A septorhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves both the nose itself and the inner nasal septum (the tissue dividing the nasal cavities.)
A rhinoplasty is usually performed for cosmetic or aesthetic reasons – correcting uneven appearance after an accident, or removing natural bumps from the contour of the nose. A septorhinoplasty combines this with treating nasal obstruction leading to potential breathing difficulties. Therefore a septorhinoplasty provides an aesthetic improvement paired with significant medical benefits.
