There are actually two types of hemroids treatments involving a laser: laser coagulation therapy and laser excision. In laser coagulation therapy, the laser is actually used to create scar tissue which cuts off the blood supply to the hemorrhoidal tissue, causing it to eventually shrink up and die. The scar tissue also acts to prevent future hemorrhoids from occurring by strengthening the anal walls, thus preventing the veins there from bulging and developing into hemroids. In laser excision, the laser beam is actually used to vaporize the hemroids altogether. The hemorrhoidal tissue is completely removed, right away. Furthermore, the risk of reoccurrence of your hemorrhoids is small, and that can in turn mean that the treatment ends up costing less than other hemroids treatments that you have to repeat. #Rhoid Rage (& recovery) source: https://www.hemorrhoids.o..

I wonder if the laser coagulation is called laser hemorrhoidoplasty? I have always thought of trying that procedure because I feel as if the THD surgery I had was not a complete success.
