Scarless functional rhinoplasty can be performed solely to fix nose breathing issues or in combination with cosmetic Scarless Nose rhinoplasty. Whatever option you choose, fixing nose breathing issues is always done with a scarless approach at the Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty Center by Dr. Deepak Dugar. Addressing a deviated septum and other anatomical concerns through functional rhinoplasty is Dr. Dugar’s passion, as he trained as a head, neck, ear, nose, and throat surgeon; as such, operating inside the nose has become second nature for him. Many plastic surgeons who don’t come from an ear, nose, and throat background do not understand the intricacies of the internal nasal anatomy and can stumble when addressing breathing issues. This is where Dr. Dugar’s rigorous training sets him apart from the average plastic surgeon.
Breathing issues can arise from a variety of factors, including:
Septum – addressed with a septoplasty procedure
Turbinates – addressed with turbinate procedures
Nasal valve – addressed with nasal valve repair
Allergies – addressed with medications
Polyps, chronic sinusitis, or other medical conditions
