Sinus Surgery Cost
The cost of sinus surgery depends on the type of treatment you need. There are different types of sinus surgery performed by Dr. Tadros:
Functional endoscopic surgery
A good candidate for functional endoscopic surgery is someone who has acute or chronic sinusitis. This procedure can be performed under general or local anesthesia, affecting the cost. It is a minimally invasive procedure in which the sinus air cells are opened to increase sinus airflow.
Turbinate reduction surgery
Turbinates are small bony structures that cleanse and humidify the air that passes through your nose. They can become inflamed in which case you may need turbinate reduction surgery. A small needle-like instrument is inserted into your turbinates which energy is passed through to shrink the turbinates. The procedure is done under local anesthesia and takes about 10 minutes.
Balloon sinuplasty
Balloon sinuplasty is used to treat severe sinus inflammation. This procedure works by dilating the sinuses to increase airflow. The doctor inserts a small balloon endoscope into the sinus and slightly inflated to expand the sinus walls.
