Minimally invasive sinusitis surgery is the most effective type of treatment for chronic sinusitis. This is because rather than treating the diseased or obstructive tissue for inflammation—it is just removed.
However, since the sinusitis is chronic, inflammation tends to remain ongoing thus creating scar tissue. This scar tissue can easily block sinuses again, prompting yet another surgery to fix the same chronic issue. PROPEL seeks to offer longer-term relief for patients by treating and decreasing recurring inflammation proactively.
After all, the reason patients seek surgery is for long-term relief. Surgery is neither convenient nor comfortable and often is a source of anxiety and stress for many.
