An Option Worth Exploring This Hay Fever Season

Blog

If you are someone who turns into a sneezy, watery-eyed mess the moment pollen floats into the air, you have probably tried everything – antihistamines, nasal sprays, herbal teas and maybe questioning your life choices every spring.

Don’t give up, there is another option getting a LOT of buzz: Our Hay Fever Treatment!

Understanding Hay Fever

Hay fever (also known as allergic rhinitis) arises when the immune system overreacts to airborne allergens, such as pollen (grass, tree, weed), dust mites, mould spores or per dander. Common symptoms include:

  • Sneezing
  • Runny or stuffy nose (nasal congestion)
  • Itchy or watery eyes
  • Scratchy throat
  • Post-nasal drip, sinus pressure
  • Fatigue or general malaise during allergy seasons

In Australia, this problem affects many, and for some, conventional therapies are inadequate. The standard medical approach includes:

  • Avoidance and environmental controls (keeping windows closed, reducing indoor allergens, using air filters, showering after being outdoors, etc.)
  • Oral antihistamines, intranasal sprays, decongestants or saline rinses.
  • Allergen immunotherapy (desensitisation) via a series of injections or drops/tablets.

What is Hay Fever Treatment? How does it work?

Treatment itself isn’t a registered medical product but commonly used in cosmetic clinics for “allergy relief”. It is described as a treatment that delivers a small amount of a neurotoxin into the lining of the nose.

With no use of needles or discomfort, it is administered via a spray into each nostril. The goal? To help calm down hay fever symptoms before they take over your life each spring.

Here is how it works:

  • The neurotoxin is used to temporarily quiet the nerve signals in the nasal tissue that trigger sneezing, itching, congestion, and that endlessly runny nose situation.
  • By targeting the nerve endings that freak out when pollen shows up, the treatment aims to interrupt the “reflex chain reaction” before it spirals into full-blown allergy mode.
  • The effects aren’t instant, they may take a few days to begin effect, but we allow up to 4 weeks for full outcome. The relief of symptoms vary person to person, but many clients claim the results can last for several months.
