At ENT Specialists of Alberta, our ear nose and throat surgeons perform a range of nasal procedures designed to improve breathing, relieve nasal obstruction, and restore healthy airflow for patients across Alberta.
Septoplasty: Septoplasty is a surgical procedure used to reposition or straighten the bone and cartilage of the nasal septum. This helps open the nasal passages, reduce blockages, and improve airflow. Septoplasty is highly effective for patients experiencing breathing difficulty caused by a deviated septum.
Turbinate Surgery: Turbinate surgery addresses nasal airway obstruction caused by enlarged turbinates, which are structures inside the nose that help warm and filter air. When swollen, they can block airflow and cause chronic congestion.
Turbinate surgery may involve one or both of the following techniques:
Most nasal surgeries are performed on an outpatient basis. Procedure time typically ranges from about thirty minutes to ninety minutes, depending on the complexity of the surgery and whether multiple procedures are performed.
Nasal surgery is generally successful in helping patients breathe more comfortably and experience lasting relief from chronic nasal symptoms. Results vary based on the type of procedure and the severity of the condition, but many patients notice significant improvements in airflow, congestion, and overall quality of life.
Recovery: After surgery, your doctor will provide detailed aftercare instructions to support proper healing and the best possible outcome. Recovery times vary depending on the type and extent of surgery.
Follow Up: Regular follow up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your recovery and address any questions or concerns along the way.
