Rhinoplasty for deviated septum - Cork

    Hi there. I'm 28 years old and I've had a deviated septum all my life. One nostril does not have much air flow and i tend to get nose bleeds from the other side now and again. There is also a cosmetic element as the DS makes my lower nose look a bit to one side.

    I've recently been thinking that it's something I'd like to correct as it is annoying. There is also a bony bump on my nose that is more to the left than to the right which doesn't help either. I'd consider getting pared down if possible.

    I was wondering if anyone has had this done and what their experieces have been like. What are the costs, recovery times, success rates etc? Would the DS part be covered by medical card or any insurance plans? Has anyone had the bone shaved in addition to correcting a DS?

    Is there anyone in the Cork area that is sufficiently competent in this type of work. Or would I have to go further afield. I don't want to travel abroad for it just in case there were any complications, I'd prefer to get it done closer to home.

    I'm a bit clueless in all this. All of your advice and experiences are gratefully received. Thanks.
