Urinary Incontinence Q & A

What causes urinary incontinence?

Urinary incontinence is urine leakage that you can’t control, and it can result from issues such as a sedentary lifestyle, medical issues, or lax vaginal tissues. The good news is that the Imber Medical team provides discreet, effective care so you can leave your worries behind.

What signs of urinary incontinence should I look out for?

You may be tempted to write off leakage without getting a urinary incontinence diagnosis, but that postpones finding a solution. Take note if you have:


Frequent urges to urinate

If you feel frequent, overwhelming urges to “go,” even if you’ve recently taken a trip to the bathroom, it can quickly interfere with your schedule and lifestyle.


Unintentional urine leakage

This problem could range from just a drop or two to a more significant amount of unintended leaking.


Stress urinary incontinence (SUI)

This type of incontinence is hard to avoid because it occurs during everyday activities like laughing, sneezing, coughing, or picking something up. Anything that increases abdominal pressure can potentially cause stress incontinence, so it’s important to seek help to avoid leakage derailing your lifestyle and goals.

What are my options to treat urinary incontinence?

Imber Medical takes pride in offering state-of-the-art equipment and technology to solve patient concerns, which extends to how they treat delicate issues and areas. After a comprehensive evaluation and discussion of your issues, the team may recommend:


Vaginal rejuvenation

As with your other tissues, your vagina is susceptible to changes with childbirth, hormonal fluctuations, and the general passage of time. As the area loses elasticity and strength, urinary incontinence is one of the expected consequences, along with vaginal dryness and sagging tissues.

To combat these uncomfortable side effects, the Imber Medical team offers vaginal rejuvenation treatments to restore the function and beauty of the vaginal area.


FemiLift

FemiLift is a targeted form of vaginal rejuvenation. This minimally invasive outpatient treatment provides quick, painless, and effective care for leaks. With fractional CO2 technology, FemiLift strengthens your pelvic floor, plumping your vaginal walls and reducing SUI symptoms.

It also rejuvenates the vaginal lining and restores the area’s natural pH levels so you experience fewer vaginal infections and more pleasurable sex.

Imber Medical works with your body to quickly and safely restore your quality of life. For more information about urinary incontinence and vaginal rejuvenation solutions, call the office or book online today.
