About Urinary Incontinence Treatment
At BioWell Therapeutics, our compassionate team knows the difficulty and distress you may encounter when dealing with urinary incontinence. Also known as bladder leakage, the issue can occur when physical stress develops in the bladder and urinary sphincter and may happen when you cough, sneeze, exercise, or laugh. This involuntary condition is often caused by natural shifts attributed to pregnancy, giving birth, and menopause. Skilled physician Dr. Daniel Skinner uses the advanced Alma FemiLift laser platform to perform urinary incontinence treatment. This minimally invasive procedure works to increase your body's own production of collagen and elastin, which can improve your urethral sphincters and reduce leakage. Get in touch with our team in Huntsville, AL to find out more and book an appointment with Dr. Skinner.
WHAT CAUSES URINARY INCONTINENCE?
All of us have specific muscles and nerves in our bodies that aid our bladder in its proficiency to retain urine. In the event that these specific muscles and nerves incur too much pressure, it may dramatically affect our capability to hold in urine. Women are especially at risk for this condition since there are a number of unique incidents that can specifically lead to the condition, such as menopause, childbirth, and pregnancy. There are several categories of urinary incontinence, such as:
- Stress
- Overflow
- Urge
- Overactive
- Transient
- Functional
Urinary incontinence FAQs
How is urinary incontinence diagnosed?
A cough, sneeze, or laugh may cause an embarrassing leak during daily activities. When you visit BioWell Therapeutics, our team may ask about symptoms and medical history, including whether your issues have been caused by pregnancy or menopause. We may also perform a physical exam to diagnose your condition.
How is urinary incontinence treated?
Some people turn to panty liners or incontinence pads to absorb leaks. When these solutions aren't enough to restore comfort and confidence, we may recommend cutting-edge laser treatment. Our procedures in Huntsville, AL, are safer and effective than other methods and require very little downtime.
How do I prepare for laser treatment?
There is no special preparation needed for laser treatment. Please inform our team if you are pregnant or have a medical condition that may interfere with recovery. Women with an active infection should delay treatment until it has been successfully treated.
