If you suffer from an enlarged prostate, you know just how dramatically it can affect your quality of life. You may be waking up several times during the night to use the bathroom. During the day you're probably always on the lookout for the nearest restroom. Fortunately, there is a solution to this common condition - a new treatment option called Cooled ThermoTherapy™. This innovative treatment relieves the symptoms of enlarged prostate in a single, minimally invasive procedure. 

Is Cooled ThermoTherapy right for you?

Cooled ThermoTherapy is designed to solve the problems of an enlarged prostate without the need for drugs, invasive surgery, anesthesia or a hospital stay. Cooled ThermoTherapy is a single, non-surgical procedure that can be performed in the comfort of our office.

The treatment uses a specially-designed catheter that directs high energy heat deep into the prostate to safely destroy the enlarged tissue and reduce the pressure being placed on the urethra.

Advantages and Disadvantages: Cooled ThermoTherapy has been shown to be more cost effective than other treatments--costing a fraction of the thousands of dollars some patients spend on a lifetime of drug therapy. Cooled ThermoTherapy does not require hospitalization, anesthesia or the long recovery time some surgical patients face. This procedure may not be right for everyone as symptom relief may not be immediate. It typically takes several weeks before you experience the full benefit of the treatment.

The Targis^™ System is one of two products that use Cooled ThermoTherapy for the treatment of enlarged prostate. Targis™ is a single, non-surgical treatment that relieves the symptoms associated with enlarged prostate by shrinking the enlarged tissue, while protecting the pain-sensitive healthy urethral tissue. The treatment is anesthesia-free, with no need for IV sedation, spinal or general anesthesia.
