Nasal Procedures
Septoplasty
The septum is a structure made of cartilage and bone, which divides the inner part of the nose into two chambers, or nostrils. When the septum is crooked or bent, it is considered to be deviated. It can affect or block the airflow in one or both nostrils. You may be born with a deviated septum or it may be caused by an injury.
Our ENT specialists treat a deviated septum through septoplasty, a minimally-invasive procedure. We may also recommend it for removing nasal polyps, treating chronic sinusitis or nosebleeds, and correcting other conditions that block your nasal airways. Trust our ENT experts to deliver the best outcome and ensure that you breathe easy.

Coblation Turbinoplasty
Your nasal passages have a shell-shaped network of bones and tissues, called turbinates. Sometimes, they can swell, enlarge, or become displaced, causing a blocked nose, difficulty breathing, snoring, and recurrent sinus trouble.The solution is coblationturbinoplasty, a procedure that reduces the size of the turbinates. It offers a better outcome and promotes faster recovery with lesser pain, when compared to traditional turbinoplasty.
FESS (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery)
Many suffer from chronic sinusitis that affects their quality of life. Some may also develop sinus polyps or have difficulty breathing because of abnormalities in the sinus cavities. These can be effectively treated through FESS. During this minimally-invasive procedure, our ENT specialists identify sinus abnormalities and reposition or remove them with the highest precision through the use of state-of-the-art instruments. This will help the sinuses to drain more naturally. It is an effective solution for sinusitis.Cutting-edge Equipment
