Surgeries, lasting 30–90 minutes, are tailored to clear blockages and restore function, ensuring a precise, comfortable experience.

What to Expect During Recovery

Post-surgery, mild swelling or congestion may occur, resolving within 1–7 days. Follow aftercare, such as saline rinses or avoiding strenuous activity.
