NightLase® is a non-invasive laser treatment designed to gently target oral tissues associated with snoring. No surgery, no devices—just a comfortable in-clinic procedure guided by Dr Mike.
NightLase® may be suitable for individuals experiencing snoring related to soft palate laxity. A thorough clinical assessment helps determine if this gentle laser approach aligns with your individual health needs.
With minimal downtime and no surgical recovery, NightLase® offers a potential option for managing snoring. Ongoing support from trained clinicians ensures safe treatment planning and follow-up when required.
Laser snoring treatment is a non-invasive procedure that uses laser energy to tighten the tissues in the soft palate. This reduces the vibrations in the throat that cause snoring. The treatment is performed by Dr. Mike Shenouda at Géniale in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. According to the Australian Sleep Health Foundation, snoring affects approximately 5 million Australians (about 40% of adults), making effective treatment options increasingly important.
The NightLase® laser technology delivers precise Er:YAG laser energy to the soft palate tissues in a controlled, non-invasive manner. Operating at a wavelength of 2940nm, the laser energy is optimally absorbed by water molecules in the tissue, creating a controlled thermal effect that stimulates collagen remodeling. The procedure uses a proprietary “SMOOTH mode” pulse sequence that gradually heats tissue to temperatures between 55-65°C, the optimal range for collagen contraction without damaging surrounding structures. This dual-phase mechanism provides both immediate tissue contraction and long-term collagen restructuring over the following 4-6 weeks. Clinical studies show that up to 85% of patients experience significant reduction in snoring intensity following a complete treatment protocol.
Most patients require a series of three treatments spaced approximately one month apart for optimal results. However, many notice improvement after just one session. Dr. Mike Shenouda will create a personalized treatment plan during your consultation. Research indicates that non-invasive laser treatments show a 78% patient satisfaction rate compared to 62% for more invasive surgical options.
There is no downtime after Snoring Laser Treatment. You can return to your normal activities immediately following the procedure, including eating, drinking, and speaking normally. This is one reason why laser treatment has become increasingly popular among the 40% of Australian adults who snore regularly, especially for the 60% of men over 40 affected by snoring.
Results from laser snoring treatment typically last 12-18 months. Many patients choose to have an annual maintenance treatment to sustain the benefits. Factors such as weight, alcohol consumption, and sleeping position can affect the longevity of results. With snoring being a primary indicator of potential sleep apnea in 30% of cases, maintaining treatment results is important for overall sleep health.
No anaesthesia is require for this treatment, as it is non-invasive and does not require surgery.
Yes. Géniale provides NightLase® consultations in Sydney and Melbourne. Suitability is determined during consultation based on symptoms, airway assessment, and individual clinical factors.
Some individuals report an improvement in snoring following NightLase® treatment. However, outcomes depend on a range of factors including anatomy, lifestyle, and the underlying cause of snoring or sleep disturbances. Scientific studies are ongoing, and while early research suggests potential benefit in select patients, further high-quality studies are needed.
NightLase® is not a cure for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Individuals with suspected sleep apnoea should undergo a formal assessment and diagnosis by a medical professional, which may include a sleep study.
NightLase® may be considered for adults who:
Patients considering NightLase® in Sydney or snoring laser treatment Sydney consultations are individually assessed to determine whether the treatment may be appropriate for their symptoms and treatment goals.
