Multiple issues can lead to incontinence. In cases of stress incontinence, weakened pelvic floor muscles cause urine to leak, particularly when you laugh, sneeze, or cough. It can also occur during exercise or weight lifting. Stress incontinence often occurs after pregnancy and childbirth due to the stretching of these muscles.
If you have urge incontinence, also called overactive bladder, you get the urge to urinate, and it comes on quickly and powerfully (you may not make it to the bathroom in time).

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses your body’s natural healing mechanisms to restore tissue functioning regardless if you suffer from stress incontinence or urge incontinence. Dr. Cory and Dr. Renee collect platelets and other growth factors from your blood and inject it to stimulate the production of stem cells, leading to tissue restoration and regeneration.
Using CO2 laser treatments, Dr. Renee and Dr. Cory can treat incontinence. These fractional lasers create microablations on your skin, stimulating your body’s natural healing response. This response leads to an increase in collagen and elastin, proteins that keep your tissue healthy and strong.
