Complications may include: discomfort, mild bruising and swelling. There can be a temporary hollowing of the temple, numbness in the forehead and scalp as well as infection and bleeding. There may be a shift in brow appearance and movement and hair loss in the temporal areas. With septoplasty and turbinectomy, a dryness and a whistling sound from the nose can occur after surgery. Lastly, migraines may continue as there is no guarantee that a surgical treatment will be 100% effective.
