SeptAlign: A Modern Solution for Nasal Obstruction in New York City
Breathing easily should be something you never have to think about, yet millions of people suffer from chronic nasal obstruction due to a deviated septum. Traditionally, treatment required invasive surgery and long recovery times. Today, SeptAlign provides a revolutionary, minimally invasive alternative – and it’s now available in New York City from Dr. Gregory Levitin, one of the nation’s leading ENT specialists.
Dr. Levitin, Director of Open Sinus Ear, Nose & Throat in Manhattan, is recognized for pioneering advanced solutions for sinus and nasal conditions. With his extensive training and decades of experience treating complex nasal and sinus disorders, he is among the first ENTs in New York City to offer SeptAlign, helping patients breathe better without the downtime of traditional surgery.
What Is SeptAlign?
SeptAlign is an innovative, minimally invasive treatment designed to correct mild to moderate septal deviations that cause nasal obstruction. Unlike traditional septoplasty, which requires cutting and repositioning cartilage under general anesthesia, SeptAlign uses a specialized implant to gently reshape and stabilize the nasal septum.
Key benefits of SeptAlign include:
- Minimally invasive – no surgical cutting or tissue removal
- Performed in-office under local anesthesia
- Fast recovery with minimal downtime
- Long-lasting results without major surgery
- Improved breathing and airflow through the nose
For patients in New York City seeking a modern alternative to septoplasty, SeptAlign offers an effective option with far less disruption to daily life.

The SeptAlign Procedure Experience
At Open Sinus ENT, the SeptAlign procedure is performed comfortably in-office:
- Evaluation – Dr. Levitin performs a detailed nasal exam, often using nasal endoscopy, to determine if you are a candidate for SeptAlign.
- Preparation – Local anesthesia is applied for comfort.
- Implant Placement – The SeptAlign implant is carefully positioned to reshape and stabilize the deviated septum.
- Immediate Relief – Many patients experience noticeable improvement in breathing within days.
- Quick Recovery – Normal activities can typically be resumed within 24–48 hours.
Unlike traditional septoplasty, there are no external incisions, and patients enjoy a faster, easier recovery.
Who Is a Candidate for SeptAlign?
SeptAlign may be right for you if you suffer from:
- Chronic nasal congestion or obstruction
- Difficulty breathing through one or both nostrils
- A deviated septum causing airflow restriction
- Intolerance of CPAP due to nasal blockage
- Snoring or disrupted sleep caused by poor airflow
Not every case of nasal obstruction can be corrected with SeptAlign. During your consultation, Dr. Levitin will determine whether this procedure or another minimally invasive treatment—such as Rhinaer, NeuroMark, or Vivaer—offers the best outcome for you.
