Vivaer® Nasal Airway Remodeling
Millions of people suffer from nasal airway obstruction, which makes it difficult to breathe through the nose. Until now, your only options were medications or breathing strips that offer temporary relief, and surgeries that are invasive, painful, and often have a long recovery period. Vivaer® Nasal Airway Remodeling is a treatment that can be performed in your ENT physician’s office or clinic to help you breathe more easily.
Nasal Obstruction Problems
Nasal breathing is a very important function of human life and any obstruction in the nasal airway, also known as a congested or blocked nose, can dramatically impact the quality of life.
Nasal Airway Obstruction (NOA) can lead to the following symptoms:
- Chronic nasal congestion or stuffiness
- Persistent nasal blockage or obstruction
- Difficulty breathing through nose
- Difficulty sleeping, snoring and fatigue
- Inability to get enough air during physical activities
Nasal Obstruction Treatment
Nasal airway obstruction has traditionally been treated by ongoing home remedies or traditional nasal surgery.
Ongoing Home Remedies
External breathing strips, internal nasal dilators and sprays are some of the ongoing home remedies you might have tried. Home remedies never quite fix the problem nor offer lasting relief from symptoms.
Traditional Nasal Surgery
Traditional nasal surgery has been the only course of treatment for advanced nasal problems. While it may be effective in many cases, it does not always address the problems of nasal blockage caused by narrow nasal valves.
Vivaer® Nasal Airway Remodeling
Today there is a third option: Vivaer® Nasal Airway Remodeling. With the Vivaer® treatment, the inside of your nose is gently reshaped using low-temperature radio frequency energy with lasting results, without affecting the outward appearance of your nose.
