Treatment of hemorrhoids without surgery! Get to know the LHP laser treatment

Laser treatment LHP is a modern method of hemorrhoid treatment that is gentle and effective. It consists in treating hemorrhoidal nodes with a laser, making them smaller and fixing them from the inside. The procedure is outpatient, painless and with fast healing. Our experience shows that laser hemorrhoidoplasty is a very safe and effective procedure, especially when compared to other surgical treatment techniques.

Benefits of laser treatment

Laser treatment for LHP is done using a thin fiber that is inserted into the rectum. This eliminates the need for large incisions and minimizes tissue trauma.

The entire procedure takes only 20-30 minutes and is outpatient. This means that the patient can go home immediately after the procedure.

Due to the gentle nature of the procedure, hospitalization is not necessary. The patient can return home and to normal life after the procedure.

Laser treatment of LHP is much less painful than conventional hemorrhoid surgery. Patients experience only mild stinging and pain, which can be easily managed with over-the-counter painkillers.

Due to minimized tissue trauma, patients heal much faster after LHP laser treatment than after conventional surgery. Most patients feel comfortable within 2-3 days and can return to their normal activities within 7-10 days.

Laser treatment of LHP is associated with a low risk of complications. The most common complications include mild bleeding and swelling, but these quickly subside.
