Looking for a long term solution for your ongoing sinus infections or seasonal allergies? Tired of the discomfort, facial pain, pressure, headache, sinus blockage, itchy eyes, and runny nose? Balloon sinuplasty is an easy solution, a minimally invasive treatment that relieves sinus problems without surgery.
To ensure you stay as comfortable as possible, a general anesthesia is used during the balloon sinuplasty procedure. An endoscope with a small balloon at the end is placed through the nasal cavity. The small ballon is gently inflated, restructuring the passageway and pushing the tissue of the sinuses back. This allows for proper nasal drainage.
To flush out and remove any bacteria and mucus build up, a saline solution is gently used. There is very little recovery time and patients can see results in as little as 20 to 30 minutes after the procedure.
The entire treatment takes under an hour. Just imagine in just 45 minutes your sinus passages will be opened up and you can finally breathe easy. There isn’t any cutting of nasal tissue or bone. You don’t have to worry about any pain or facial bruising, you can even return to work the same day. Most patients will feel an immediate difference, all the tension and stress is gone, you can smell and breathe normally.
