Surgical treatments for snoring involve procedures aimed at reducing obstructions in the airway that cause snoring. In some cases, these obstructions may even lead to obstructive sleep apnea.
Our team of North American and European Board Certified expert otolaryngologists specialize in performing a comprehensive variety of surgical procedures for the treatment of snoring.
How are the procedures performed?
The doctor may conduct a sleep study prior to the surgery to accurately evaluate the patient’s sleep patterns. Most surgical treatments for snoring involve minimally invasive procedures wherein the surgeon shrinks or removes excess tissue to treat the patient’s snoring complications.
The surgical treatments may include:
- Uvulectomy
- Radiofrequency treatments
- Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty
- Other palatal & throat surgeries
- Septoplasty & turbinate reduction surgery using the most advanced endoscopic techniques
