About Piles
What are piles (haemorrhoids)?▼
Piles are swollen veins in the rectum and anus. They can be internal (inside the rectum) or external (under the skin around the anus). Symptoms include bleeding, pain, and itching.
What causes piles?▼
Common causes include chronic constipation, straining during bowel movements, a low-fibre diet, prolonged sitting on the toilet, pregnancy, obesity, and a family history of piles.
Can piles be cured permanently?▼
Yes. Laser piles treatment at Sunrise Piles Hospital has a 95%+ success rate. With proper treatment and lifestyle changes (high-fibre diet, adequate hydration), piles can be permanently resolved.
About Laser Treatment
Is laser piles surgery painful?▼
No. Laser procedures are performed under local or short general anaesthesia, so you feel no pain during the procedure. Post-operative discomfort is minimal compared to traditional surgery.
How long does the laser procedure take?▼
Most procedures are completed within 30–45 minutes. You can go home the same day (daycare procedure) within 4–6 hours of arrival.
What is the recovery time after laser piles surgery?▼
Most patients return to desk work and light daily activities within 2–3 days. Strenuous activity should be avoided for 1 week. Full recovery is typically within 2–3 weeks.
Is there any cut or stitch in laser surgery?▼
No. Laser surgery for piles does not require any surgical incisions or stitches. The laser energy precisely targets and shrinks the haemorrhoidal tissue.
Insurance & Cost
Is piles treatment covered by insurance?▼
Yes. Sunrise Piles Hospital accepts PMJAY (Ayushman Bharat), ESI, Star Health, HDFC ERGO, New India Assurance, Bajaj Allianz, Niva Bupa, United India, and most major private health insurance plans.
What is the cost of laser piles treatment in Pune?▼

Pre & Post Procedure
How should I prepare for laser piles surgery?▼
You will be given specific pre-operative instructions during your consultation. Generally, you may need to fast for 6–8 hours before the procedure. Bowel preparation may be required.
What should I eat after laser piles treatment?▼
A high-fibre diet (vegetables, fruits, whole grains) with plenty of water (8–10 glasses per day) is recommended. Avoid spicy, oily, and processed foods. Stool softeners may be prescribed for the first week.
When can I bathe after the procedure?▼
Most patients can take a warm sitz bath (sitting in warm water) within 24 hours of the procedure, which provides comfort and promotes healing.
