Urinary incontinence and bladder control issues affect millions of women but are rarely discussed openly. Whether it’s the occasional leak during a workout or frequent urges that interrupt daily life, loss of bladder control can be frustrating and embarrassing. At Murrieta Health & Aesthetics, we offer a non-surgical, hormone-free solution that helps restore control, improve comfort, and reduce accidents: Femilift.
Urinary incontinence, or the loss of bladder control, is a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including age, pregnancy, and certain medical conditions. Bladder health is essential for overall well-being, and understanding the different types of urinary incontinence, such as stress incontinence, urge incontinence, and overflow incontinence, can help individuals take the first step towards managing their symptoms. A health care provider can help diagnose and treat bladder control problems, and lifestyle changes, such as maintaining a healthy weight and practicing pelvic floor exercises, can also play a crucial role in preventing urine leakage.
There are several types of incontinence, and each affects the urinary system in different ways:
While these symptoms may feel unavoidable with age or after childbirth, they often stem from weakened pelvic floor muscles, bladder irritants, or even previous surgeries involving the pelvic organs.
Incontinence can develop due to multiple conditions, including:
Your provider will review your medical history, conduct a physical exam, and may ask you to track symptoms in a bladder diary to better understand the type and frequency of urine leakage.
Diagnosing urinary incontinence typically involves a physical exam, medical history, and urine tests to rule out underlying conditions such as urinary tract infections. A bladder diary can also be helpful in tracking symptoms and identifying patterns. A health care provider may use various tools, including urodynamic testing and imaging tests, to assess bladder function and determine the type of incontinence. Accurate diagnosis is essential for developing an effective treatment plan, which may include behavioral techniques, lifestyle changes, and medical interventions such as medications or surgery.
Most standard urinary incontinence treatments include various methods to treat incontinence effectively:
While these approaches can be effective, they are often time-consuming, uncomfortable, or not ideal for women who wish to avoid hormones or invasive procedures.
Femilift is a minimally invasive laser treatment that rejuvenates internal vaginal tissue and strengthens the pelvic floor area. By stimulating collagen production and tightening the vaginal walls, Femilift provides better structural support to the bladder neck and surrounding organs.
By improving the structural support of the bladder neck, Femilift can help reduce the instances where women leak urine during physical activities.
This added support can help reduce stress urinary incontinence by improving the integrity of the pelvic floor, allowing better control over urine flow and bladder pressure.
Femilift works particularly well for women who:
Behavioral techniques, such as bladder training and pelvic floor muscle exercises, can be effective in managing urinary incontinence. Bladder training involves gradually increasing the time between trips to the bathroom to help the bladder hold more urine. Pelvic floor muscle exercises, also known as Kegel exercises, can help strengthen the muscles that control urination. These exercises can be done by contracting and releasing the pelvic muscles, and can be practiced during daily activities. Electrical nerve stimulation and biofeedback therapy may also be recommended to help individuals with urinary incontinence.
Lifestyle changes can play a significant role in managing urinary incontinence and promoting bladder health. Maintaining a healthy weight, quitting smoking, and limiting caffeine and alcohol consumption can help reduce symptoms. Avoiding bladder irritants, such as spicy or acidic foods, and practicing good bowel habits can also help prevent constipation and reduce pressure on the bladder. Additionally, individuals with urinary incontinence may benefit from wearing absorbent products, such as adult diapers or pads, to protect clothing and prevent accidents. A health care provider can provide guidance on the best lifestyle changes and treatments for individual cases of urinary incontinence.
Femilift sessions are quick and comfortable, typically lasting less than 15 minutes. There is no downtime, and many patients begin to notice improvement within a few weeks. For optimal results, we recommend three treatments spaced about four weeks apart, followed by annual maintenance.
Femilift can also be beneficial for those experiencing functional incontinence by enhancing the support of the pelvic floor muscles.
Because Femilift is performed internally with a narrow laser probe, there’s no cutting, anesthesia, or recovery period. You can return to your normal routine the same day.
Some women cannot use hormonal treatments due to a history of cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia, or side effects from vaginal estrogen cream. Others simply prefer to avoid systemic changes to hormone levels.
Women with a history of digestive and kidney diseases may also prefer non-hormonal treatments to avoid potential complications.
Femilift provides meaningful results without affecting the endocrine system, making it a safe choice for those with sensitivities or high-risk health conditions.
Bladder control problems can impact your ability to enjoy social events, exercise, or intimacy. But you don’t have to rely on pads, medications, or risky procedures to get relief.
