the benefits of balloon sinuplasty 1

safe and effective
While use of any surgical instrument involves some risk, clinical studies have shown the Balloon SinuplastyTM system to be safe and effective in relieving symptoms of sinusitis.

minimally invasive
The technology uses small, soft, flexible devices that enter entirely through the nostrils. These devices gently open blocked sinus openings, and in many cases, without tissue or bone removal.

reduced bleeding
Because in many instances no tissue or bone is removed when using this technology, there may be reduced bleeding associated with the procedure. As a result, the need for uncomfortable nasal packing may also be eliminated.

improved recovery time
While recovery time varies with each patient, many people can return to normal activities within 24 hours.

does not limit treatment options
This technology is an endoscopic tool and may be used with other medical therapies or sinus surgery techniques. It does not limit future treatment options if you have progressive disease.

As with use of any surgical instrument, there are risks, and results may vary from patient to patient. Talk with your doctor about your specific condition to find out if using the Balloon SinuplastyTM system is right for you.
