Can deviated septum effect on brain cells because of lack of oxygen?

No. Asked and answered previously. Ask as often as you want. Your body has the safety mechanism necessary to accommodate for any such deviation. It is not an issue.

A deviated nasal septum does not cause hypoxia (lack of oxygen). If you possess a deviated nasal septum, there might be an indication for surgery, but it will not correct any brain dysfunction, which would be caused by a co-morbidity.
