Inferior turbinate reduction is a procedure that reduces the size of enlarged or swollen inferior turbinates to improve nasal breathing.
Anyone with chronic nasal congestion from significant turbinate hypertrophy who is not responding to nasal steroids or nasal antihistamines is a good candidate.
There are numerous techniques. We prefer submucosal resection.
This technique removes soft tissue inside the turbinate to reduce the volume of the turbinate.
It can be done under local anesthesia, intravenous sedation, or general anesthesia.
Patients undergoing inferior turbinate reduction alone can resume work within a few days.
