Septal Perforation Closure in Dubai — Breathe, Heal, and Protect Your Nose
Breathe comfortably again—relieve whistling, bleeding, and dryness while protecting your nose’s shape and function.
A septal perforation is a hole in the wall that divides the nostrils. It can lead to whistling, dryness and crusting, recurrent nosebleeds, nasal blockage, and unpleasant odor—and over time may weaken support, risking tip droop or saddle-nose deformity. With septal perforation closure in Dubai, Dr. Escobar restores comfort, airflow, and structural stability, often using a scarless (endonasal) approach when suitable to avoid external scars and support a smoother recovery.

Septal Perforation Closure in Dubai
Why treat a septal perforation in Dubai?
Treating a septal perforation helps stop bleeding, crusting, and whistling; improves airflow to reduce obstruction; and protects the structural support of the nose. Early closure lowers the risk of progressive cartilage loss and future cosmetic deformity (including tip weakness or saddle-nose). In short, timely septal perforation closure in Dubai restores comfort, breathing, and long-term stability
Common causes of a Septal Perforation in Dubai
Previous surgery or trauma, chronic inflammation or infection, intranasal drug exposure, septal cautery, aggressive picking, occupational irritants, and certain autoimmune conditions. A careful specialist work-up identifies the underlying cause so your repair plan is effective and durable.
What to expect: step-by-step
1. Consultation & diagnosis:
Endoscopic exam, measurement of perforation size, assessment of blood supply, structural support, and valve function; review of causes (labs if indicated).
2. Personalized surgical plan
Choice of scarless endonasal closure when feasible; tailored flap design and graft selection by size and location (small, medium, large) and tissue quality.
3. Recovery & aftercare
Humidification, ointments/saline, and activity guidance to protect the repair. Most patients resume desk work in about 1 week; healing matures over several weeks.
FAQs — Septal Perforation Closure in Dubai
Will my perforation definitely close?
Success depends on size, location, blood supply, and cause. Many small-to-medium perforations (<2 cm) close reliably with the right technique; large defects (>2cm) are evaluated individually and may need staged strategies.
Is every repair scarless?
Most are endonasal. Complex cases may require limited external access, but Dr. Escobar prioritizes internal incisions whenever safe and effective.
How long is downtime?
Typical desk work: ~1 week. Exercise and nose blowing are restricted initially to protect the repair.
What if I’m not a candidate for closure?
A septal button can relieve symptoms (crusting/whistling) and may be used temporarily or long term, depending on your case.
