The laser method of destruction of the hypertrophied ends of the nasal concha is now considered to be the most effective. Such common methods of treatment of polypous hyperplasia and hypertrophic nasal congestion, such as diathermocoagulant removal, cryodestruction or ultrasonic disintegration may be accompanied by bleeding, expressed by edematous reactive processes with microcirculatory disorders.
Laser technology is used to treat synechia (adhesions) and atresia of the nose, as well as congenital atresia of the khohan.
The operation is performed under local anesthesia. The duration of the operation is 30-60 minutes.

Respiration through the nose is restored immediately after the removal of cotton-tampons
Full rehabilitation after konchoplasty, comes in 1-3 months. The ability to work and the opportunity to return to the usual way of life comes in 1-2 weeks.
