Hearthurts,

I think you are still confused about what the treatments are. Let me try to give a brief history, summarize and explain. Initially, ENS sufferers were offered implants by Dr. Houser. These implants were with Alloderm (sheets made from cadaver skin) and is a surgical procedure. Eventually, Dr. Houser began to perform injections of Cymetra (which is just a liquid form of Alloderm) and then later he gave some Acell injections (this is really called Matristem and is of porcine origin but is somewhat similar to Cymetra).  Later on some doctors began providing PRP treatments. The PRP has been available for a little more than a couple of years now. PRP takes multiple treatments to really getting the healing effect. Recently, Dr Das has been providing injections of combined PRP and Acell Matristem. So although Acell is being used by Dr Das, it is in a liquified form and thus is still an injection in the office and not a surgery. An important point to understand is that surgical implants are better at adding volume in cases where the turbinate has been significantly reduced. The intent of the PRP+Acell injection is to heal the existing mucosa but is unlikely to add a significant amount of volume.
 

judging by this sounds like implant in my right is good idea. but nose1 seems  to think implants are bad idea s to do quite a few others, I'm torn. I want o feel relief if i have to drive for 8hours and spent $1500. want to get trhe job done right.
