Are you living with symptoms associated with chronic rhinitis, such as constant runny nose, nasal congestion, stuffy nose, post-nasal drip, sneezing, and itching that last long beyond allergy season? These symptoms can be frustrating and significantly impact your quality of life.

RhinAer is a non-invasive treatment option for mild to severe chronic rhinitis. It is ideal for relieving symptoms of chronic rhinitis, such as nasal congestion, post-nasal drip, and chronic cough. It can offer significant, long-lasting relief from symptoms, helping you get back to living life more comfortably.

What are the Benefits of RhinAer?

The benefits of RhinAer include:

  • Non-invasive treatment
  • Can provide significant improvement in symptoms
  • Quick recovery
  • Lasting relief

RhinAer is clinically proven to demonstrate meaningful benefits to patients. In studies, 96% of patients reported an improvement in their rhinitis symptoms after six months.

How Does RhinAer Work?

RhinAer is a non-invasive treatment with minimal downtime. It employs low-power radiofrequency energy to target and calm overactive nerves, such as the posterior nasal nerve (PNN), reducing the production and flow of mucus. It may also shrink inflamed tissues in the nose to help relieve congestion.

This treatment is performed in-office and does not require general anesthesia. To begin, a small amount of topical numbing anesthetic is applied to the nasal passages to help ensure minimal discomfort. A thin wand is then gently inserted into the nose to deliver controlled, low-temperature radiofrequency energy to the targeted regions. This wand treats both the turbinates and the posterior nasal nerve. Treatment is fairly quick, lasting about 15-20 minutes.

Aftercare

Following your RhinAer treatment, you will be monitored for a short period of time to ensure that you are feeling comfortable before returning to your regular activities. Temporary effects may be experienced following treatment, including mild congestion, similar to a cold, for a few days. We will provide you with saline rinses and medication if required to assist with the healing process. We will also schedule a follow-up appointment to check in on your healing and symptom relief progress. Most patients can experience noticeable improvements within 2-6 weeks.

Who is a Candidate for RhinAer?

Individuals with consistent, moderate-to-severe chronic runny nose, post-nasal drip, congestion, or chronic clearing of the throat who have only experienced temporary relief from medications, nasal sprays, or past sinus surgery may benefit from RhinAer.

FAQs About RhinAer

Is RhinAer FDA Cleared?

Yes, RhinAer is FDA-cleared to treat chronic rhinitis in 2019.

Are There Age Restrictions for RhinAer?

RhinAer is typically recommended for adults, but eligibility may vary. A doctor will assess whether the treatment is appropriate based on the patient's condition and medical history.

What's the Difference Between RhinAer and VivAer?

RhinAer and VivAer are both minimally invasive treatments, but they target different nasal conditions. RhinAer treats chronic rhinitis by targeting overactive nasal nerves, reducing excessive mucus production. VivAer, on the other hand, is designed to improve nasal airway obstruction or collapse by reshaping the nasal valve to enhance airflow.

Are There Side Effects to RhinAer?

Side effects are usually mild and temporary, including nasal tenderness, mild congestion, bleeding or crusting, or mild headache. Serious complications are rare, and most patients recover quickly without long-term issues.

Is There A Recovery Period for RhinAer Treatment?

Recovery is minimal, with most patients resuming normal activities the same day. Mild congestion or discomfort may occur for a few days, but no significant downtime is required.
