The UroLift system relieves BPH obstruction mechanically: small permanent implants are placed to pull the enlarged prostate lobes aside, widening the channel without cutting or heating tissue. Because no tissue is destroyed or removed, recovery is typically quick.
UroLift treats an enlarged prostate with tiny implants that hold the obstructing lobes open — no cutting, no heating and no tissue removed — with a fast recovery that usually preserves sexual function. Available at Smile Urology in Seomyeon, Busan for suitable patients.

It suits men who want rapid recovery and a high likelihood of preserving ejaculation, provided their prostate anatomy is appropriate — which we confirm before recommending it.
Accurate testing guides accurate care. Many patients are assessed and started on treatment the same day.
Prostate ultrasound and, where needed, direct inspection confirm the anatomy is suited to implants.
Standard BPH work-up establishes prostate size and the degree of obstruction.
We explain how the implants work, recovery expectations and how UroLift compares with Rezum and Plasma TURIS.
Symptom relief is often rapid; we review flow and symptoms afterward.
A non-heating, no-cut option that lifts the prostate lobes aside, typically with fast recovery and preserved ejaculation.
UroLift is chosen partly for its high likelihood of preserving sexual function.
Because no tissue is removed, many men recover quickly and avoid a long catheter period.
If your anatomy is not ideal for UroLift, Rezum or Plasma TURIS may be recommended instead.
UroLift is offered alongside Rezum and Plasma TURIS, so the advice you get reflects your anatomy rather than a single available method. For international patients, the quick recovery can suit a limited stay — but only when the prostate is genuinely suitable, which we confirm honestly before proceeding.
UroLift mechanically holds the prostate open with implants and removes no tissue; Rezum shrinks tissue with steam over weeks. Both aim to preserve sexual function; the best choice depends on your anatomy.
No. UroLift places small implants without cutting or heating, which is why recovery is usually fast.
UroLift is designed to preserve ejaculatory function in suitable patients; individual results are discussed beforehand.
Candidacy depends on prostate anatomy, especially the shape and any middle-lobe enlargement, which we assess before recommending it.
