Balloon Sinuplasty

How a little Balloon restores sinus drainage

Balloon sinus dilation restores quality of life for our patients with nasal blockages and congestion.

Facial pain and pressure. Discolored, chronic nasal drainage.  Bad breath.  Heachache.  Fatigue from sleep disruption.  A blocked nose that makes breathing a chore.  These are all symptoms patients regularly report living with because they fear an invasive surgery is their only choice.  Dr. Berger is pleased to offer a better answer.
“Many people who suffer with sinusitis are totally unaware that a simple in-office procedure called balloon sinus dilation can restore drainage and alleviate symptoms in a matter of minutes,” says Dr. Berger, a leader and innovator in this procedure, which he calls a “game-changer” in the treatment of recurring or persistent nasal congestion.  It’s easy for the patient, reduces costs, and has an impressive success rate.

What is Balloon Sinuplasty?

Balloon Sinuplasty is a minimally invasive sinus procedure performed on eligible patients who suffer with chronic sinusitis.  Tiny balloons are placed in key places in the nose and sinuses, which are then dilated to expand and widen the sinus passageways then removed.  The goal is to reshape the anatomy to restore proper drainage.  It is proven to be safe and is effective for those who are seeking relief from uncomfortable sinus pain symptoms.  Balloon Sinuplasty is less invasive than traditional sinus surgery and involves no cutting or removal of bone or tissue.
“Our philosophy is to give each patient VIP status.  “We want every patient to have an exceptional experience when they are under our care, and we go to extra lengths to make it happen.”
