How effective was laser treatment across rhinitis types?

The laser treatment was similarly effective against both allergic and nonallergic rhinitis, with benefits lasting as long as a year and a half post-surgery. Yosef Krespi, MD, of the New York Head & Neck Institute, said, “Laser ablation of the posterior nasal nerve is a well-tolerated, safe office or ambulatory procedure. The results are similar to other treatment modalities, such as surgery and cryotherapy. Ongoing analysis of long-term outcomes in a much larger series in a multicenter environment are the next steps.”
