Laser Treatment of Hemorrhoids
Laser Treatment of Hemorrhoids

Gentle Relief for Persistent Discomfort
emorrhoids, often referred to as piles, are a common condition involving the swelling and dilation of blood vessels in and around the anus. These can develop due to chronic increased abdominal pressure from factors such as persistent constipation, chronic coughing, heavy lifting, and frequently during pregnancy. While large hemorrhoids may require surgical removal or banding, smaller external hemorrhoids, though often deemed too small for these interventions, can still cause significant discomfort, including pain, irritation, and bleeding.
At Centrepointe Medical, we offer a gentle and effective solution for these bothersome smaller external hemorrhoids: laser treatment. Our advanced laser technology can precisely target and shrink the stretched skin overlying the external hemorrhoid, as well as the underlying engorged blood vessel. This process helps to alleviate symptoms and improve your comfort without the need for more invasive procedures.
How Laser Treatment Works for Hemorrhoids
Our laser treatment for smaller external hemorrhoids typically involves a series of 3 to 4 monthly office visits. During each session:
- Comfort is Prioritized: A topical anesthetic cream is applied to the treatment area to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
- Precise Targeting: Our specialized laser precisely targets the affected tissue of the external hemorrhoid.
- Vessel Shrinkage: The laser energy gently heats the blood vessels, causing them to shrink and reduce in size.
- Skin Tightening: The laser also helps to contract and tighten the stretched skin overlying the hemorrhoid.
- Minimally Invasive: This is a minimally invasive procedure performed in our comfortable office setting.
