UroLift: am I a candidate?

By Advanced Urology · November 10, 2026

Am I a candidate for UroLift?

At a glance

UroLift uses small implants to hold enlarged prostate tissue out of the way, so urine flows more easily. Nothing is cut or removed.

Details

Typical candidates have a prostate under about 50 grams with no large middle lobe, and want to protect ejaculation and recover quickly. It's performed by our urologists in our surgery centers. Burning and frequent urination for roughly two weeks are expected. Some men need another procedure later.

When to call

If BPH pills aren't working, ask whether UroLift fits your prostate.

Advanced Urology on UroLift

First visit in Dallas

Prostate symptoms in Paulding County men are often first assessed by Daniel Roberson, PA-C, at our Dallas Clinic. He'll review your symptoms, medicines and urine test, check how much urine stays behind, and arrange prostate measurement when needed.

Who tends to fit

UroLift uses small implants to hold the enlarged prostate tissue away from the urethra, without cutting or removing tissue. It often suits men with moderate prostate size who want to stop daily pills or protect ejaculation. Very large glands or certain prostate shapes may do better with another option, such as Aquablation, TURP or prostate artery embolization. Our urologists perform UroLift in Marietta.

Call promptly if

  • You can't urinate
  • Fever develops
  • Blood in the urine becomes heavy

Common questions

Common questions

How long is recovery?

Many men are back to usual activities within days. Burning, urgency and a little blood in the urine are common for a short time afterward.

Will I need a catheter?

Many men go home without one, and some need a catheter briefly if they can't empty well right after. Men with larger prostates or who already struggle to empty are more likely to need one.

Dallas, Hiram and Powder Springs men book by phoning (678) 344-8900.

Bring a list of the prostate medicines you've tried and how they worked. For a short while afterward, some burning, urgency or a trace of blood is normal, and we'll go over this before discharge. Follow-up can often be done in Dallas.

Many men also like that UroLift leaves future treatment options open if they're ever needed.
