Finally there's an attractive alternative to traditional vasectomy that eliminates the scalpel, the scissors, the burning and significantly reduces post-procedure pain.

No-scalpel vasectomy has been a major improvement in the technique used to access and deliver the vas deferens ("vas") during vasectomy.  While it has been shown to reduce intra-operative discomfort and infection rates somewhat, it has done nothing to improve procedural success or to significantly impact on post-procedure pain.

It is the technique used to occlude (or block) the vas, that is the most significant factor in determining the success of the procedure as well as the degree of post-operative discomfort.  Some of the strategies used in traditional vasectomy include; excision, ligation, cauterization, fascial interposition, each with variations.  All these methods have different success rates. 

Now, there is a new less-invasive approach called; "Pro-Vas Occlusion".  This method greatly simplifies and standardizes vasectomy and eliminates the need to sever, remove or cauterize vas deferens tissue.  The result is a fast procedure with good outcomes resulting in significantly reduced intra-operative and post-operative discomfort and a quicker recovery.
