Urinary incontinence can affect women’s life quality.
The treatment of urinary incontinence with genital laser is performed with a fractional CO2 laser.
Genital CO2 laser
With this technology there is a contraction of the vaginal mucosa and / or the immediate urethra. Thanks to its biostimulation effect on the mucosa and the subepithelial chorion generates new collagen with a wall of the vagina and the more contracted urethra. Additionally, the mucosa has more layers of cells and with more glycogen in its interior, that is, a mucosa healthier and renewed.
The treatment of urinary incontinence with genital laser is performed without anesthesia and without postoperative home care. Two-three sessions of genital laser or radiofrequency that last approximately 20 minutes, spaced 1 month. Depending on the patient’s need, 1 maintenance session per year can be considered.
Before undergoing treatment of urinary incontinence with genital laser, a visit with gynecological physical examination is recommended to assess the type and degree of urinary incontinence and a cervico-vaginal cytology.
