Aerin has developed a unique treatment platform for the physician's office, utilizing non-ablative radiofrequency energy to selectively target and remodel tissues contributing to nasal congestion. The company's non-invasive treatments are intended to address nasal breathing disorders caused by anatomic obstruction and mucosal dysfunction. Clinical studies and early clinical use in over 100 patients in both the US and Europe have demonstrated that Aerin's treatments are able to quickly alleviate symptoms with minimal patient discomfort and durable results. 'Our non-invasive treatments are well suited to bridge the enormous gap between medical management and surgical interventions for this very large group of patients,' said Dinger.
