So these doctors at zelegent noticed that plastic surgens started using "barbed sutures" for things like facelifts. Think, barbed wire, a barb is a little pointy thing. Turns out, if you raise the back part of the mouth called the "soft palate" with a barbed suture it holds it in place like never before. It basically cures snoring without having to wear a device at night or have major surgey. A doctor can raise your soft palate in about an hour with very little pain. It's not on the market yet, about to get FDA approval. But if you snore or your SO snores you should ask about zelegent.
