VivAer® Patient Testimonial
VivAer® treatment is minimally invasive.
VivAer® is designed to alleviate nasal airway obstruction. It is particularly beneficial for individuals suffering from conditions such as nasal valve collapse. Performed using a small, wand-like device, VivAer® reshapes the nasal tissues through the application of controlled, low-temperature radiofrequency energy. This energy modifies the tissue of the nasal valve area, improving airflow without removing any tissue or changing the nose’s exterior appearance. As an in-office treatment, VivAer® is noted for its minimal downtime, allowing patients to return to their daily activities quickly. The process is typically painless, with local anesthesia used to ensure comfort, making it an appealing option for those seeking effective, lasting relief from nasal blockages without undergoing surgery.

- Trouble breathing through your nose: You find it difficult to breathe comfortably through your nose in the daytime as well as when you sleep.
- Difficulty sleeping: Because you struggle with breathing through your nose at night, you may find it difficult to fall asleep or stay asleep. Many people will benefit with use of Breathe Right strips.
- Nasal Congestion: Your nose feels stuffy, never entirely clear. This may be due to the repeated collapse of the nasal sidewalls when you inhale through the nose.
- Difficulty breathing during physical exertion: Because there is an increase in demand for air when you exercise, the increased airflow through the nose causes greater collapse of the nasal sidewalls, thus contributing to greater obstruction in the nose.
