StanTop Urology & Andrology Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, South Korea offers several choices for enlarged prostate treatment. Aquablation therapy is an innovative, minimally invasive procedure for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or enlarged prostate. This advanced robotic procedure uses the power of water to remove excess prostate tissue, providing an effective alternative to traditional surgical methods.

The procedure combines real-time, multi-dimensional imaging with robotics and a heat-free waterjet to precisely and efficiently remove prostate tissue, which allows for personalized treatment planning based on each patient’s unique anatomy. The procedure is performed by a urologist who controls the robot, ensuring expert decision-making throughout the surgery.

One of the key advantages of Aquablation is its ability to treat prostates of various sizes and shapes, including those that are too large for other minimally invasive treatments. The procedure typically takes less than an hour to complete, with most patients experiencing minimal blood loss and a shorter hospital stay compared to traditional prostate surgeries.

Aquablation offers several benefits over conventional BPH treatments. It provides significant and lasting symptom relief while reducing the risk of side effects such as erectile dysfunction and ejaculatory issues. The precision of the robotic system helps preserve important structures surrounding the prostate, potentially leading to better outcomes.

The laser used in Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP) surgery is an advanced device that has both cutting and coagulation capabilities, which sets it apart from other laser devices. Operating at a wavelength of 2100 mm, it allows for efficient cutting with minimal thermal damage, offering a distinct advantage in achieving hemostasis during surgery, resulting in reduced bleeding.
