Description

HET™ bipolar system for the treatment of grades I and II internal hemorrhoids1

The HET™ bipolar system is a gentle, simple, and efficient2 non-surgical treatment method for symptomatic grades I and II internal hemorrhoids.1

Its design allows treatment of all grade I and grade II internal hemorrhoids in one procedure.1 The treatment targets the area above the dentate line and its low treatment temperature minimizes collateral tissue damage.3

Hemorrhoid energy therapy, using the HET™ bipolar system, can be completed quickly with minimal pain to the patient.1,2

How is the HET™ bipolar system different than other hemorrhoid treatment options?​

Many hemorrhoid treatments, including banding and infrared coagulation, often require multiple procedures.4,5 In contrast, HET™ bipolar system allows for hemorrhoid treatment in a single therapy session.2
