Does the Rafaelo procedure work for everyone?

At Welbeck, our consultants use this treatment to target grades 1 to 3 internal haemorrhoids — the types that cause discomfort, bleeding, or prolapse, but are not large external piles. We find that, in practice, 9 out of 10 people are satisfied with the outcome of the procedure. 1 in 10 feel that their symptoms have not improved sufficiently afterwards. In these cases, the Rafaelo procedure can be repeated, or an alternative treatment may be required. Your consultant will advise you on this when you attend for a follow-up consultation.
