Nasal septum correction — will I retain my easa class 2?

My humble greetings!

I hold a 2nd class EASA medical and an EASA PPL. Today I visited an ENT doctor (ear, nose, and throat) and she told me that my nasal septum had a bad deviation which is the reason for my frequent rhinitis and other problems. She recommeded that my nasal septum is surgically corrected. She explained that in my case the surgeon will dissect the nasal septum and then remove the badly deviated piece of a bone or cartilage. I am quite enthusiastic about the thing since it will finally permit me to breath well. But what about my 2nd class medical? Will I pass my next medical exam after this operation?

I'll appreciate your help on the subject. Help of those who have an aviation medical background is especially appreciated.
