NJCUC is happy to offer GreenLight™ Laser Therapy In-Office Procedures.

The GreenLight™ Laser Therapy is a treatment that combines the effectiveness of the traditional surgical procedure known as
"Trans Urethral Resection of the Prostate" (TURP) with fewer side effects.

GreenLight is suitable for most patients with an enlarged prostate.

GreenLight uses laser energy to remove enlarged prostate tissue. This results in an open channel for urine flow through, but with less risks of sexual and other side-effects common with TURP.

Most patients return home a few short hours after the PVP procedure and can return to normal, non-strenuous activities within days.

    

Advantages to GreenLight™ Laser Therapy

Rapid urine flow improvement
Quick return to normal activities
Virtually bloodless procedure
Less than 1% reported cases of erectile dysfunction
Short to sometimes no catheterization (less than 24 hours in most cases)
Outpatient procedure in otherwise healthy patients
Long lasting symptom relief
Over 200,000 procedures worldwide
