Why Laser Surgery Has Replaced Open Surgery

Open haemorrhoidectomy was the standard piles treatment for decades. Today, laser proctology offers a safer, faster, and less painful alternative — which is why Sunrise Piles Hospital specialises exclusively in laser and minimally invasive techniques.

5 Reasons Patients Choose Laser Surgery

  1. 1

    No Stitches

    Laser energy shrinks tissue with minimal invasiveness. No open wounds to heal.

  2. 2

    Daycare Procedure

    Completed in 15–45 minutes. Go home the same day — no overnight stay.

  3. 3

    Minimal Blood Loss

    Laser coagulates blood vessels instantly — virtually bloodless procedure.

  4. 4

    Faster Recovery

    Return to desk work in 2–3 days vs 2–3 weeks with open surgery.

  5. 5

    Less Post-Operative Pain

    Significantly less discomfort — less dependence on pain medication.

Who Is Eligible for Laser Surgery?

  • Grade 2–4 internal and external piles
