Why you might be experiencing incontinence? 

Pelvic floor muscles and nerve system control the bladder. Certain factors can impact this bladder control leading to urine incontinence. These factors include increased age, diabetes, depression, high blood pressure, neurological diseases, stroke, medication, spinal cord injury and enlarged prostate. It can lead to confusion in the nervous system which causes the leakage.

What are the treatment options available?

There is a misconception that urinary incontinence can only be treated through surgery. There are non-invasive treatment options that are available. They are safe and can bring about a drastic change in your life.

  1. Laser Treatment: It is a popular choice for targeting urine incontinence. The heat from the laser targets the tissues that are causing the leak. The heat helps to tighten and restore muscle strength. Any weakened, lax or damaged muscle can be targeted as the heat from the laser can easily penetrate deeper levels and reach the muscles. You can enjoy significant improvement without going under the knife or having a long recovery time. During the laser treatment, the thermal energy targets the tissues which generates the production of collagen and elastin, leading to tissue growth. With time, you will begin to see stronger, toned and thickened tissues.
  2. PRP Therapy: Also known as Platelet-rich plasma therapy, this treatment is become increasingly popular for targeting urinary incontinence. It makes use of the growth and healing factors present in the blood to restore healthy tissues, and strong muscles and improve blood flow. In PRP, blood is taken from the patient and spun at a high speed in a centrifuge. This separates the growth factors from other components. The serum that contains these growth and healing factors is injected back into the target site which helps to boost tissue strength elasticity and blood flow.
