Do you constantly struggle with a runny or congested nose that never seems to improve? You may be one of the many Western New Yorkers dealing with chronic rhinitis—a condition that Dr. Paul Young frequently treats at our Buffalo, NY, ENT clinic. It’s one of the most common complaints ENT doctors receive, with nearly 100 patients per month visiting clinics nationwide for this condition¹.
Rhinitis is the inflammation of the nasal mucosa, leading to uncomfortable symptoms like:
There are two main types: allergic rhinitis (commonly known as hay fever) and non-allergic rhinitis. Many patients experience a mix of both types, resulting in chronic, hard-to-treat symptoms.
Acute rhinitis often results from colds or allergies. But if your symptoms persist for months or years, even after using medications and sprays, you may be suffering from chronic rhinitis. This long-term form often arises when the nasal nerves become overactive—sending too many signals to produce mucus and inflammation. Enlarged turbinates and post-nasal drip add to the discomfort.
At Dr. Paul Young’s ENT clinic, we understand the daily toll chronic rhinitis takes—impacting sleep, work performance, and overall happiness. That’s why we’re proud to offer RhinAer®, a breakthrough treatment that targets the root cause of chronic rhinitis—without surgery.
RhinAer® is a non-invasive, office-based procedure that provides long-term relief for patients suffering from chronic rhinitis. It uses temperature-controlled radiofrequency (RF) energy to precisely treat the overactive nerves and inflamed tissues responsible for:
Chronic runny nose
Nasal congestion
Sneezing and irritation
RhinAer® is performed under local anesthesia, requires no incisions or downtime, and most patients *return to normal activities the same day.
Most patients begin to see noticeable improvement within 2–6 weeks. According to clinical studies, patients reported:
An average 58% reduction in rhinitis symptoms (runny nose, congestion, itching, and sneezing) at one year post-treatment².
