Benefits of In-Office UroLift™ for BPH Relief

Urinary problems caused by an enlarged prostate, or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), are extremely common as men age. Symptoms such as frequent urination, weak stream, or difficulty starting and stopping can interfere with daily life.

The UroLift™ System is a proven, minimally invasive procedure that opens the blocked urethra without cutting, heating, or removing tissue — helping men find relief for BPH symptoms without the long recovery of traditional surgery.

Dr. Ori Hampel is highly trained at using the UroLift® procedure to treat BPH. We’re proud to offer in-office UroLift procedures as part of our commitment to patient comfort, efficiency, and high-quality outcomes. Here’s why this option is growing in popularity and why it might be right for you.

What is the UroLift System?

The UroLift System procedure lifts and holds the enlarged prostate tissue away from the urethra, reducing blockage and improving urinary flow. It’s FDA-approved and typically performed in less than an hour. Plus, it doesn’t require a hospital stay, a catheter, or general anesthesia. Here’s how it works:

The UroLift Delivery Device is placed through the obstructed urethra to access the enlarged prostate.

Small UroLift implants are permanently placed to lift and hold the enlarged prostate tissue out of the way.

The UroLift Delivery Device is removed, leaving an open urethra to improve flow and provide lasting BPH symptom relief.

Why In-Office UroLift Makes a Difference

At Bhalani Urology Institute, we perform the UroLift procedure right here in our comfortable, state-of-the-art office. Here’s what that means for you:

Faster access to care: No need to wait for an operating room or hospital referral

Streamlined scheduling and recovery

Personalized care from a dedicated local team

Familiar environment, with the same team that knows your health history

Cost-effective alternative to hospital-based care

Our patients often return home the same day and resume normal activities within a few days, which is a significant advantage over more invasive surgical options.

Medication-Free Relief That Lasts

Unlike medications for BPH (which often come with side effects like dizziness, fatigue, or sexual dysfunction), UroLift delivers targeted relief without daily pills. It’s especially ideal for men who:

Prefer to avoid long-term medications

Have experienced side effects from BPH drugs

Are not ready for or interested in surgery

Want to preserve sexual function and avoid complications

UroLift has been shown to offer lasting symptom relief and is covered by most insurance plans, including Medicare.
