im a plastic surgeon so i can telll you that the results are different for each patien, but in general it is gonna help you breath better, you´ll notice it after the surgery, talk to your doctor about all your questions before the surgery and take your mom with you so she can understand better how much surgery can do for you, good luck

I had a Deviated Septum, and had the Surgery last year. I was hoping it would also help my awful snoring. I had the Surgery done and they also cut part of the Vulva off the back of my throat, he said mine was to long. It has helped me with my Allergys and Sinus's. I still have to take daily meds for them but I do not get the sores in my nose anymore. I will be honest with you though. I have never been more miserable in my life after having the Surgery. You have to wear that packing in your nose for 10-14 weeks. You cannot breathe out of your nose at all!! I am glad I had the Surgery now that its over with. It will help you...

My son had this surgery and it definitely helped. He said he feels relief for the first time in a long time. The catch, everything can go back to like it was. Didn't your doctor tell you this? It's basically take a chance!!
