IncontiLase®: A safe and effective way to target stress related urinary incontinence
What is IncontiLase®?
IncontiLase® is a gentle laser treatment that is targeted to alleviating the uncomfortable symptoms from stress related urinary incontinence. The unintentional urine leakage occurs when someone coughs, sneezes or laughs. This leakage is due to the weakening of the vaginal muscles from the pelvic floor region and may occur after childbirth, weight gain or menopause.
How Does IncontiLase® Work?
The process begins with the non-ablative Er:YAG laser delivering thermal energy to the vaginal walls, which promotes the contraction and rejuvenation of the collagen fibers without damaging the surrounding tissues. This stimulates the body’s natural regenerative processes, leading to the tightening and firming of the vaginal tissue.
Effective IncontiLase® Treatment: Three Sessions for Best Results
Treatment Protocol
• Similarly to Intimalase®, the Laser light in a patented Fotona SMOOTH® pulsing mode slightly heats up the connective vaginal tissue and targets the production of collagen and elastin fibers in the vaginal tissues to strengthen them and to improve symptoms. Additionally, tightening of the vaginal tissues results in improved bladder control and therefore less urine leakage.
Getting Started with Incontilase®
• Minimum 3 sessions are required.
