How Balloon Sinuplasty Can Relieve Your Sinus Issues

Are you tired of dealing with relentless sinus congestion and enduring the painful symptoms? Our ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialists, Dr. Robert Youkilis, Dr. Jeffrey Beach, and Dr. Seth Bruggers of Northside ENT in Carmel, IN, implore you to consider the benefits of Balloon Sinuplasty.

What Is Balloon Sinuplasty and How Does It Work?

For those who are dealing with chronic sinusitis and antibiotics don't seem to relieve any of your symptoms, you likely make an ideal candidate for Balloon Sinuplasty.

Balloon Sinuplasty technology uses a small, flexible, balloon catheter, that aims to open up your blocked sinus passageways to improve and restore the proper sinus drainage.

When the sinus balloon catheter inflates, it simultaneously reopens your sinus walls while protecting the structure of your sinus lining. Once the balloon is inflated, a saline solution is sprayed into the sinus to clear out the built up mucus and pus.

The minimally-invasive procedure is a very safe and effective way to relieve your symptoms from chronic sinusitis.

What Are The Benefits of Balloon Sinuplasty?

Relieving symptoms of chronic sinusitis does not have to mean an invasive surgical procedure that involves a lengthy recovery period or several post-operative visits. Your Northside ENT specialists in Carmel, IN, are happy to share the benefits of Balloon Sinuplasty, such as:

  • an in-office procedure
  • minimally-invasive, in other words, no surgical cutting, tissue removal, or nasal packing
  • short-term recovery (i.e. up to 24-48 hours total)
  • less risks and more cost-effective than most surgeries
  • exclusively uses local anesthetics
  • immediate long-term relief
  • FDA-approved

Following the procedure, it is common to feel mild discomfort around your nasal area, and is often remedied by over-the-counter pain relievers. You will also need to maintain saline rinses to continue flushing out the mucus and any other residual buildup to prevent an infection or scarring in your nose.
