Tired of the Constant Runny Nose and Congestion?
If sprays and antihistamines aren't cutting it, you may have chronic rhinitis. RhinAer® is a non-invasive, in-office treatment that targets the root cause, so you can breathe freely again, without daily medication.
The symptoms that just won't quit
Chronic rhinitis means months of nasal symptoms that sprays and pills only partly control. If two or more of these describe your day, an evaluation is worth it.

What Is RhinAer®?
RhinAer is a non-invasive, in-office treatment that targets the root cause of chronic rhinitis, not just the symptoms. Using gentle, temperature-controlled radiofrequency energy, it calms the overactive posterior nasal nerves that drive the runny nose, congestion, and drip.
The entire treatment is performed through the nostrils under local anesthesia, no incisions, no general anesthesia. Most patients return to their normal activities the same day.
