Am I a candidate for UroLift?
At a glance
UroLift uses small implants to hold enlarged prostate tissue out of the way, so urine flows more easily. Nothing is cut or removed.
Details
Typical candidates have a prostate under about 50 grams with no large middle lobe, and want to protect ejaculation and recover quickly. It's performed by our urologists in our surgery centers. Burning and frequent urination for roughly two weeks are expected. Some men need another procedure later.
When to call
If BPH pills aren't working, ask whether UroLift fits your prostate.

Advanced Urology on UroLift
First visit in Dallas
Prostate symptoms in Paulding County men are often first assessed by Daniel Roberson, PA-C, at our Dallas Clinic. He'll review your symptoms, medicines and urine test, check how much urine stays behind, and arrange prostate measurement when needed.
Who tends to fit
UroLift uses small implants to hold the enlarged prostate tissue away from the urethra, without cutting or removing tissue. It often suits men with moderate prostate size who want to stop daily pills or protect ejaculation. Very large glands or certain prostate shapes may do better with another option, such as Aquablation, TURP or prostate artery embolization. Our urologists perform UroLift in Marietta.
Call promptly if
- You can't urinate
- Fever develops
- Blood in the urine becomes heavy

Many men also like that UroLift leaves future treatment options open if they're ever needed.
