Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common health problem among older men that directly affects the urinary system and daily life — whether it be frequent urination, incomplete bladder emptying, or waking up repeatedly during the night. Today, medical technology has advanced rapidly, meaning treatment no longer relies solely on major surgery.
The Urology Center at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya is committed to developing and advancing excellence in innovative treatment, with the ultimate goal of delivering the best possible outcomes and restoring quality of life for every patient.
In 2025, the Urology Center at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya treated 14,130 urological patients, reinforcing the trust patients place in our medical team and our service standards.
Of the total patient count, 1,360 patients with BPH received treatment and care at the center. We offer a variety of treatment options tailored to each individual, including minimally invasive innovative treatments for BPH, with 222 patients treated using these new innovations (combined statistics for 2024–2025).

REZUM technology uses heated, purified steam injected directly into the enlarged prostate tissue that is obstructing the urethra, causing the prostate cells to shrink and dissolve, thereby widening the urinary passage.
Highlight: Short procedure time, no hospital stay required
Treatment Outcomes (based on real patient statistics):
UROLIFT technology uses a small instrument to retract and hold the enlarged prostate tissue that is blocking the urethra, securing it in place with a small implant similar to a staple, allowing urine to flow more freely.
Highlight: Immediate results, fast recovery, no hospital stay required
Treatment Outcomes (based on real patient statistics):
Medical Outcomes Disclaimer: This statistical information is retrospective data from patients who received treatment. Results may vary depending on the stage of the disease, overall health condition, and the individual response of each patient.
Our commitment is reflected in our philosophy: “We focus on precise treatment that minimizes impact on daily life, for the best possible outcomes for our patients.” Our specialist urology team is ready to conduct thorough assessments and develop personalized treatment plans — whether that involves medication, minimally invasive innovations such as REZUM and UROLIFT, or endoscopic surgery where necessary.
No hospital stay is required. Both REZUM and UROLIFT are minimally invasive procedures that take a short time to perform. Patients can return home the same day and recover quickly.
UROLIFT (a urethral lift device) delivers immediate results with a fast recovery — helping patients experience a noticeably improved quality of life right away.
Based on our center’s treatment data, patients who underwent REZUM (steam energy therapy) experienced a 43% improvement in urinary symptoms and a 47% improvement in quality of life. Results may vary depending on the stage of the condition, overall health, and individual response to treatment.
These treatments are suitable for patients with enlarged prostate experiencing urinary difficulty or frequent urination who have not responded well to medication, prefer not to take long-term medication, or wish to avoid major surgery. A specialist will assess each patient’s suitability on an individual basis.
