Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or enlarged prostate, is one of the most common conditions men face as they age. Dr. Colin Linke offers office-based Rezūm water vapor therapy and a full range of minimally invasive BPH treatments to reduce urinary symptoms and improve quality of life.
BPH occurs when the prostate enlarges and presses against the urethra, causing urinary symptoms that gradually worsen over time. Although the condition is not cancer, it can significantly impact daily life and sleep.
Men with BPH often experience a combination of urinary symptoms. These symptoms tend to progress gradually and may become more frequent or severe over time.
Rezūm is an FDA-approved, minimally invasive procedure that uses natural water vapor energy to shrink excess prostate tissue. The treatment takes just a few minutes and is performed right in the office using local anesthesia or Nitronox for comfort. Most patients return to normal activity within a few days, with symptoms continuing to improve for several weeks.
No incisions; performed in the office.
Symptom improvement typically begins within weeks.
Many patients stop BPH medications after treatment.
Rezūm is a great option for men who want long-lasting relief from urinary symptoms without the downtime or risks of traditional surgery. Dr. Linke will evaluate prostate size, urinary symptoms, and personal treatment goals to determine the best approach.
