Volume reduction of the soft palate: A treatment to reduce or eliminate velar snoring on an out-patient basis. It is simple, and no specific follow-up treatment is required.
In recent years Radiofrequency Volume Reduction (RaVoR™) has become the standard surgical procedure to treat habitual snoring and mild sleep apnea. Multiple clinical studies have confirmed the efficacy and the clinical benefits of the treatment (abstracts see link list).
This minimally invasive treatment method preserves the structures and function of the soft palate. RaVoR™ is performed under local anesthesia; It can easily be combined with other treatments, e.g. RF-UPPP or CPAP treatment.
