Laser for Hemorrhoids in Chennai

Hi, I’m Dr. V. Preethi, a General and Laparoscopic Surgeon based at Hayagriva Hospital in Chennai. Over the years, I’ve treated countless patients struggling with hemorrhoids—often quietly and painfully. It’s a condition that can deeply affect daily life, yet many delay seeking help out of fear or embarrassment. My goal is to change that conversation by offering a comfortable, modern solution through laser treatment for piles.

Laser surgery has truly transformed the way we approach hemorrhoids today. It’s fast, effective, and minimally invasive—designed to relieve discomfort while significantly reducing recovery time. With over 500 successful surgeries performed, I can confidently say that early intervention using laser techniques not only prevents complications but also restores quality of life in a way that’s reassuring and safe.

What is Laser Treatment for Hemorrhoids?

Laser treatment for hemorrhoids is a cutting-edge, non-invasive surgical method that uses highly focused laser energy to shrink or vaporize the swollen hemorrhoidal tissue. Unlike traditional surgery that requires cutting and suturing, the laser gently targets the affected area with precision, minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues. This results in less bleeding, lower infection risk, and a faster, more comfortable recovery.

It’s most effective for internal hemorrhoids that have advanced to Grades 2 or 3, which often involve prolapse or recurring bleeding. Laser hemorrhoidectomy can often be done as a day-care procedure, meaning you walk in for the surgery and return home the same day. In my practice, I place strong emphasis on patient education—so you’ll fully understand the process and the expectations for healing.

• Bloodless and painless surgical method
• No stitches or deep wounds involved
• Day-care procedure with minimal hospital stay
• Swift recovery and fewer lifestyle restrictions
• Higher precision with minimal post-op complications

Common Symptoms of Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoids, also known as piles, aren’t always visible, but their symptoms can be persistent and disruptive. One of the most common signs is bright red bleeding during bowel movements, which many people mistake as a one-time issue. Another red flag is the presence of a soft or sometimes painful lump near the anus, which can cause discomfort, especially while sitting or passing stools.

Itching, swelling, and a feeling of incomplete evacuation are also telltale signs. If you notice these symptoms occurring repeatedly, it’s important not to dismiss them. Over time, untreated hemorrhoids can worsen in grade and become more difficult to treat. When patients consult me early, I can offer minimally invasive options like laser treatment that are far easier to undergo than they expect.

When is Surgery Needed?

Not every case of piles requires surgery, but there are specific signs that suggest surgical intervention is necessary. If conservative treatments such as creams, sitz baths, or lifestyle changes have failed to relieve your symptoms, surgery becomes the logical next step. Persistent or heavy rectal bleeding over time may result in low blood levels or fatigue-related complications, while bulging hemorrhoids that remain outside the anus can cause intense discomfort, clot formation, or restricted blood flow—conditions that should never be ignored and require timely medical care.

I recommend laser surgery especially in cases of Grade 3 and Grade 4 hemorrhoids, where the hemorrhoids bulge out during bowel movements and do not retract on their own. Surgery is also advisable if your quality of life is consistently compromised. As a surgeon, I always strive to balance medical necessity with patient comfort—choosing options that offer fast relief and low risk.

• Conservative treatments no longer effective
• Frequent prolapse with pain or discomfort
• Hemorrhoids that remain outside the anus (non-reducible)
• Recurrent thrombosed or infected piles
• Daily life is affected due to pain, bleeding, or hygiene issues

My Approach to Hemorrhoid Treatment

Each case of hemorrhoids is different, which is why I believe in a thorough, personalized approach to every treatment plan. When you consult with me, I’ll start with a detailed medical history and a gentle physical examination to assess the grade and severity of your hemorrhoids. Based on these findings, I’ll walk you through all available treatment options—highlighting the safety, benefits, and realistic expectations of laser surgery if it's the best choice for you.

My surgical technique focuses on precision, safety, and patient-centered care. With laser, I can remove or shrink the hemorrhoidal tissue without any major cuts, resulting in less pain and a faster return to normal activities. My patients appreciate that I stay actively involved post-surgery—offering complete support from wound care to lifestyle modifications that ensure long-term relief.

• Individualized treatment based on symptom severity
