Rhinoplasty and septoplasty differance

Septoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct a deviated nasal septum, which is a common cause of nasal obstruction and other respiratory problems. The procedure involves making incisions in the nasal septum to realign it, remove any obstructions or structures that are causing the deviation, and then repositioning the septum to a straight, midline position. The incisions are closed with sutures or nasal packing, and the patient typically remains in the hospital for a short period of time. The recovery period is usually 1-2 weeks, with full healing taking several months. During this time, it’s common to experience some swelling, bruising, and pain, but these symptoms should subside over time. In some cases, a septoplasty may be performed in conjunction with other procedures such as a rhinoplasty to improve the appearance of the nose.

Rhinoplasty and septoplasty are both surgical procedures that involve the nose. Rhinoplasty is a cosmetic procedure to reshape the nose for aesthetic purposes, while septoplasty is a functional procedure to correct a deviated septum, which is the wall inside the nose that separates the nostrils. Rhinoplasty can be purely cosmetic or combined with septoplasty for functional and aesthetic improvements.
