UTAH FUNCTIONAL NASAL SURGERY IN SALT LAKE CITY

A well functioning nose and the ability to breathe air through both passage of the nose are important to your quality of life. Nasal obstruction is most commonly caused by a deviated septum and/or nasal valve collapse. If you’ve got problems with nasal obstruction, you know how annoying this problem can be. Surgery to relieve nasal obstruction is usually covered by most major insurance companies.

Most nasal surgeries can be performed on an outpatient basis in a relatively short surgical procedure. This is particularly true when no previous surgery or trauma to the nose has occurred. For patients that have had previous surgery then revision nasal surgery is the next treatment option.

The recuperation period is from 5-14 days based on the type of surgery you require.

After undergoing Functional Nasal Surgery it is common to take 5-10 days off to recover. Many patients view this necessary time off from work as on opportune moment to get something cosmetic performed that they have long desired but not had the time to pursue.

Depending on which procedure you have performed, when you return, they may attribute your refreshed appearance to your vacation rather than realizing you've had cosmetic surgery. Learn More
