ClariFix®: A Lasting Solution for Chronic Runny Nose & Congestion

Do you constantly battle nasal congestion, postnasal drip, or a runny nose, even though you don’t have allergies? If over-the-counter medications, antihistamines, and nasal sprays haven’t provided lasting relief, you may be dealing with vasomotor rhinitis—a condition caused by overactive nasal nerves.

At Atlanta ENT, Sinus & Allergy Associates, P.C., Dr. Ramie A. Tritt, a board-certified otolaryngologist, offers ClariFix®, a minimally invasive, in-office cryotherapy treatment that targets and calms the irritated nerves responsible for your symptoms.

If you’re tired of constantly clearing your throat or carrying tissues everywhere, it’s time to discover a long-term solution with ClariFix®.

What Is ClariFix® & How Does It Work?

ClariFix® is an FDA-approved treatment that uses cryotherapy (cold therapy) to freeze the overactive nerves in your nasal passages. These nerves send excessive signals that trigger:

✔️ Chronic runny nose
✔️ Postnasal drip
✔️ Frequent throat clearing
✔️ Persistent nasal congestion

By gently applying cold temperatures to these dysfunctional nerves, ClariFix® slows down their activity, providing long-term relief from symptoms. Unlike traditional treatments like antihistamines or nasal sprays, ClariFix® directly addresses the root cause of your condition—not just the symptoms.

What to Expect During ClariFix® Treatment

One of the biggest advantages of ClariFix® is that it’s quick, virtually painless, and requires no downtime. Here’s what you can expect:

Step 1: Numbing the Area – Dr. Tritt applies a local anesthetic to ensure your nose is completely numb. Some patients also receive a mild sedative to stay relaxed.

Step 2: Cryotherapy Application – A small device is inserted into your nose to deliver precise cooling to the overactive nerves using nitrogen gas. You may feel slight pressure and a cool sensation in your nose and upper teeth, but no pain.

Step 3: Quick & Easy Recovery – The procedure takes just 30 minutes, and most patients return to normal activities immediately or within a day. Some mild congestion or discomfort is normal but resolves quickly.

When Will You See Results?

Unlike instant relief from a decongestant spray, ClariFix® takes time to work, as your nerves gradually adjust. Most patients notice:

 Some improvement within 2-6 weeks

 Significant relief after 6 weeks

 Continued symptom improvement for up to a year

Since ClariFix® provides long-lasting relief, many patients only need one treatment—though additional sessions are safe if needed.

Are You a Good Candidate for ClariFix®?

If you suffer from constant nasal drainage, congestion, or throat clearing and traditional medications haven’t helped, ClariFix® might be the solution you’ve been looking for. It’s especially beneficial for:

✔️ People with nonallergic (vasomotor) rhinitis
✔️ Those who experience year-round nasal symptoms
✔️ Patients frustrated with ineffective nasal sprays or medications
