Can Septoplasty Change Nose Shape

Septoplasty is a surgical procedure that is commonly performed to correct a deviated septum. The septum is the cartilage and bone that separates the two nostrils. When the septum is crooked or deviated, it can cause breathing difficulties and other nasal issues. While septoplasty is primarily performed to improve functionality, it can also lead to subtle changes in the shape of the nose.
