What Is Laser Treatment for Enlarged Prostate?

Laser prostate treatment is a minimally invasive procedure used for some patients with benign prostatic enlargement (BPH). The urologist uses laser energy to remove or vaporise excess prostate tissue that is blocking urine flow.

Depending on the patient's condition, the doctor may recommend a procedure such as HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate) or another suitable laser technique.

The appropriate procedure depends on prostate size, urinary symptoms, urine flow, overall health and the urologist's assessment.
