Before 2014 — Laser Treatment Didn't Exist in Egypt
This is no exaggeration — it is a documented fact. Before 2014, traditional surgery was the only option for treating anorectal diseases in Egypt. Patients had to endure a painful recovery period that could stretch for months, and severe post-operative pain was an expected price to pay.
Then came Dr. Mohamed Magdy El-Najjar with a completely different approach.
First: The Full Story — A Man, a Technology, and a Global Partnership
In collaboration with Biolitec Germany — the world leader in medical laser technology — Dr. El-Najjar introduced laser technology for treating anorectal diseases to Egypt for the first time. This landmark partnership transformed Egypt, and Hemocure specifically, into a regional hub for advanced medical laser procedures.
🏆 Dr. El-Najjar’s Laser Technology Milestones:
-
2014: The first to introduce laser treatment for anorectal diseases in Egypt in partnership with Germany's Biolitec.
-
2019: Honored by Biolitec as a global reference authority in colorectal laser surgery.
-
82+ International Training Workshops: Trained surgeons from over 20 countries on how to utilize medical lasers.
-
Head of the Training Committee at ISOLP: The International Society of Laser Proctology.
-
Recipient of the State Award for Excellence in Medicine (2018).
Second: The Evolution of Laser at Hemocure — From 1470nm to 1940nm
Laser technology is not static; it is constantly evolving, and Hemocure has always been at the forefront of this evolution.
| Comparison Feature | First Generation (1470 nm) | Latest Generation (Leonardo Plus 1940 nm) |
| Technology | First-generation medical laser for hemorrhoid treatment. | The latest global generation in advanced proctology laser — exclusively available at Hemocure. |
| Thermal Effect | Caused a noticeable thermal effect on surrounding healthy tissues. | Near-zero thermal effect (the body absorbs this specific wavelength with much higher precision). |
| Pain Level | Better recovery than traditional surgery, but post-operative pain was still present. | Post-operative pain is virtually non-existent — an immediate, noticeable difference for the patient. |
| Targeting Precision | Good tissue targeting. | Ultra-high precision in targeting diseased tissues without affecting healthy surrounding areas. |
| Recovery | Required a few days of rest. | Patients can walk immediately after the procedure and return to normal life within 2 to 3 days. |
💡 The Bottom Line: Hemocure is miles ahead — from being the first to introduce laser to Egypt in 2014, to utilizing the world's latest 1940nm technology today. Competitors are still trying to catch up.
Third: Laser Technologies Available at Hemocure — Beyond Just LHP
Hemocure does not apply a one-size-fits-all approach. We customize the laser technique to perfectly match each patient's specific condition:
-
LHP (Laser Hemorrhoid Photocoagulation): Designed for 2nd and 3rd-degree hemorrhoids. Each hemorrhoidal node is precisely targeted with a calculated laser dose. No cutting, no stitches, and done in just 5–10 minutes.
-
FiLaC (Fistula-tract Laser Closure): For anal fistulas. The laser seals the fistula tract from the inside out without cutting any sphincter muscles.
-
SiLaC (Sinus Laser Closure): A specialized technique to close pilonidal sinuses (sacral cysts), even in complex, branching cases.
-
Laser Anal Fissure Treatment with Sphincter Elongation: The laser treats the fissure and removes skin tags, combined with internal anal sphincter elongation without cutting — eliminating the chronic spasm that acts as the root cause of the condition.
Fourth: THD Doppler — Treating Hemorrhoids Without Laser or Surgery
The THD Doppler technique is complementary to laser therapy, not a replacement. It relies on ultrasound waves to precisely locate the main arteries supplying blood to the hemorrhoids and ligate them. As a result, the hemorrhoids shrink and naturally return to their normal anatomical position. This is the ideal option for 1st and 2nd-degree hemorrhoids without any surgical intervention whatsoever.
Fifth: What Happens When You Visit Hemocure for Laser Hemorrhoid Treatment?
The Patient’s Journey at Hemocure — Step-by-Step:
-
Step 1: A comprehensive examination using the advanced Proctostation device to accurately determine the degree of hemorrhoids and case characteristics.
-
Step 2: A full explanation is provided to the patient regarding the appropriate technique, the clinical reasoning, procedure duration, and expected recovery phase.
-
Step 3: Administering a Saddle Block anesthesia (a light, localized spinal block). The patient remains awake, conscious, and entirely pain-free.
-
Step 4: The procedure takes only 5–10 minutes using the LHP technique via the Leonardo Plus 1940nm device.
-
Step 5: Discharge from the clinic/hospital after just two hours, allowing an immediate return to daily routines.
Sixth: Laser at Hemocure vs. Traditional Surgery
-
Procedure Duration: 5–10 minutes / 30 minutes to an hour for traditional surgery.
-
Anesthesia: Light, localized saddle block / General or full spinal anesthesia.
-
Incisions/Wounds: No cuts, no stitches, no packing / Painful surgical wounds and stitches.
-
Pain Level: Virtually non-existent / Severe pain that can last for weeks.
-
Hospital Stay: Discharge after 2 hours / Overnight stay of one or more days.
-
Return to Work: Immediately / One week or more of strict bed rest.
-
Follow-ups: Free lifetime follow-ups / Variable and recurring consultation fees.

Seventh: Frequently Asked Questions by Patients
Is laser treatment always the best option?
Laser is the ideal choice for 2nd and 3rd-degree hemorrhoids. 1st-degree hemorrhoids can often be managed medically or via THD. Advanced 4th-degree hemorrhoids may still require conventional surgery. Only a specialized physician can determine the most effective approach for your case.
What is the difference between the 1470nm and 1940nm devices?
The 1940nm wavelength exerts significantly less thermal impact on surrounding tissues. This directly translates to much less post-operative pain and unmatched surgical precision. Hemocure utilizes this latest global generation.
Is Biolitec the best manufacturer of proctology laser devices?
Yes, Germany's Biolitec is the undisputed global benchmark for medical laser technologies in coloproctology, and Hemocure has proudly been its exclusive partner in Egypt since 2014.
