Understanding Smell Loss (Anosmia)
Anosmia is the partial or complete loss of smell, often affecting taste and life safety. Common causes include viruses like COVID-19, chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, head trauma, or allergic rhinitis.
Expert Smell Assessment in Singapore
- Clinical History: Comprehensive review of symptoms and triggers.
- Nasal Endoscopy: Precise examination for obstructions or polyps.
- Objective Testing: Validated smell identification tests.
- Olfactory Mapping: Determining if the cause is conductive or sensorineural.
Advanced PRP Therapy for Anosmia
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) uses your own concentrated growth factors to stimulate nerve regeneration. Prepared via precision centrifugation, it is delivered directly to the olfactory niche high in the nasal cavity under gentle endoscopic guidance for maximum efficacy.
Who It's For
Recovery & Safety
Ideal for patients with persistent sensorineural smell loss, including post-COVID-19 syndrome, who have not responded to standard therapies.
A minimally invasive clinic procedure with zero downtime. We emphasise precision and safety in our premium Orchard Road facility.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can smell loss be permanent?
While post-viral loss often resolves, early intervention with treatments like PRP or smell training provides the best chance for recovery.
What is parosmia?
Parosmia is a distortion where smells seem unpleasant or chemical. It is often a sign that nerves are attempting to regrow.
Understanding Smell Loss
Anosmia impacts safety and life quality. Causes include post-viral syndromes, chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, and head trauma. Identifying the cause is the first step to recovery.
Specialist ENT Assessment
Our diagnostics include nasal endoscopy and validated UPSIT smell tests. Each patient receives a personalized rehabilitation plan focused on sensory health and long-term recovery.
Nerve extensions of the olfactory bulb protrude through the 20 or so openings in the ethmoid bone to the nasal cavities. Here, the nerve extensions receive chemical information from circulating odor molecules and convey the signals to the cerebral cortex to be processed and perceived as smell.
PRP: Regenerative Science
We use Platelet-Rich Plasma to stimulate sensory repair. PRP is derived from your own blood and precisely delivered to the olfactory niche high in the nasal cavity under endoscopic guidance.
Recovery & Suitability
PRP is suitable for those with persistent anosmia. Results are gradual and supported by olfactory retraining. Specialist evaluation is required to determine the best clinical path for you.
