Someone Get ENS Just from Having a Rhinoplasty/septoplasty?

Asked By:Rayah7 in Santa Rosa CA

I want to have a rhinoplasty and I have a slightly deviated septum too. But I don't want to go through with it I can end up with Empty Nose Syndrome. Is ENS only something that occurs with a turbinate reduction or can it occur even with a rhinopasty and septoplasty too?
