Chronic rhinitis is a common, but underdiagnosed condition. Patients with chronic rhinitis commonly experience runny nose, sneezing, nasal congestion, or nasal discharge draining into the back of your throat (post nasal drip). This may cause coughing, sneezing or the feeling of frequently needing to “clear your throat.”
Rhinaer is a safe, minimally invasive procedure performed in the office without general anesthesia to treat chronic rhinitis. If you think you have chronic rhinitis, please call our office to make an appointment to see one of our providers who can accurately diagnose and treat your nasal symptoms!
Why Choose RhinAer® for Chronic Rhinitis?
If you’re one of the many Glendale area patients struggling with persistent nasal symptoms, like a constant runny nose, repeated throat clearing, sneezing fits, or nasal congestion, then the RhinAer® procedure offers a lasting solution without the need for ongoing medications. At Southern California ENT and Allergy Specialists in Glendale, our board-certified physicians provide this advanced, minimally invasive treatment designed to target the overactive nasal nerves responsible for chronic rhinitis.
Unlike nasal sprays or allergy medications that only provide temporary relief, RhinAer® addresses the root cause of your symptoms. The procedure calms the overactive nerve pathways that lead to excess mucus, congestion, and irritation, helping you breathe more comfortably and reclaim your daily routine.
What to Expect During the Procedure
During your visit to Southern California ENT and Allergy Specialists in Glendale:
- Your doctor will review your medical history, allergy background, and nasal symptoms in detail.
- A nasal endoscopy (a small camera used to look inside the nose) is performed to pinpoint the nerves contributing to your symptoms.
- Using the RhinAer® device, gentle energy is applied to those nerves to reduce their overactivity. The entire process is completed in the comfort of our Glendale office, typically in under 30 minutes.
- The procedure requires only local anesthesia, no sedation or hospital stay and most patients return to normal activities within a day.
Benefits of the RhinAer® Treatment
Patients at Southern California ENT and Allergy Specialists in Glendale experience:
- Significant reduction in nasal drainage and post-nasal drip
- Improved breathing through the nose
- Less need for medications such as antihistamines or nasal sprays
- Better sleep, reduced throat clearing, and improved overall comfort
- Long-term relief without major surgery or downtime
Because RhinAer® targets the nerve signals that cause symptoms, it delivers lasting improvement even for patients who’ve struggled with chronic rhinitis for years.
Is RhinAer® Right for You?
You may be a candidate for RhinAer® if you:
- Have chronic nasal congestion, runny nose, or post-nasal drip lasting three months or longer
