Chronic Nasal Treatments

New non-invasive, temperature controlled radiofrequency treatments provide lasting relief for chronic stuffy, runny noses and post-nasal drip. With minimal to no discomfort and no downtime, these treatments are performed in-office by our trained Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) specialist.

Chronic Rhinitis: Runny/Stuffy Nose/Post-Nasal Drip

If frequent runny nose, post-nasal drip or congestion extend beyond seasonal allergies, chronic rhinitis may be to blame. Millions suffer from this often undiagnosed condition, which is caused by abnormal nerve signals and inflamed soft tissues.

Symptoms

  • Constant runny nose
  • Throat clearing, coughing, or itchy throat from persistent post-nasal drip
  • Feeling stuffed up frequently
  • Excessive sneezing 
  • Nasal itching

Treatment

After numbing the nose, a small wand applies low-temperature radiofrequency energy to precisely target overactive nerves and shrink inflamed soft tissues.

Stuffy Nose: Nasal Airway Obstruction

When it’s difficult/nearly impossible to breathe through the nose, nasal airway obstruction (NAO) may be to blame. More than 20 million Americans have NAO, which is caused by an anatomical narrowing or blockage in the nasal airway.

Symptoms

  • Difficulty breathing through nose
  • Blocked feeling in nose
  • Nasal congestion
  • Difficulty sleeping and fatigue
  • Struggling while exercising to breathe through nose
  • Frequent mouth breathing

Treatment

After numbing the nose, a small wand applies low-temperature radio-frequency energy to gently remodel the nasal passage to improve airflow.
