Advanced BPH Treatment

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), commonly known as an enlarged prostate, affects a significant number of Australian men over 50. Dr Brown offers a range of proven treatment options so you can find the approach that best suits your symptoms, health, and lifestyle.

HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate)

HoLEP is considered the gold-standard surgical treatment for moderate to large prostates. Dr Brown has over a decade of experience performing laser prostate surgery and is an Olympus-accredited trainer, teaching other surgeons across Australia in laser enucleation using the Soltive pulsed Thulium laser.

iTind Procedure

Dr Brown was the first urologist in Australia accredited to perform the iTind procedure for BPH. This minimally invasive treatment reshapes the prostate without cutting, burning, or leaving a permanent implant, making it a compelling option for men seeking an alternative to medication or traditional surgery.

Rezum (Water Vapour Therapy)

Rezum uses targeted steam energy to reduce excess prostate tissue. It is typically performed as a day procedure and aims to preserve sexual function while providing lasting symptom relief.

TURP

Transurethral resection of the prostate remains a well-established surgical option for BPH. Dr Brown performs TURP when it is the most appropriate treatment for the patient’s prostate size and clinical presentation.
