Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), or prostate enlargement, is a condition that affects more than half of men over 50. The prostate gland surrounds the urethra, and as it enlarges, it can squeeze the urinary channel, causing bothersome urinary symptoms.
At Advanced Urology, we understand how disruptive BPH can be—frequent trips to the bathroom, weak stream, difficulty emptying the bladder, and waking multiple times at night. We also know that many men are concerned about the risks and side effects of traditional surgeries. That’s why we are proud to offer the UroLift System, a minimally invasive option that restores urine flow while preserving sexual function.
Performed in our state-of-the-art ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), UroLift has become one of the most trusted solutions for men with small to moderately enlarged prostates.
What Is UroLift?
UroLift is a minimally invasive procedure designed specifically for men with prostates under 50 grams in size. Instead of cutting, heating, or removing prostate tissue, UroLift works by gently moving the enlarged prostate lobes out of the way.
- Tiny permanent implants are placed through the urethra.
- These implants act like small curtain tie-backs, pulling back the tissue and holding it open.
- The result is an immediate improvement in urine flow and relief of symptoms.
Because no tissue is removed, the procedure is less invasive than traditional surgeries and is associated with fewer risks and faster recovery.
Benefits of UroLift
Men choose UroLift because it combines effectiveness with safety and convenience.
- Great option for prostates under 50g: UroLift is ideal for men with small to moderately enlarged prostates who want quick relief without invasive surgery.
- No sexual side effects: Unlike TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate) or laser procedures, UroLift does not affect erections or ejaculation. This makes it especially appealing to men who want to maintain sexual function.
- Immediate results: Many patients notice improved flow and reduced symptoms within days.
- Quick recovery: Most men return to normal activity within 1–2 days.
- Outpatient procedure: No hospital stay required; it’s performed in our ASC and patients go home the same day.
- Durable outcomes: Clinical studies show symptom relief lasting for years, with low retreatment rates.
What to Expect During the Procedure
- Before: Patients are evaluated with imaging and flow studies to confirm prostate size and determine if UroLift is the right choice.
- During: The procedure typically takes less than an hour. It is done under light anesthesia for comfort. The implants are placed through a specialized delivery device inserted into the urethra.
- After: Patients usually go home the same day. Mild urinary urgency or burning may occur for a few days, but this resolves quickly.
Most men experience a dramatic improvement in symptoms within the first few weeks.
