ClariFix®

What is CHRONIC RHINITIS?

If you frequently have a runny, stuffy nose, you may have Chronic Rhinitis (CR).

• Chronic Rhinitis is caused by inflammation of nasal linings
• More than 24 million people in the U.S. suffer from CR
• Treatments, such as sprays, drops, and pills may not give you the relief you desire

The ClariFix® procedure in your doctor’s office can mean long-term relief for your runny and stuffy nose.

How it works

• Clarifix works by selectively freezing the ‘runny nose nerve.’ The procedure involves no cutting or suturing. It works with a ‘cryoprobe’ which is applied to the mucosa overlying the nerve. The procedure is performed in the office, under local or mild sedation, takes minutes to perform, and is associated with immediate recovery (and no downtime).

• In a clinical study, 4 out of 5 people reported long-lasting improvement with the ClariFix device1, including a reduction in a runny nose and congestion.

Do you suffer from frequent runny nose, congestion and post-nasal drip even when you aren’t sick? You may have a condition called chronic rhinitis.

North Atlanta Ear Nose and Throat offers a unique treatment solution for adults with these frustrating chronic rhinitis symptoms. Using the patented ClariFix^® cryotherapy device, we are able to go to the source of the problem, the inflamed nasal lining and out of balance nerves in the nose.

The ClariFix^® solution is:

• FDA cleared
• Minimally invasive
• Performed in our office

A clinical study demonstrated a significant decrease in runny nose & congestion symptoms with 4 out of 5 patients reporting long-lasting relief after ClariFix^® cryotherapy.^1,2

The most common side effects associated with ClariFix cryotherapy are temporary increased congestion and transient pain or discomfort.
