Balloon sinuplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat chronic sinusitis. During the procedure, a small balloon is inserted into the nasal passages and gently inflated to open blocked sinuses. This helps to restore normal drainage and relieve symptoms like congestion and facial pain. The procedure is typically performed in an outpatient setting and does not require general anesthesia. Balloon sinuplasty is considered safe and effective, with a quick recovery time compared to traditional sinus surgery. Patients often experience significant improvement in their quality of life after the treatment.
