HoLEP vs Aquablation, which is better?

I just heard a radio advertisement for Aquablation.com. It was basically saying how superior it is and touting the procedure. This may or may not be the case, every individual has different needs. Medical device companies are like the wild west and not highly regulated. It may be a great way to treat BPH, I just hate to see corporations pushing procedures for profit.

@soor YES , I hear those ads to. It is the only procedure advertised regularly. I had Holep 13 weeks ago. It has been an uneventful recovery..I considered Aquablation but decided on Holep.. One reason - Holep removes the catheter the quickest post procedure. I did not want to go home with it. The other reason - it is the most complete procedure totally removing all prostate tissue inside prostate capsule. That is the culprit that keeps growing back as long as you live! I am absolutely glad to choose Holep!
