UroLift® System

FDA Approved BPH Treatment

The UroLift® System treatment is a revolutionary, minimally invasive approach to treating an enlarged prostate, or BPH, that lifts or holds the enlarged prostate tissue out of the way so it no longer blocks the urethra. The goal of treatment is to relieve symptoms so you can get back to your life and resume your daily activities. There is no cutting, heating or removal of prostate tissue. The UroLift Procedure was FDA approved in 2013 and is backed by multiple clinical trials. Now, over 300,000 men have been treated with the Urolift System with more than 1.25 million Urolift implants. Medicare and most major commercial insurance plans cover the Urolift System treatment.

Clinical data has shown that the UroLift® System treatment is safe and effective in relieving lower urinary tract symptoms due to BPH without compromising sexual function(1,3)

A Minimally Invasive BPH Treatment
