SINUS & ALLERGY TREATMENT
Turbinate Reduction
A procedure focused on shrinking or removing enlarged turbinates, the structures inside the nose that help warm and filter air, to clear nasal passageways. When enlarged turbinates are the source of chronic congestion, reducing their size can restore comfortable breathing.

UNDERSTANDING THE TREATMENT
Turbinate Reduction
When enlarged turbinates are the source of chronic congestion, reducing their size can restore comfortable breathing. Turbinates are structures inside the nose that warm and humidify the air you breathe, and when they become chronically enlarged, they can block airflow; turbinate reduction is a short outpatient procedure that reduces excess turbinate tissue while preserving normal nasal function, commonly used for chronic nasal congestion, turbinate hypertrophy, and breathing difficulty related to nasal allergies.
WHAT TO EXPECT
understanding the procedure
Your physician uses one of several precise techniques — including radiofrequency, coblation, or targeted tissue removal — to shrink the turbinate tissue from the inside, minimizing impact on the surrounding lining. Patients typically notice improved nasal airflow, often paired with reduced snoring and better response to allergy symptoms, and the procedure has a strong long-term track record for symptom relief.
