Haven't you suffered from a stuffy nose long enough?
Somnoplasty®
Somnoplasty® is a fast, effective way to relieve chronic nasal obstruction
due to enlarged inferior turbinates without the pain and inconvenience associated
with traditional techniques.
Unlike standard electrosurgical approaches, the Somnoplasty®
System continuously monitors temperature, power, and impedance to provide the
physician with complete control over the procedure. The Somnoplasty Procedure
is performed in our office under local anesthesia.
Due
to the partially insulated electrode and the controlled temperature used in
treatment, the delicate mucosa is preserved and patients experience minimal,
if any, crusting and bleeding. The procedure itself typically takes less than
two minutes per turbinate. No nasal packing is required and most patients do
not require any kind of postoperative analgesic.
