Title: A Life-Changing Experience with Professor Paul Chatrath Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) My journey to find a cure for my nasal breathing difficulties was long and arduous, spanning 15 grueling years and involving multiple unsuccessful surgeries. After countless visits to various specialists and two failed attempts at septoplasty, rhinoplasty, and turbine reduction, my hopes were dwindling, and my discomfort was escalating. The surgeries did not only fail to ameliorate my symptoms but seemed to exacerbate my breathing problems, casting a shadow of despair and frustration over my life. That was until I met Professor Paul Chatrath, an expert ENT specialist whose knowledge, professionalism, and proficiency utterly transformed my life. From the outset, Professor Chatrath differentiated himself with his empathetic approach and in-depth understanding of nasal problems. While previous doctors had been unable to diagnose my issue, he pinpointed the root cause with remarkable precision - an internal nasal valve collapse. This condition, often overlooked, was the culprit behind my years of distress and hardship, an invisible wall obstructing my airways. Professor Chatrath, staying at the forefront of medical developments in the UK, suggested the use of LATERA nasal implant and Internasal Z-plasty. This procedure was a far cry from the invasive and perilous surgeries I had previously undergone and held the risk of Empty Nose Syndrome. These non-invasive, state-of-the-art treatments represented a beacon of hope and a promise of a life unburdened by constant breathing difficulties. The surgeries were executed seamlessly, and recovery time was astonishingly brief. Thanks to Professor Chatrath's skill and the innovative LATERA technique, my years of struggling to breathe have finally come to an end. I am now able to take in deep, satisfying breaths through my nose, something that I had almost forgotten was possible. In retrospect, I wish I had found Professor Chatrath 15 years ago. His expertise and up-to-date knowledge could have saved me from the pain and complications of the previous surgeries. But I am forever grateful for finally discovering him and for his life-altering help. He is not just an exceptional medical professional, but also a compassionate human being who genuinely cares about his patients' well-being. To anyone struggling with persistent nasal issues, I cannot recommend Professor Paul Chatrath highly enough. His deep understanding, innovative solutions, and patient-centric approach make him an extraordinary ENT specialist and a true savior for patients like myself. Thanks to him, I am finally breathing easy.

I had a septorhinoplasty with Professor. Chatrath in October 2022 and I couldn’t be happier. From start to finish Prof Chatrath made sure I was comfortable and ensured I was making the correct decision. He guided me in the right direction and didn’t give me any unrealistic expectations. He listened carefully to everything I had to say and put any worries I had to rest. I am now 9 months post op and my nose is exactly how I wanted it to be. My nose was my biggest insecurity and at the age of 17 it was a big decision to get it done. It has truly changed my life. It has changed the way I look at myself, rather than looking in the mirror and just seeing my nose, I now see my face. I see the whole of me rather than one particular part that I fixated on. I don’t obsess over my nose anymore, I used to hate people looking at me from my side profile and now it doesn’t even cross my mind. My nose that professor chatrath has given me is truly amazing. The whole process has been a breeze, the day of surgery I was really looked after by P. Chatrath, the anaesthetist and the whole team at Nuffield hospital. I had my operation in the morning and by the evening I was good to go home. I had paracetamol and ibuprofen to help with the pain. It was more uncomfortable than anything else, it didn’t hurt but I did feel a lot of pressure on my nose. This lasted for a few days and then got better with each day. My bruising was very minimal around my eyes. And the stitches took just over two weeks to dissolve. My cast came off after a week, the feeing you get when it comes off is indescribable. I couldn’t believe that it was me, it was everything I had in mind but better. It instantly gave me such a confidence boost even if I did have swelling and stitches! The swelling takes a good 3 months to go down noticeably, then after another 3 months it goes down a lot more. I taped my nose every night for a good 6 months. It now is only swollen slightly at the tip. That can take over a year to completely go. I am extremely happy with my nose and SO grateful that I was able to have such a positive experience all thanks to professor Chatrath. Also thank you to the anaesthesiologist who really helped calm any nerves I had. Lastly thank you to the team at Nuffield health, Brentwood. I couldn’t be happier with my results, you have truly made such a positive impact on my life.

Epistaxis or nose bleeds are very common, particularly in children but also in adults. They can be caused by infections, allergic rhinitis, trauma and other medical conditions, and can be made worse by alterations in atmospheric conditions such as temperature and/or humidity changes. Treatments are available including topical nasal sprays and creams, nasal cauterisation and medications to stop bleeding.

Undergoing a rhinoplasty (or nose job) is a big decision for most people, as it potentially involves a change to a key part of your overall appearance and character. It is something not to go into lightly and you should do as much research on the procedure as you can. There are lots of considerations, including what you would like to achieve (eg. nasal tip, dorsum, nasal base etc), how it will be done (eg. open, closed) and to what extent you would like to change your nose. This is where the majority of the time will be spent, in order to ensure as good preoperative planning as possible. A brief psychological review is also likely, and image manipulation can also be useful in some cases. Please click on the link for more information.

Having a blocked nose can be very troublesome and debilitating. It affects how you feel, can make you mouth breathe and snore at night and can cause tiredness and headaches.

ClarifixTM cryotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment option for patients with a runny nose. It involves freezing the nerve endings at the back of the nose under local or general anaesthetic, with few if any side effects, and a good chance of improvement of your symptoms. It is important to be properly investigated to rule out or fully treat any allergies that you might have, and to manage any other coexistent conditions such as a deviated nasal septum. If you have been struggling with a very runny nose and have tried all other medical options available, it might be worth considering this.
