Treatment Comparison

The CRH-O’Regan Disposable Hemorrhoid Banding System is appropriate for an estimated 90% of hemorrhoid patients.  Only the most severe cases require surgery (hemorroidectomy), which is just one more reason not to delay treatment. If you wait too long—and your hemorrhoids grow too large—your non-surgical options decrease.

The chief complaint about conventional rubber banding—which demonstrates superior long-term efficacy over other non-surgical methods—has been pain in 4-29% of cases.  In contrast, only 0.2% of patients treated with our advanced technique experience post-procedure pain.  Our method is also faster, more accurate and has virtually no downtime. 

Over the years, a number of new treatments have been devised for hemorrhoids, but none has outperformed the CRH-O’Regan System.  Among them are infrared photocoagulation, or the use of lasers to burn the hemorrhoid tissue, and stapled hemorroidectomy, a surgical variation that uses a circular stapler device to lift and remove the hemorrhoid.
