How It Happens

Step by Step

A quick walkthrough of what's actually going on, so the treatment makes sense too.

  1. 1
    Numbing. Local anesthetic numbs the treatment area inside the nose.
  2. 2
    Guided placement. The RhinAer device is guided through the nostril to the posterior nasal nerve, with no incisions required.
  3. 3
    Radiofrequency energy applied. Controlled, temperature-monitored radiofrequency energy is delivered to calm the nerve activity driving your symptoms.
  4. 4
    Both sides treated. The same process is repeated on the other side of the nose.
  5. 5
    Recovery begins. Most patients head home the same day, with nerve activity settling over the following days and weeks.

Signs to Watch For

Common Symptoms

What It Is

RhinAer is an FDA-cleared, temperature-controlled radiofrequency device used to treat chronic rhinitis symptoms at their source, the posterior nasal nerve, rather than just managing symptoms with daily medication.

Recovery

Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two. Some temporary nasal dryness, congestion, or mild discomfort is common as the area heals.

Is It Right for You

RhinAer is generally considered for chronic rhinitis symptoms that haven't improved with sprays or oral medication alone. We'll walk through whether it fits your specific symptoms during a consultation.
