Laser treatment for urinary incontinence

Your life has changed a lot. Exercising, laughing, coughing or sneezing are common activities that you perceived in a very different way. After all, now they can cause an unpleasant symptom - urine leakage. You are ashamed of your problem and are trying to solve it with urological pads. But in this way you do not eliminate the problem, but only hide its manifestations.
Stress urinary incontinence is a common syndrome that affects more than 40% of women over 40.
Previously, the most effective treatment for female urinary incontinence was surgery, but laser technology eliminated the need for women to undergo surgery.
Involuntary leakage of urine (from a few drops to a full stream) is always associated with insufficiency of the sphincter, bladder and urethra. When the pelvic floor and urogenital diaphragm are damaged, the walls of the vagina are displaced, the position of the bladder and uterus changes, which is the reason for the development of pathology.

Urinary retention is a violation of the process of urination, characterized by the inability to control it.

The causes of urinary tract dysfunction are related to the type of disease.

Stressful (involuntary, without urge) is a type of incontinence that occurs in women 40-60 years old with any physical activity (coughing, sneezing, squatting, etc.). Causes of occurrence:

prolapse of the pelvic organs;
lack of estrogen;
congenital anomalies;
trauma to the organs of the urinary system;
difficult childbirth;
transferred operations;
hard physical work.

Imperative - This type is characterized by a strong urge to urinate. Loss of urine occurs without physical exertion. The reasons:

damage to the muscular membrane of the bladder;
neurological diseases;
blockage of the urinary tract;
infectious diseases of the genitourinary system;
neoplasms of the bladder.

With the use of laser technology, the procedure for laser treatment of urinary incontinence has become possible in Ukraine. The essence of the procedure is that as a result of exposure, the anterior wall of the vagina, as well as the walls and sphincter of the bladder, contract.
Laser devices of the latest generation allow, due to controlled heat exposure, to achieve accelerated collagen recovery. As a result of laser treatment of urinary incontinence, the tissues become more elastic, firm and tightened. The procedure is comfortable and completely painless.
When carrying out the procedure using laser equipment, discomfort is usually absent. The patient feels a slight burning sensation and tingling sensation in the treatment areas. The duration of one session is 10-15 minutes. The duration of the course of treatment is determined on an individual basis. As a rule, these are 2-3 procedures with an interval of 15-30 days.
During the examination, the doctor prescribes mandatory tests (cytology (PAP test), general clinical urine analysis, morphological analysis). The gynecologist conducts a comprehensive examination to rule out contraindications.

After laser surgery, the tone of the pelvic floor increases, and the production of collagen increases. Also, the blood supply and nutrition to the pelvic organs improves. A quick result - usually two sessions are enough to eliminate mild and even moderate urgent urinary incontinence and the absence of any complications are one of the main advantages of this method. Duration of the result - (the achieved effect lasts for a year or a longer period of time - it all depends on the lifestyle and compliance with the doctor's recommendations).
In addition, there are such advantages of this treatment:
 provides complete safety;
 lack of anesthesia;
 the rehabilitation period takes no more than three days;
 accompanied by an aesthetic effect associated with active collagen production.

For the operation, a special surgical laser and other medical equipment are used.
