How much defect will be rectified depends on the present extent. Otherwise, 100 percent results are not achieved.

Hello,

DNS or deviated nasal septum is present in a large proportion of the general population. It generally doesn't need correction unless it is symptomatic. Symptoms like a stuffy, blocked nose, difficulty breathing, symptoms in the other nostril or for cosmetic reasons. The surgery is a minor one. It would take about one hour to perform, after which your nose will be packed with gauze for a while. You would probably be discharged in 2-3 days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
