Rhinitis, Turbinate Hypertrophy
Inferior turbinate reduction is a procedure performed when enlarged turbinate blocks the nasal airway.
When medications fail to reduce turbinate swelling—caused by chronic rhinitis, allergic reactions, or other conditions—surgical reduction may help relieve symptoms by improving airflow.

1. Outfracture
This method widens the nasal airway by repositioning the enlarged inferior turbinate outward toward the lateral nasal wall.
2. Radiofrequency Volume Reduction
Using a specially designed probe, this technique shrinks the turbinate tissue without cutting. It is less invasive than laser treatment, causes minimal pain or bleeding, and allows for a quick recovery—making it a comfortable option even for those concerned about undergoing surgery.
3. Submucosal Resection
This procedure removes part of the turbinate tissue and bone directly and is typically performed when less invasive methods are not sufficient.
