Overview of Balloon Sinusplasty
Balloon sinuplasty is an FDA approved sinus procedure where a sinus balloon dilation device is used to open up the sinus opening. It was FDA approved in 2005 and since then more than half a million of these have been done with a very high level of success. At Triangle Sinus Center balloon sinuplasty procedures are performed in our cutting-edge, state-of-the-art procedure room. Minimally invasive technique of balloon sinuplasty developed by our expert sinus surgeons allows for a very high success rate, very low surgical risk, no cutting and minimal pain after the procedure. This allows for speedy recovery with little discomfort. Most of our patients can resume regular activities within 24 hours after the procedure.
During the procedure our board-certified anesthesiologist will put you to sleep, so that you have no discomfort during the procedure. Our expert sinus surgeons will then place an endoscope in your nose to enable them to determine the source of the inflammation and to address the area that is narrow. They then place a little balloon catheter to expand the sinus opening followed by using a suction (vacuum) device to clean up the sinuses. This not only clears your sinuses but also allows for the sinus drainage to drain in a more natural pathway and also allows us to deliver medication to the sinuses more effectively. Thereby reducing the inflammation of the sinuses. After the balloon catheter has naturally expanded your sinuses, it is withdrawn. Expect to see significantly fewer chronic sinusitis symptoms after the procedure.
