Urinary incontinence treatment with laser in Vienna

Femilift - Laser therapy for urinary incontinence

When can treatment with the Femilift Laser be considered?

Almost one third of all women between the ages of 30 and 60 suffer from urine leakage, a so-called stress or strain incontinence, when laughing, sneezing, coughing or doing sports.

The cause of incontinence symptoms is often the stress of childbirth, other strains, frequent infections or hormonal changes during the menopause. In advanced age, urinary incontinence is not uncommon in women.

The almost painless treatment with the Femilift Laser can significantly reduce the symptoms of strain or stress incontinence grade 1 and 2, often also referred to as bladder weakness, within a short period of time and thus improve the quality of life in the long term. Compared to surgery, the method is minimally invasive, so there is no downtime.

The treatment with laser light stimulates skin renewal and collagen formation and thus tightens the connective tissue. By activating the body’s own regeneration mechanisms, the mucous membrane is renewed, so we speak of vaginal rejuvenation, in which the entire vagina is strengthened.

This is how the stress-urinary incontinence therapy at Dermacare in Vienna works:

Dr. Cermak at Dermacare works with state-of-the-art laser technology, with the help of which complaints such as urinary incontinence can be treated on an outpatient basis, almost painlessly and sustainably.

Before the treatment, an analgesic cream is applied to the outer vagina and at the entrance to the vagina before the CO2 laser is inserted vaginally with the appropriate attachment. For treatment, the laser beam is activated, which hits the skin by rotating the handpiece, centimeter by centimeter, in a radius of 360 degrees.

The thermal power of the laser activates the production of the body’s own collagen in the connective tissue layer below the mucosa, the so-called submucosa, and the entire mucosa is stimulated to renew itself. In the process, the connective tissue is tightened and blood circulation is stimulated. By strengthening the pelvic floor and the tissue around the urethra, complaints of bladder weakness or incontinence are greatly reduced after just one treatment.

The laser treatment is almost painless, lasts about 30 minutes and is performed on an outpatient basis.

According to experience, an optimal treatment result is achieved with 3 treatments, which are carried out at intervals of 4 weeks each. A refresher treatment after one year is recommended.
