Snoring treatment consultations in Sydney and Melbourne
Géniale provides consultation and suitability assessment for patients considering non-surgical snoring treatment options. The appointment is designed to understand your concerns, review your medical history and discuss whether a laser-based pathway may be appropriate.
A consultation does not guarantee that treatment will be recommended. Some patients need further assessment or a different pathway before any treatment can be considered.
NightLase®
What is NightLase®?
NightLase® is a laser treatment pathway that may be discussed for suitable patients who are concerned about snoring. It is not suitable for every patient, and outcomes vary between individuals.
Your practitioner will consider your anatomy, symptoms, medical history and whether other investigations or referrals are appropriate before discussing treatment options.
Suitability first
Is laser treatment suitable for every snoring patient?
No. Snoring can have different causes, and some symptoms may indicate a need for further medical review.
Depending on your history, you may be advised to consider GP review, sleep study, sleep apnoea assessment, oral appliance discussion, CPAP discussion, ENT review or another pathway.
