more about deviated septum options

A deviated septum is corrected with a surgical procedure called septoplasty. Depending on the severity of the deviation, a septoplasty may consist of reforming and repositioning the cartilage to support the nose and direct airflow.

In less severe cases, a simple realignment of the septum is all that is required to correct the deviation.
