π Nasal Deformities Explained: Causes, Types & Treatment Options
β Trusted by Patients at the Best ENT Clinic in Dubai
Nasal deformities can do more than affect your appearance β they can also impact your breathing, sleep quality, and confidence. At ENT Clinic of Excellence, the best ENT clinic in Dubai, we understand how important it is to address both the functional and cosmetic aspects of nasal issues.
In this blog, we will explain the common causes, types, and effective treatment options for nasal deformities β so you can breathe easier and feel better.
𧬠What Are Nasal Deformities?
A nasal deformity is any abnormal shape, size, or structure of the nose β whether on the outside (visible) or inside (such as the septum or nasal valve). These can be:
- Congenital (present at birth) πΆ
- Acquired due to trauma or previous surgery π€
- A combination of both
At our Dubai ENT clinic, we treat patients with a wide range of nasal deformities, from minor cosmetic concerns to complex breathing issues.
π Common Causes of Nasal Deformities
πΆ 1. Birth Defects (Congenital)
Some people are born with a nasal deformity such as:
- A deviated septum
- A crooked nose bridge
- Underdeveloped cartilage or nasal passages
These issues may not be noticeable at first but can become more problematic as the nose grows.
π€ 2. Trauma or Injury
A broken nose from:
- Falls
- Car accidents π
- Sports injuries π₯
- Fights or impact to the face
can cause visible deformity or internal blockages. If untreated, these injuries can lead to chronic breathing problems and sinus infections.
π§ͺ 3. Infection, Tumors, or Failed Surgeries
Previous surgeries or infections can result in nasal collapse, scarring, or asymmetry. Our ENT surgeon in Dubai specializes in reconstructive procedures to restore both function and appearance.
π Types of Nasal Deformities
Here are the most commonly treated nasal deformities:
- Deviated Septum β The wall between your nostrils is off-center
- Crooked Nose β The nose appears slanted or twisted
- Saddle Nose Deformity β A sunken bridge caused by cartilage loss
- Nasal Valve Collapse β Narrowing of the nasal airway, restricting airflow
- Nostril Asymmetry β Uneven or misshaped nostrils
All of these can affect breathing, appearance, and self-confidence. π·π
