How Does The UroLift System Work?
The UroLift System uses a revolutionary approach to treating BPH that lifts and holds the enlarged prostate tissue so it no longer blocks the urethra. It is the only BPH treatment performed by a urologist that does not require heating, cutting, or removal of the prostate tissue. The procedure is typically performed using local anesthesia in a physician’s office or ambulatory surgery center. Patients typically return home the same day without a catheter.

The UroLift System consists of a delivery device and small permanent implants. • The UroLift Delivery Device is placed through the obstructed urethra. • Small UroLift Implants are placed to lift or hold the enlarged prostate tissue out of the way like a curtain-tie. The Implants are delivered through a small needle that comes out of the delivery device and into the prostate. • The UroLift Delivery Device is removed, leaving an open urethra that provides symptom relief. One unique aspect of the UroLift System is that it does not keep someone from having future BPH treatments if they are necessary.
