Prostate Artery Embolization

Southern VIP now offers minimally-invasive relief for an enlarged prostate. If you’re experiencing frequent urination, weak urine stream, or interrupted sleep due to an enlarged prostate, you’re not alone. Millions of men suffer from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)—a common, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate that can significantly affect daily life.

At Southern VIP Union City, we now offer Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE), a minimally-invasive procedure that provides effective, long-term relief from BPH symptoms without the need for traditional surgery.

What Is Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE)?

PAE is a non-surgical, image-guided treatment that works by reducing blood flow to the prostate, causing it to shrink naturally over time. The procedure is performed through a tiny catheter inserted into the arteries that supply the prostate.
How It Works:

Using advanced imaging, a catheter is guided to the arteries feeding the prostate.
Small embolic particles are released to block blood flow.
This reduces the size of the prostate, relieving pressure on the urethra and improving urinary symptoms.

Unlike surgical procedures, PAE does not require cutting, general anesthesia, or a hospital stay. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days and experience steady symptom improvement over time

Benefits of PAE Over Traditional Prostate Surgery?

Many men avoid seeking treatment for BPH due to concerns about surgery, potential complications, or long recovery times. PAE offers a low-risk, outpatient alternative that preserves quality of life while delivering proven results.

Benefits of PAE:

Minimally invasive procedure with no incisions
No general anesthesia required
Shorter recovery period; most patients go home the same day
Lower risk of side effects such as sexual dysfunction or incontinence
Clinically proven to reduce urinary symptoms and improve quality of life in the majority of patients.

If you’ve been suffering from BPH but have been hesitant to seek treatment, PAE may offer the solution you’ve been waiting for—without the drawbacks of traditional prostate surgery.
