Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	There is disclosed a method of forming a nasal implant comprising: forming an implant core comprising a distal end, a proximal end, a central portion disposed between the proximal end and the distal end, a first arm disposed at the distal end, the arm having a proximal end fixed to the central portion and a distal end not fixed to the central portion, the distal end of the first arm being adapted to move away from a central longitudinal axis of the central portion from a delivery configuration toward a deployed configuration, and a second arm having a proximal end fixed to the central portion and a distal end not fixed to the central portion, the distal end of the second arm being adapted to move away from a central longitudinal axis of the central portion from a delivery configuration toward a deployed configuration, wherein the first arm is biased toward the deployed configuration and the second arm is biased toward the deployed configuration, and wherein the implant core comprises a degradable material; and applying a degradable coating on an outer surface of the implant core, wherein the degradable coating and the implant core do not deliver a pharmaceutical agent or a drug.
