Why the vaginal laser is the healthy choice

Laser therapy is used to treat LBL (light bladder leakage), vaginal elasticity and vaginal prolapse.

There are many other potentially harmful treatment options for these conditions although none are as beneficial as the pelvic laser procedure.

When it comes to LBL, many women choose to ‘manage’ the problem instead of treating the source. For this reason they use pads which are designed for lack of bladder control. LBL can also be treated with medication, which in the long term can cause side effects which could potentially harm your health. There is also the added inconvenience of having to wear pads every day, take medication constantly or even insert an incontinence ring regularly. It is no wonder that women are opting for laser treatment to improve their LBL, which is a discreet procedure that requires virtually no down time.

LBL is a common condition in women ages 40+

Although LBL can occur at any age (even as a teenager) the condition is most common in women aged over 40. This is the time when many women have had more than one child and when ageing begins, which both contribute to the function of the pelvic floor muscles and bladder control. Pregnancy itself (not just natural birth) can increase pressure on organs such as the bladder, which can continue after birth. Contractions also put pressure on the muscles and can result in elasticity and lack of strength.

How can laser therapy help?

Laser treatment for LBL (IncontiLase™) can be both used to correct some forms of LBL as well as vaginal elasticity. It works by utilising Er:YAG non-ablative laser technology to tighten the vaginal walls (the mucosa tissue) and improve collagen production which improves tissue elasticity and support for the bladder. For the purpose of vaginal elasticity the procedure is often called vaginal rejuvenation.
