The UroLift System

Get back out there.

A proven approach to treating BPH that lifts and holds enlarged prostate tissue out of the way, so it no longer blocks the urethra.

#1 chosen minimally invasive BPH procedure in the U.S.*

How The UroLift System Works

The UroLift™ System procedure can be performed as a same-day outpatient procedure, including the office setting, under local anesthesia.1 Patients typically return home with no overnight stay and no catheter required after treatment.2 Here's how it works.

An enlarged prostate

Step 2 of the UroLift system

Step 2

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

Step 3 of the UroLift system
