Nasalase®
Nasalase® performed with the Advanced Fotona Laser is a patented, innovative, non-invasive laser treatment that aims to improve nasal airflow by strengthening and supporting the soft tissues of the nasal passages and valve area. This in-office procedure uses advanced laser technology to treat obstructions caused by weak cartilage, chronic congestion, or other anatomical factors, without the need for incisions, needles, or downtime.
Benefits of Nasalase®
Reduces Snoring
By ensuring the nasal airway stays open, Nasalase can help reduce the vibration of soft tissues that cause snoring sounds, leading to quieter breathing.
Increases Oxygenation
Unrestricted nasal airflow allows for better oxygen exchange in the lungs, which can help reduce daytime fatigue and leave you feeling more refreshed upon waking.
Alleviates Sleep Apnea Symptoms
For individuals with sleep-disordered breathing, improved nasal airflow can lessen the severity of sleep apnea events by making it easier to breathe fully during the night.
Enhanced Sleep Quality
By experiencing fewer breathing interruptions, individuals can achieve deeper, more restorative sleep, which has positive impacts on overall health, including potentially lowering blood pressure.
Promotes Nasal Breathing
Nasal breathing, as opposed to mouth breathing, offers numerous health benefits during sleep, including the filtration, humidification, and warming of air, which is gentler on the lungs.
Procedure Overview
The Nasalase® procedure utilizes a specialized dental laser to deliver gentle, controlled thermal energy to the targeted tissues within and around the nasal valve. The procedure is quick, typically lasting less than 30 minutes, and most patients can return to their normal activities immediately afterward.
Tissue Targeting: The laser energy is precisely applied to the soft tissues of the nose, focusing on areas prone to collapse or swelling.
1
Collagen Stimulation: The applied heat stimulates the body's natural healing response, promoting the production and remodeling of new collagen fibers.
2
Tissue Tightening & Strengthening: The new collagen causes the treated tissues to become firmer and more robust, providing better structural support to the nasal passages.
3
Improved Airflow: This tightening effect helps prevent the nostril structure from collapsing during inhalation, effectively opening the nasal airways and reducing resistance to airflow.
