Septoplasty Vs Rhino-septoplasty for Deviated Septum?

June 20, 2009
Asked By:aura_sq in karachi

I have a deviated septum on the left side and a quite obvious hump on the nose. Is it possible to get rid of both problems with Septoplasty? Or do I have to go for Rhino-septoplasty (Rhinoplasty with Septoplasty) as doctor is suggesting in case hump is bothering me?But the dual procedure is going to cost me quite a big amount! Please tell me if septoplasty can help reduce the hump just as well. Thanks.

Answer: It depends- is the crooked part of the nose in the bony portion (closest to the face) or in the cartilage?
