Sinus surgery is the process of opening up your sinus passageways and clearing blockages. If you have recurrent sinus infections , a stuffy nose , nasal polyps, or allergies , sinus surgery may help you.
Now called functional endoscopic sinus surgery, or FESS, this procedure is safe and minimally invasive. Our techniques reduce surgical pain, and our patients report significant relief in symptoms.
You need experienced ENT surgeons with the technology to ensure your sinus surgery is a success.
FESS is the standard technique in sinus surgery. It is performed with an endoscope and is carried out through the nostrils to functionally improve the sinuses. It clears the sinuses of obstructive tissues and other blockages.
When needed for important areas near the eyes and skull base, a three-dimensional mapping system is used for accuracy.
Removal of nasal polyps can be performed in the office or under anesthesia safely and with minimal pain.
The recovery period after a sinus surgery varies from person to person, depending on the type of surgery done and the patient’s age and general health. Because the surgery is performed without skin incision, pain is often minimal.
