How NightLase works
During sleep, tissues in the nose and throat can vibrate when airway muscles relax. NightLase uses laser energy to gently heat tissue at the back of the throat.
- Stimulates collagen in the treated tissue
- Works to expand the airway
- Aims to reduce vibration that contributes to snoring
- Designed to support better sleep quality over time
What to expect during treatment
Treatment begins with a consultation to review your concerns and discuss whether NightLase is suitable for you.
Consultation
Your sleep concerns, snoring symptoms and treatment expectations are reviewed before creating a personalised plan.
Laser treatment
A specialised handpiece delivers laser energy to the soft palate and throat. A device may be used to help hold the jaw forward.
After treatment
You are generally free to return to your usual daily activities immediately after the session.
How many treatments are usually needed?
The page states that three treatments are usually recommended to achieve the best possible results.
- Usually 3 treatments
- Typically spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart
- Annual maintenance may be recommended afterward
Results timeline
Some patients notice a reduction in snoring and better sleep quality after the first treatment, though full results take longer because collagen production develops gradually.
The page says results usually last around 12 to 18 months, after which annual maintenance may be required.
