Conditions Treated

• Chronic Sinusitis and Nasal Polyps: Comprehensive management of chronic inflammation of the sinus cavities that impairs breathing, causes chronic facial pain, and reduces the sense of smell and taste.
• Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and Severe Snoring: Surgical treatment for patients suffering from airway blockages during sleep, a critical condition that can lead to severe cardiovascular issues, chronic fatigue, and reduced quality of life if left untreated.
• Nasal Airway Obstruction & Deviated Septum: Correction of structural abnormalities within the nasal cavity, including septal deviations and turbinate hypertrophy, which cause chronic congestion and breathing difficulties.
• Facial and Nasal Aesthetic Deformities: Treatment of congenital or trauma-induced nasal deformities, addressing both the cosmetic appearance of the nose and its functional breathing capabilities.
• Pediatric Ear, Nose, and Throat Disorders: Expert care for childhood ORL issues, including recurrent tonsillitis, enlarged adenoids, chronic ear infections (otitis media), and hearing difficulties related to fluid buildup in the middle ear.
• Head and Neck Pathologies: Diagnosis and management of various tumors, cysts, and masses within the head, neck, and sinus regions, including ectopic developments in the maxillary sinus.

Procedures Performed

• Endoscopic Nose Surgery (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery - FESS): A highly advanced, minimally invasive surgical procedure utilized to clear blocked sinuses. Dr. Ahmadov uses small endoscopic cameras to visualize and meticulously remove polyps, diseased tissue, and anatomical blockages without external incisions, restoring normal sinus drainage and function.
• Nose and Facial Aesthetic-Reconstructive Surgery (Rhinoplasty & Septorhinoplasty): Dr. Ahmadov combines his deep understanding of facial anatomy with aesthetic precision to perform reconstructive and cosmetic nose surgeries. Whether correcting trauma, addressing congenital defects, or improving aesthetic harmony, he ensures the patient achieves a natural look without compromising their nasal airway function.
• Sleep Apnea and Snoring Surgery: Utilizing techniques such as Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) and advanced tissue remodeling, Dr. Ahmadov surgically widens the patient's airway. By removing or shrinking excess tissue in the throat, soft palate, and uvula, he successfully reduces snoring intensity and treats the root cause of obstructive sleep apnea.
• Pediatric Ear, Nose, and Throat Surgery: Specialized, gentle surgical interventions for children. This includes tonsillectomies (removal of the tonsils), adenoidectomies (removal of enlarged adenoids blocking the nasal airway), and myringotomy with tube insertion to treat chronic ear infections and prevent childhood hearing loss.
