Water Vapor Therapy (Rezum) For BPH
​
Water Vapor Therapy (Rezum) uses the natural energy stored in water vapor, or steam, available to relieve symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
​
During each 9 second treatment, sterile water vapor is released throughout the targeted prostate tissue. When the steam turns back into water, all the stored energy is released, causing the cells to die.
​
Over time, your body’s natural healing response removes the dead cells, shrinking the prostate. With the extra tissue removed, the urethra opens, reducing BPH symptoms.
