Why Do We Snore?
Snoring occurs when the airflow from the nose and mouth is restricted, causing vibrations that produce sound. Factors contributing to snoring include age, alcohol consumption, weight gain, poor muscle tone, allergies, sinus infections, structural conditions like deviated septum or nasal polyps, certain medications, and sleeping position.

Benefits of Snoring Treatment
Non-Surgical, Non-Invasive
- The procedure does not require surgery, making it a safer option with minimal risk. Patients can avoid the complications often associated with surgical interventions. This also means the recovery time is significantly reduced, allowing patients to quickly return to their daily routines.
Increases Sleep Quality
- Patients experience better and more restful sleep due to the reduction in snoring. Improved sleep quality can enhance overall health, including better concentration, mood, and energy levels throughout the day. As sleep quality improves, patients may also see a reduction in daytime sleepiness and fatigue.
Reduces Snoring and Sleep Apnea
- The treatment effectively decreases the severity of snoring and symptoms of sleep apnea. By addressing the root cause of the obstruction, it reduces the risk of related health issues, such as high blood pressure and heart disease. Patients and their partners can enjoy quieter and more peaceful nights, improving the quality of life for everyone involved.
Cost-Effective
- The procedure offers an affordable solution compared to other surgical options. Patients can avoid the high costs associated with more invasive treatments or long-term use of medications. Additionally, the cost-effectiveness makes the treatment accessible to a broader range of individuals seeking relief from snoring and sleep apnea.
No Downtime
- Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment. There is no need for extended rest or recovery periods, which is beneficial for those with busy schedules. The quick recovery allows patients to enjoy the benefits of the treatment without major interruptions to their daily life.
What is NightLase® Treatment?
NightLase® Treatment is an FDA-approved, non-invasive laser procedure that improves sleep quality by reducing the severity of snoring and sleep apnea. The treatment promotes a better night’s sleep and decreases the amplitude of snoring by tightening the tissues of the airway, allowing for better airflow.
How Does Snoring Treatment Work?
The snoring treatment uses non-ablative Er
laser technology to heat the tissues around the airway. This stimulates collagen production, which tightens the airway and reduces snoring by providing more support for the uvula and soft palate. As a result, patients experience reduced snoring and sleep apnea symptoms, along with improved oxygen intake during sleep.
