Snoring Surgery at Asian ENT Care Centre, Hyderabad

Snoring Surgery is a procedure designed to treat the underlying causes of snoring by addressing obstructions in the airway. At Asian ENT Care Centre in Hyderabad, our experienced ENT surgeons specialize in diagnosing and performing snoring surgeries to improve breathing and restore restful sleep.

What Causes Snoring?

  • Obstructed Airway: Snoring occurs when air cannot flow freely through the nose or throat during sleep.
  • Enlarged Tonsils or Adenoids: Swollen tonsils or adenoids can block airflow, leading to snoring.
  • Deviated Septum: A crooked nasal septum can restrict airflow through the nose, causing snoring.
  • Excess Throat Tissue: Excess soft tissue in the throat can vibrate and cause snoring sounds.
  • Obesity: Increased fatty tissue around the neck and throat can narrow the airway and increase the likelihood of snoring.
  • Sleep Apnea: Snoring is often linked to obstructive sleep apnea, where breathing is interrupted during sleep due to blocked airways.

Why is Snoring Surgery Done?

  • Persistent Snoring: When lifestyle changes (e.g., weight loss, sleep position adjustment) fail to alleviate snoring.
  • Sleep Apnea: Snoring surgery may be necessary for patients with obstructive sleep apnea to improve breathing and reduce snoring.
  • Quality of Life: Chronic snoring can disrupt sleep for both the individual and their partner, leading to daytime fatigue, irritability, and reduced quality of life.
  • Improve Breathing: Snoring surgery helps eliminate airway blockages, improving airflow during sleep and reducing snoring.

Types of Snoring Surgery

  • Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP): A surgery that removes excess tissue from the throat, including the uvula, soft palate, and possibly part of the tonsils, to widen the airway and reduce snoring.
  • Laser-Assisted Uvulopalatoplasty (LAUP): A minimally invasive procedure using a laser to shorten and tighten the soft palate, helping to reduce snoring.
  • Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA): A procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to shrink excess tissue in the soft palate and throat, improving airflow and reducing snoring.
  • Septoplasty: A surgery to correct a deviated septum, which can obstruct nasal airflow and contribute to snoring.
  • Tonsillectomy or Adenoidectomy: Removal of enlarged tonsils or adenoids, which can block the airway and cause snoring, particularly in children.

Benefits of Snoring Surgery

  • Reduced Snoring: Surgery can significantly reduce or eliminate snoring by addressing the root cause of airway obstruction.
  • Improved Sleep Quality: By improving airflow, patients experience better, more restful sleep.
  • Enhanced Breathing: Snoring surgery helps ensure unobstructed airflow during sleep, reducing the risk of sleep apnea.
  • Better Partner Sleep: Reduced snoring often leads to improved sleep quality for bed partners, helping to restore harmony in the household.
