What is Rezūm?
Powered by Convective Water Vapor Energy (WAVE®) technology, Rezūm applies thermal energy to effectively treat lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to BPH2. Each treatment uses 0.42ml of heated sterile water vapor3 which rapidly and uniformly disperses through the tissue interstices.
The condensation of water vapor releases stored thermal energy. Cell membranes are gently denatured, thereby causing immediate cell death, the vasculature is closed, and there is denervation of the alpha adrenergic nerves within the treatment zone providing you with an efficient, uniform, predictable treatment.4
Over time, this ablated tissue is reabsorbed by the body’s natural healing response, reducing the volume of tissue allowing the urethra to open relieving LUTS.
The Rezūm System
Rezūm is a treatment for BPH that can be performed in a clinic or outpatient setting. Rezūm uses the stored thermal energy in water vapor (steam) to treat the extra prostate tissue that is causing symptoms such as frequency, urgency, irregular flow, weak stream, straining, and getting up at night to urinate.
Benefits of Rezūm:
- Potential alternative to BPH medications
- Relieves symptoms safely and effectively1
- Provides noticeable symptom improvement within two weeks1
- Simple in-office/outpatient therapy
- Does not require general anesthesia
- Preserves sexual and urinary functions1
- Allows patients to return to regular activities within a few days1
