CELON is a minimally invasive technique that utilizes radiofrequency energy to reduce the size of enlarged nasal turbinates. Turbinates are vital structures in your nose that help manage airflow. When they become swollen, often due to chronic allergies or other irritants, they can obstruct the nasal passage, leading to congestion and breathing problems. By gently shrinking the size of these turbinates, CELON restores proper airflow and relieves these disruptive symptoms.
The CELON procedure is performed at our office and involves the use of local anesthesia for your comfort.
A slender wand is inserted into the nose, and radiofrequency energy is precisely applied to the swollen turbinate tissue. This energy causes the tissue to gently contract, significantly reducing its size. The entire process is very fast, usually requiring less than 10 minutes, and patients report only minimal discomfort.
CELON is primarily used to address nasal obstruction caused by enlarged turbinates. This enlargement is often a result of conditions such as:
Choosing CELON offers several significant advantages for patients struggling with nasal obstruction:
If you experience ongoing nasal congestion and difficulty breathing due to turbinate enlargement, you may be an excellent candidate for CELON. The essential step is scheduling a consultation with one of our ENT specialists to determine if this procedure is the most effective way to address your specific condition.
Recovery from the CELON procedure is typically quick. It's common to experience some minor nasal swelling or congestion for just a few days. Most patients are able to return to their regular activities shortly after the appointment. We will provide tailored post-procedure instructions to ensure your recovery is comfortable and smooth.
You may notice some initial improvement in your breathing soon after the CELON procedure. However, the full benefits, including a marked reduction in congestion and significantly improved airflow, are usually apparent within a few weeks. The positive effects of CELON can endure for several years, providing long-term relief from nasal obstruction.
Patients typically experience minimal discomfort both during the short procedure and afterward.
The treatment is very fast, usually taking less than 10 minutes.
Most patients are able to return to their normal activities shortly after the procedure is finished.
As with any medical procedure, there are minor potential risks, such as bleeding or infection. Your doctor will discuss these risks in detail with you.
Many patients enjoy better breathing for several years.
Many insurance plans cover CELON, but we always recommend checking directly with your provider to confirm your benefits.
