1. PUBLISHED IN HIGH-IMPACT PEER-REVIEWED LASER MEDICINE JOURNAL

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine is the official journal of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery (ASMLS) – it publishes the highest quality research and clinical manuscripts in the use of lasers in medicine and biology.

2. LARGE GROUP OF TREATED PATIENTS

The prospective trial included 175 patients, who received 2-3 sessions of IncontiLase® treatment and were followed up to 12 months post-treatment. The study assessments included ICIQ questionnaire and ISI incontinence severity index determination, patient satisfaction questionnaire and VAS pain scale.

3. EXCELLENT RESULTS

One year after the IncontiLase® treatment, 62% of patients were free of symptoms of urinary incontinence. Results were even better in patients with pure stress urinary incontinence – 77% of these patients were dry 1 year after treatment.

4. INCONTILASE IS A HIGHLY EFFICIENT AND SAFE METHOD FOR PATIENTS SUFFERING FROM STRESS URINARY INCONTINENCE

Patients with mixed urinary incontinence also get relief in stress symptoms, so it could be used in conjunction with overactive bladder therapy.
