Balloon Sinuplasty
Quick relief for long standing sinus pain and inflammation.
Addressing Sinus Pain
Balloon sinuplasty is a convenient in-office, outpatient procedure that takes less than an hour. A small, flexible balloon catheter opens up nasal passageways to relieve both pressure and pain, and 96% of patients experience positive results. Because it’s minimally invasive, recovery time is significantly quicker compared to traditional sinus surgery.
Are You a Candidate for Balloon Sinuplasty?
If you experience chronic sinusitis, symptoms lasting more than 3 months, or if you experience recurrent episodes of acute sinusitis, symptoms lasting 4-6 weeks, you may be a candidate for balloon sinuplasty.
Sinusitis causes inflammation or swelling in the sinus tissue lining, often leading to chronic pain. The blockages from swelling are prone to germs and infections that might last a few days or a few weeks and cause painful symptoms the entire time.
At your visit, our providers will complete a thorough evaluation. This may include nasal endoscopy, CT scan, sinus culture and additional medical therapy.
