Whether or not you\u2019ll require surgery depends entirely on your individual health and personal needs.

Some of the most common procedures we perform in-house or at our outpatient surgery center include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) <\/strong>is used to improve nasal drainage and open up the nasal passageways. To perform this outpatient procedure, your doctor uses an endoscope (a small probe with a camera on the end) to enter your sinuses and remove problematic tissues and diseased sinus mucosa. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Image guided surgery <\/strong>is another endoscopic surgery option for severe forms of chronic sinusitis or nasal blockage that can\u2019t be treated using normal sinus surgery methods. It relies on a three-dimensional mapping system created from CT scans for extreme precision.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Balloon Sinuplasty <\/strong>uses a small balloon catheter inserted into the sinuses then inflated to open up the nasal passageways. Once the sinuses reach the desired width, the balloon is deflated and removed, leaving more space in the passageway.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Caldwell Luc operation <\/strong>improves drainage in the maxillary sinus by creating a window from this cavity to the nose. The surgeon enters the maxillary cavity endoscopically through the upper jaw above the molars.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Septoplasty and septorhinoplasty <\/strong>procedures reshape, reduce or reposition portions of the septum\u2019s bone or cartilage to open up the nasal passageway and improve drainage and breathing. These procedures are used to reduce blockage, fix a deviated septum, repair a broken nose and more.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<var style=\"width:100%; padding-bottom:56.25%; display:block;\" data-presentation=\"25804384-439a-4a0f-4190-442147164c31\"><a href=\"http:\/\/fyi.rendia.com\/Dn-TPj\" style=\"display:none\">View Video<\/a><\/var><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/rendia.com\/whitelabel\/embed_js\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Turbinate surgery <\/strong>reduces airway obstruction and difficulties breathing caused by enlarged or swollen turbinates, which are small bones that clean and humidify air as it passes through your nose. There are several types of turbinate surgery, including the turbinectomy (full or partial tissue removal), the turbinoplasty (tissue repositioning), radiofrequency or laser ablation surgery (tissue reduction) and submucous resection surgery (partial bone or cartilage removal).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p>Call <span class=\"company-name \">Augusta &#8211; Aiken ENT &amp; Allergy<\/span> at <a href=\"tel:+17068685676\" class=\"phone \"> <span class=\"phNum\">(706) 868-5676<\/span><\/a> or <a href=\"tel:+18036490003\" class=\"phone \"> <span class=\"phNum\">(803) 649-0003<\/span><\/a> for more information or to schedule an appointment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>View Video View Video We offer premier nasal and sinus surgical treatment options for conditions that either require surgery or aren\u2019t responding to other medical or procedural treatment plans.
