{Price estimate cover all the medical & logistics expenses at the destination} International Destinations: India, Turkey, Mexico, Jordan, South Korea The GreenLight Laser treatment therapy is the most effective, novel and advanced technique for the treatment of an enlarged prostate, which is clinically referred to as Benign Prostratic Hyperplasia (BPH).
The treatment involves a laser beam therapy which evaporates the enlarged prostatic tissue that presses on the outlet of the urinary bladder causing urinary outflow obstruction symptoms. The procedure involves the use of a high powered system (80-120 watts), which generates laser beams, which vaporizes the extra prostatic tissue. This is unlike other procedures like Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP), which use electrical current to burn the tissue, and also puts the surrounding structures at risk of being burnt and destroyed. The procedure is also referred to as Laser Ablation of the prostate or Photo-selective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) or photo vaporization of the prostate. This procedure has a greater efficacy (compared to other laser treatments like interstitial laser therapy-Indigo and Holmium laser therapy-Lumenis) with fewer side- effects, complications and risks. Several American patients prefer to travel abroad to get treated for Benign prostatic enlargement, due to the advantage of cost and no post operative hospitalization stay. Some of the international destinations that offer this procedure include India, Turkey, Jordan, South Korea and Mexico. Why Green Light Laser Treatment for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)?
