Laser hemorrhoidopexy (LHP)

Laser Hemorrhoidopexy (LHP), also known as Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty, is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure for treating symptomatic hemorrhoids (piles). Unlike traditional excisional surgery (hemorrhoidectomy) that involves cutting and removing swollen tissue, LHP uses a precisely focused laser beam. A thin laser fiber is inserted into the hemorrhoidal node, delivering controlled energy to shrink the pile mass from the inside and seal off its blood supply.

This approach eliminates the need for any surgical incisions or stitches in the sensitive anal area. At ELEMENTAL Medical Center in Dubai, we offer LHP to help patients resume their daily lives with minimal pain and downtime. The procedure is performed as a daycare procedure, allowing patients to go home the same day without the need for a hospital stay

LHP is indicated for patients suffering from Grades II and III internal hemorrhoids, particularly those experiencing prolapse, bleeding, and significant discomfort during bowel movements. Choosing LHP at ELEMENTAL offers you several distinct advantages over conventional surgical methods:

Minimal to No Pain: Most patients experience only mild discomfort during and after the procedure. Laser energy causes minimal trauma to the surrounding healthy tissues, significantly reducing post-operative pain compared to traditional surgery
No Cutting or Stitches: Unlike open surgery, the laser fiber is inserted through a tiny puncture, which means no large incisions, no bleeding, and no stitches
Fast Recovery & Return to Work: The recovery period is remarkably short. Patients typically return to their normal daily activities and work within 3 to 5 days post-procedure, a significant reduction from the 3-4 weeks required after conventional hemorrhoidectomy
Preservation of Anatomy: The procedure is non-resectional, meaning it does not involve removing tissue. This preserves the normal anatomy and function of the anal canal, reducing the risk of complications such as anal stenosis or incontinence
