Airway laser therapy

Fotona laser therapy is used as a direct, tissue-level intervention for airway soft tissue conditions — complementing the systemic and appliance-based approaches to airway management. Using the Er:YAG wavelength, the laser remodels and tightens the soft palate, oropharyngeal tissue, and tonsillar pillars, reducing tissue redundancy and collapsibility that contributes to airway obstruction.

This treatment is used in a broader clinical context than snoring-specific NightLase® — including adjunctive treatment for mild OSA, post-surgical tissue rehabilitation, or as part of a multi-modality airway treatment plan. Protocols are individualized to the patient's anatomy, symptoms, and diagnostic findings.

As with all laser airway treatments, patients with suspected or confirmed OSA are evaluated with appropriate sleep diagnostic testing before treatment is initiated, and medical co-management is maintained where indicated.
