Cost of the Rezum Procedure Abroad
Rezum therapy is a non-surgical treatment that utilizes the natural energy stored in water vapor to eliminate excess prostate tissue pressing on the urethra.
Most patients begin to experience symptom improvement within two weeks, with maximum benefits achieved within three months (though results may vary). Additionally, this therapy does not interfere with male sexual function, making it a sought-after procedure for BPH patients.
So, how much does the Rezum procedure cost abroad?
- Singapore: $10,000 – $12,000 (equivalent to IDR 163 million – IDR 196 million)
- United States: $8,000 – $15,000 (equivalent to IDR 130 million – IDR 245 million)
- Malaysia: RM 20,000 – RM 23,000 (equivalent to IDR 73 million – IDR 84 million)
It is important to note that these costs do not include expenses for transportation and accommodation while staying abroad.
