ProctoLaser — also written procto-laser — is a latest-generation laser technology used in proctology. It treats anal conditions while preserving healthy tissue and promoting fast recovery. Treatment is tailored to the type and stage of the condition. In Arabic it is known as علاج البواسير بالليزر (laser treatment of haemorrhoids).
Conditions treated
- Internal and external haemorrhoids
- Haemorrhoids with bleeding or prolapse
- Anal fissure
- Certain anal fistulas
- Other proctological indications, as assessed by the specialist
Is ProctoLaser painful?
The procedure is performed under anaesthesia, so you feel nothing during the operation. Afterwards, pain is markedly less than after conventional surgery: the laser does not cut tissue with a scalpel, it acts precisely and seals the vessels, which limits post-operative pain and bleeding.
How much does ProctoLaser treatment cost in Casablanca?
The price depends on the condition treated, its stage and the type of hospital stay. You receive a quote before the procedure, and our admissions service checks your insurance cover with you. Contact the clinic’s reception for an estimate suited to your situation.
How does it work?
- The laser acts precisely on the targeted area.
- It shrinks the diseased tissue and seals the small vessels.
- Result: less pain, less bleeding and fast healing.
ProctoLaser or conventional surgery?
Where conventional surgery involves a scalpel incision, with significant post-operative pain, more frequent bleeding, a longer recovery and extended time off work, ProctoLaser is a minimally invasive laser technique:
- Less pain after the procedure
- Little or no bleeding
- Fast recovery and a quick return to daily life
- Fewer complications
- Performed as a day case
- Healthy tissue preserved
Return to activity
- Conventional surgery: 10 to 14 days
- ProctoLaser, typical cases: under a week
- ProctoLaser, some cases: the very next day
These times are indicative and depend on medical assessment and the nature of the case. A consultation with the proctologist is still needed to determine whether ProctoLaser is suitable for you.
