What is Balloon Sinuplasty?

Balloon Sinuplasty is minimally-invasive sleep apnea and snoring procedure that opens blocked sinus cavities and relieves the pain and pressure associated with chronic sinusitis (inflammation of the sinus lining). This in-office procedure usually takes less than 30 minutes and can be performed using local anesthesia.

What Conditions Does Balloon Sinuplasty Treat?

Balloon sinuplasty surgery is performed by ear, nose, and throat specialists with eos sleep in order to treat:

The Balloon Sinuplasty Procedure

During the balloon sinuplasty procedure, skilled ENT doctors with eos sleep open the blocked sinus cavities using the following steps:

  • Guide a wire catheter and a small, flexible balloon into the inflamed sinus
  • Slowly inflate the balloon to expand the sinus opening
  • Spray saline into the affected area to flush out trapped mucus and pus
  • Remove the system, leaving the nasal passage open and restoring normal sinus drainage

The procedure does not use any cutting and preserves the original anatomy and mucosal tissue making recovery time minimal. Patients can expect to return to normal activities shortly after the procedure.
