Procedure

During the procedure, your ENT physician will first apply local anesthesia to numb the inside of your nose. Then, they will insert a small wand into your nostril. The wand uses low-temperature radiofrequency (RF) energy to target and calm down the overactive nerves that cause rhinitis symptoms. The RF energy can also help shrink inflamed soft tissue in the nose to relieve congestion.

The entire procedure takes about 15 minutes and you can return to your normal activities immediately afterwards.

Outcomes

Studies have shown that RhinAer treatment can be effective in reducing chronic rhinitis symptoms. A two-year study published in the International Forum of Allergy & Rhinology found that RhinAer treatment resulted in a significant improvement in symptoms through two years. The study also found that 80% of patients had a minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of 30% or greater reduction in their symptoms from baseline.

Patients who receive the RhinAer treatment typically report reductions in:

runny or stuffy nose
sneezing
itching
postnasal drip

Hear It From Real Patients

Chronic rhinitis kept Janet from enjoying the great outdoors. After her RhinAer treatment, that all changed. Listen to her experience and the difference it has made on her life.

Janet's Story—It started probably when I was in grammar school I have always had issues with runny nose, stuffiness. If the wind blows and there's an allergen in it, I'm sneezing 50 times and it just doesn't stop. I used to go through a box of tissues every couple of days and it was just brutal. Couldn't do have the things I wanted to outdoors because if the wind blew, I was in trouble.

I feel like I can live again and do the things I like to do. I can go outdoors, walk, just do about everything without having to carry a box of tissues and stop every 10 minutes to blow my nose and avoid people when I'm sneezing. What I would say to someone who was contemplating having this done? Do it. Do not think twice about it, it was the best thing I've ever did. I've had the same box of tissues for over a month, and I'm not the one using it, which is really nice! So, it's a big difference. Big difference.
