Coblation Turbinate Reduction: A Patient Perspective

http://www.TurbinateReduction.com - Coblation turbinate reduction as experienced from one patient's perspective. This particular patient has tried numerous prescriptions, allergy shots, and even somnoplasty turbinate reduction without improvement. Coblation turbinate reduction helped where everything else failed. We do NOT advocate complete or even near-complete turbinate removal as it may lead to a devastating condition known as Empty Nose Syndrome.

how much does a surgery like that costs in the usa? any idea?

[fauquierent]

@simpsonsgotobrazil It is covered by insurance...

I had this done with a septoplasty and I was completely out for the procedure. Recovery was painful, but the results are amazing.

[fauquierent]

If you had just the turbinate reduction alone done, most people do not complain of pain. Only sometimes, a few patients would take just tylenol.

painless? right...

@SupportAlexJones so how did it work for you so far? has your condition improved since then??

@simpsonsgotobrazil i did mine in singapore for 800 sgd, that's approx us$550. i was covered by insurance. the surgery vastly improved my rhinoconjunc allergic symptoms. my surgery was more complicated - i had to sit on an operating table. plus, it was painful because i didnt have a lot of anaesthesia (part of insurance policy). i had bleeding, crusting and blood clots in my nose for 3 weeks. get sodium bicarbonate to mix with salt water to rinse the inside of your nose (discomforting).

I had turbinate reduction surgery under general anesthesia 4 months ago. There has been little, if any, improvement in my breathing. Maybe the doctor was too conservative??? I'm disappointed in the results.
