Laser treatment for hemorrhoids takes less than 15 minutes and doesn\u2019t comprise any form of cutting tissue off or stiches.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Causes of Hemorrhoids<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hemorrhoids occur due to the enlargement of veins around the anus.

This is where King\u2019s College Hospital uses laser to treat hemorrhoids with the goal of either making the hemorrhoid disappear, or drastically reduce its size by shrinking it. There are two types of laser hemorrhoids treatment, which include:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Endolaser ablation:<\/strong> Here the laser fiber delivers laser energy into the hemorrhoidal mass causing it to collapse.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Surface Laser Application<\/strong>: For this laser technique, the energy is delivered on the surface of the hemorrhoidal mass.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>How laser hemorrhoids treatment works<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The laser treatment for hemorrhoids is one of the most effective minimally invasive hemorrhoid treatments that achieves results without cutting any tissues off. The treatments can be used for different internal hemorrhoids grades.<\/p>\n<p>During the treatment, a special needle probe or fiber with a blunt hot tip is inserted into the cushion of the hemorrhoid whereby the laser energy is applied. This then restricts the hemorrhoid\u2019s blood supply, which causes the hemorrhoidal mass to close, die and detach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long does the laser hemorrhoids treatment procedure take?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The treatment is a day case procedure, which means you\u2019ll be discharged on the same day without staying overnight. It typically takes less than 15 minutes to perform under local anesthesia. In some instances, some patients prefer to take a mild sedative to relax during the procedure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is the procedure painful?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most people who have undergone laser hemorrhoids treatment usually report very minimal pain or discomfort after the treatment. The downtime of the procedure is also very minimal considering there is no cutting or tissue removing involved<\/p>\n<h4>Why You Should Choose King\u2019s College Hospital Dubai for your hemorrhoid\u2019s treatment?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Our board certified and experienced doctors are the best in their field and have experience in the latest techniques of haemorrhoids treatment.<\/li>\n<li>At King\u2019s College Hospital, we have state-of-the-art facilities, and use the latest and minimally invasive techniques to achieve faster healing with minimal downtime.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At King\u2019s College Hospital London Dubai, we focus on patient care, and safety in a compassionate environment.
