GreenLight Laser Therapy: Surgical & Post-Operative Considerations

GreenLight laser therapy is a minimally-invasive treatment for benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). In this procedure, a laser fiber is inserted through a transurethral cystoscope and is used to enucleate excessive prostate tissue.

Rezum Procedure Complications & Recovery

A Rezum procedure (water vapor therapy) is a surgical BPH treatment that uses water vapor to ablate excess prostate tissue, which is naturally resorbed by the body. Learn more about how a Rezum procedure compares to UroLift, including complications, recovery, and side effects.
