Safe and effective laser treatment for snoring and sleep apnea
Do you suffer from sleep apnea? Does your partner have trouble sleeping because of your snoring? If so, we have the solution. We offer NightLase® anti-snoring treatment to help you and your loved ones sleep better at night. This is not a nasal strip or a chin strap, but a quick laser procedure. NightLase® works by tightening the tissues of the oral mucosa. This treatment is safe, effective and requires little downtime.
What can I expect?
NightLase® is a treatment that involves the use of Fotona's Er:YAG laser. This laser system uses pulses of energy to heat the mucous membranes in your mouth. The process is gentle but effective in stimulating your body's natural collagen production response. The tissues in the targeted area are contracted, creating a tightening effect that reduces snoring without the use of external remedies.
How does it work?
The anatomy of your mouth can play a major role in the frequency of your snoring. A low, thick and soft palate can narrow your airways. This phenomenon is common in aging people.
Similarly, if your uvula is elongated, it can obstruct air circulation and increase vibrations. These problems can be corrected by NightLase®'s ability to tighten your oral tissues.
What result can I expect?
A complete NightLase® treatment consists of three separate treatment sessions over a period of six weeks. The final result of this treatment has been shown to last for up to a year. As this treatment is non-invasive, it can be carried out several times without risk of complications.
What can I expect during the treatment?
During your NightLase® treatment, laser light will be used to heat the tissue in your mucous membranes. This will cause the tissue to tighten. The tightening effect will in turn reduce the force of the sound emitted during sleep.
The procedure is carried out in two simple stages:
Step 1: Pre-conditioning – The laser light pre-heats the tissue.
Step 2: Tissue reinforcement – The laser light strengthens the tissue.
