A minimally invasive treatment, FinESS® Sinus Treatment, has been in the offering by Dr. James Atkins, founder of the Texas Sinus Center.

This offering is in relation to breaking the cycle of chronic sinusitis (CRS) at Foundation Surgical Hospital of San Antonio.

FinESS is an effective form of treatment that results in less bleeding, pain, and recovery time for the affected patients.

From News-Medical.Net:

“San Antonio is a tough environment for people who suffer from allergies and sinusitis. We are thrilled to offer FinESS as a new treatment option for our sinusitis patients whose symptoms persist or return despite antibiotics or nasal steroids, or who are looking for an effective alternate to more invasive surgery,” said Dr. Atkins. “When patients are suffering from facial pain and/or pressure, recurrent sinus infections and sinus headaches, they may be a fit for this new procedure, which can be done on an outpatient basis. I’ve had patients tell me a week after surgery that they haven’t felt this good in years.”

It is important to note here that FinESS, unlike the traditional sinus surgeries, does not need removal of delicate bone and sinus tissue.
