Has anyone had submucosal glossectomy with Plasma surgery or considered it? I had MMA about 2 months ago. And had lots of other surgeries for sleep apnea. So far MMA has not worked. I will give it a little more time, but I want to get a head start because I am suffering so much.

I think the problem is a thick tongue base as was told to me by a few doctors.

I have also heard and read the tongue is a big problem with sleep apnea.

I read articles on it and it seems like it is being done more.

So I would love to hear from patients who had it and there sucess and the risks.

Also can you give me the initials of the surgeon who did it and what hospital/school the surgeon is out of

Thank a million
