Are you in need of deviated septum repair surgery and are searching for a septoplasty specialist in the Pasadena, CA, area? The nasal septum is the backbone of the nose and separates the two nasal passages. In order for the nose to be straight and balanced, the base or foundation of the nose must also be straight. This foundation is called the septum. The septum can be deviated as a result of a prior injury, disease or it can be congenital, causing breathing issues and nose deformity. At Los Angeles Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, Dr. John Anastasatos offers Pasadena patients surgery for a deviated septum that can be combined with rhinoplasty to reshape and restore the function of the nose.

Dr. Anastasatos brings deep academic and surgical credentials to septoplasty surgery for Pasadena patients. He has presented at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Grand Rounds on advanced surgical techniques — teaching credentials at one of the leading medical institutions in Southern California. He trained in plastic surgery under Dr. Luis Vasconez at the University of Alabama at Birmingham — one of history’s foremost plastic surgeons and the inventor of the endoscopic brow lift technique used worldwide today. With over two decades of facial surgical expertise in Beverly Hills since 2007, he is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and named by The Luxe Insider as one of the Top 10 Plastic Surgeons in the World.

The septum is a column of cartilage that is integral to the structure of the nose. If it is damaged, the shape and function of the nose can be compromised. A deviated septum occurs when the septum is displaced sideways, curving instead of remaining a straight barrier between the nostrils. This can impact nasal function. Many people with a deviated septum experience congestion, sinus issues, snoring and breathing difficulties. Plus, a deviated septum can impact the aesthetics of the nose, creating a crooked or distracting shape. If you live in the Pasadena, CA, area and are in need of deviated septum repair, contact us to schedule a septoplasty consultation to find out the best option to restore the function and improve the shape of your nose.

Deviated Septum Repair Specialist Near Pasadena

To repair a deviated septum, septoplasty or septum surgery is required. Dr. Anastasatos is a septoplasty repair specialist who can perform deviated septum surgery alone or in conjunction with rhinoplasty. Septoplasty performed alone will not alter the outer portion of the nose, only address the deviated septum. However, septoplasty can also be completed in tandem with rhinoplasty, reshaping the nose inside and out for better breathing function and to improve the aesthetics.
