Chronic Snoring Treatment

Chronic snoring can also be treated by the newest surgery for snoring; it is still an out-patient procedure often preformed right in the doctor’s office. The radiofrequency waves are used to reduce soft-palate tissue volume. The snoring has been shown to decrease significantly with this procedure.

Patients average a 69 per cent reduction in snoring and nearly 40 per cent reduction of waking tired after sleeping. Also this surgery is safe enough to be used for the same problem twice if necessary to produce sufficiently taut skin and eliminate or decrease the incidence of snoring. Ask your doctor if you can enjoy a better quality of life by opting for this surgical procedure.

However, there are only 300 doctors in the United States qualified to perform the newest surgery for snoring, Somnoplasty. Your doctor should be able to refer you to a qualified surgeon if they aren’t qualified to perform the procedure themselves.

Treatment For Sleep Apnea

Somnoplasty treats upper airway disorders including: habitual snoring, obstructive sleep apnea, chronic nasal obstruction from enlarged turbinates, and other sleep and breathing disorders.

An ear, nose, and throat doctor can perform the newest surgery for snoring in their office using low-powered radiofrequency energy on the base of the tongue. The lesions created by this process are absorbed by the tissue and the remaining tissue is stiffer. This is preformed using local anesthesia and pain medication is only required for two to three days after the surgery. In the past the same types of surgeries would require weeks of narcotics to cope with the after surgery pain.

Somnoplasty has very few side effects and there have been no reports of bleeding, infection or airway compromises. There have been a few complaints of soreness immediately following the surgery. All patients that have undergone this newest surgery for snoring have reported absolute improvement in breathing. Also over 75 per cent of patients reported a decrease in the severity and frequency of breathing problems. Most of the patients recorded decreased daytime sleepiness and a huge 77 per cent decrease in snoring.

Many patients who seek treatment for habitual snoring have most recently experienced the discomfort of the laser-assisted uvulopalatoplasty (LAUP) – a multiphase procedure so invasive and painful that it can discourage patients from returning after their first visit3.

The clinical benefits of Somnoplasty is it is minimally invasive, minimal post-operative discomfort, safe, effective, office-based procedure. Somnoplasty uses controlled, low-power radiofrequency energy to create one or several submucosal volumetric lesions. Over a period of 6 to 8 weeks, the lesions are naturally resorbed, reducing tissue volume and stiffening remaining tissue in the desired area.

Newest Surgery For Snoring Brings Fast Relief

In a recent multicenter study,13 Somnoplasty treatments were shown to deliver a 85.3% success rate for up to two Somnoplasty treatment sessions, reduce mean snoring index 60.6%, reduce mean epworth sleepiness score 37.5%.
