Testimonial From Yong Chee Seng treated for snoring, obstructive sleep apnoea and nasal blockage
The original version UP3 was quite radical in the amount of tissue removed with resultant increased risk of postoperative bleeding and pain + possible nasal reflux of liquids during swallowing. The modified version using Coblation lowers these risks.
On its own this operation for snoring is usually inadequate and I consider it as a secondary operation for snoring, with most cases needing surgery adequately treated by Septoplasty &/or Adenotonsillectomy.
