Minimally Invasive Treatment for an Enlarged Prostate
Rezum uses natural water vapor to reduce the size of the prostate and provide lasting symptom relief without invasive surgery or some of the potential side effects of prescription drugs.
UroLift is a straightforward procedure that utilizes tiny implants to lift and hold the enlarged prostate tissue out of the way so it no longer blocks the urethra. There is no cutting, heating or removal of prostate tissue.

Small, permanent implants are placed into the prostate to lift and hold the enlarged tissue out of the way, relieving pressure on the urethra and allowing urine to flow. There is no cutting, heating, or removal of prostate tissue required which means a minimally invasive, straightforward procedure and less downtime.
The small UroLift implant is made from commonly used implantable materials. Typically, four implants are used per patient.
