Turbinate Reduction Surgery in Dallas Fort Worth

Turbinate reduction surgery is a procedure that shrinks the turbinates in order to alleviate chronic nasal obstruction and nasal congestion.

During the procedure with one of the experts at DFW Sinus Select, an endoscope is inserted into the nostrils to provide access to the turbinates, which results in no visible incisions on the external part of the nose. An incision is created in the turbinate to remove excess bone or mucous membrane. This procedure can also be performed using laser technology.
