Experience Relief for Nasal Obstruction

It's never normal to spend so much time suffering from facial pain or pressure, experiencing nasal congestion, or visiting urgent care for another round of antibiotics. As the area's premier ENT clinic, we offer minimally invasive treatments proven to improve sinus-related issues. Dr. Acevedo and his team will provide personalized care to ensure outstanding relief so you can breathe easy again.

In-Office Technology

No more waiting, no more extra appointments—our in-office CT scanner brings fast, accurate imaging right to your doctor’s visit. A CT scanner (short for "computed tomography") is an advanced X-ray machine that takes detailed, 3D images of your sinuses, ears, or other areas of concern. If you're struggling with sinus issues, chronic congestion, or ear problems, we can get a clear picture of what's going on immediately—without sending you to another facility. That means faster answers, quicker treatment plans, and no hassle with referrals or delays. With immediate access to high-resolution imaging, your provider can diagnose problems on the spot and guide you to the best solution, whether it’s medication, minimally invasive treatment, or surgery. Convenience, clarity, and faster relief—right here in our office.

In-Office Balloon Sinuplasty

Balloon sinuplasty, or Balloon sinus dilation (BSD), is a minimally invasive in-office procedure performed by Dr. Acevedo. It was approved by the FDA in 2005 and has since become the foundational sinusitis treatment. Sinusitis causes inflammation of the nasal lining, leading to excessive mucus build-up in the sinuses. Our goal is to provide immediate and long-term relief for sinus infection sufferers. We have completed numerous balloon sinuplasty procedures throughout the years, making us one of the premier ENT specialists in the community.

Balloon Sinuplasty FAQs

During the procedure, a catheter with a small balloon attached at the tip is gently guided via video monitor to the blocked sinus. Once the balloon is in position, it is carefully inflated. As the balloon expands, it restructures the sinus lining without removing any tissue. Finally, the balloon is deflated and removed while the passage remains open, allowing for better mucus drainage and relieving pressure.

Balloon sinus dilation offers numerous benefits compared to surgical treatments, making it a more attractive option for our patients. As a minimally invasive procedure, it doesn't require tissue or bone removal, resulting in faster recovery. Most patients experience virtually no pain and can return to normal activities within a few days. Balloon sinuplasty provides long-term relief from sinusitis symptoms.

VivAer®

Innovative Treatment for NAO

Inflammatory rhinitis, enlarged turbinates, thickened or deviated septum, and nasal valve collapse can all lead to nasal airway obstruction (NAO). West Texas Ear, Nose & Throat provides patients NAO relief with VivAer®. VivAer® is a non-invasive treatment option that can address multiple causes of NAO at once by delivering low-temperature radiofrequency to gently remodel the nasal valve and reduce areas of swelling inside the nose. 96% of patients experienced significant improvement. This safe and nearly painless procedure allows you to return to your normal activities with almost no recovery time.

VivAer® FAQs

We begin by numbing the area. Next, we gently maneuver the device through the nasal passageway to the blockage location. Using the wand, we precisely target the blockage with radiofrequency to restructure your airway to allow for less obstructed breathing. The procedure is completed in our office, and you can return to your normal daily activities once completed.

RhinAer®

Relief for Chronic Rhinitis

Chronic Rhinitis is a common condition that leads to runny nose, congestion, post-nasal drip, throat clearing, and sneezing. The symptoms can be controlled for many with nasal sprays and antihistamines, but some patients require RhinAer® for relief. RhinAer® technology delivers low-temperature radiofrequency energy directly to the nasal tissues to disrupt the posterior nasal nerve fibers that trigger rhinitis. Patients who undergo the procedure report a significant improvement within weeks. As a non-invasive, nearly painless procedure, most patients experience virtually no interruptions in their daily lives.

RhinAer® FAQs

This quick and effective procedure involves applying local anesthesia to the nasal area, inserting the device into the nostril, and applying radiofrequency to the tissue responsible for the symptoms. This safe and near-painless procedure solution is completed in our office.
