Deviated Septum in Beverly Hills

We see many patients who come to us who are unhappy with their breathing.  Now, ours is not a typical “plastic surgery” practice.  First, of course, we only operate on the face and neck.  Secondly, 70% of the practice is devoted to nose surgery.  My background is a head and neck (ear, nose and throat) specialist and my additional formal training in cosmetic, plastic and reconstructive surgery of the nose plus my military experience gives me comfort in limiting my practice so narrowly and majoring in nasal surgery, including rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty, correction broken nose, nasal septoplasty and turbinate resection.

Patients do come to Beverly Hills because their sense, and it is usually correct, is that the most sophisticated superspecialists practice here.   We see patients with problems of a deviated septum because they have either had previously unsuccessful surgery or, in fact, had a rhinoplasty surgery and never had the problem of the crooked nose or the breathing addressed.  Typically when there is a deviated nasal septum, there will be in addition to a breathing difficulty, a high percentage of patients who also have crookedness to the nose.

The significance to the patient is that if you have trouble breathing and your nose is crooked, you will have to have surgery on that deviated nasal septum to achieve an optimal result.
