Laser Treatment of Hemorrhoids

Laser hemorrhoidoplasty applies controlled laser energy inside the hemorrhoidal tissue so that it shrinks and its blood supply is reduced, without extensive tissue excision.

How it is performed

Through a thin fibre, laser energy is delivered within the hemorrhoidal cushion. The procedure is performed under appropriate anaesthesia and planned according to the grade and distribution of the disease.

Clinical considerations

Suitable grade and anatomy confirmed at examination
Alternative options including conservative treatment are reviewed first
Combination with other techniques may be required
Follow-up is part of the treatment plan
