What is urinary incontinence?

Urinary incontinence is the loss of bladder control. Some women notice leakage when they cough, laugh, sneeze, exercise, or lift something heavy. Others feel a sudden urge to urinate and may not reach the bathroom in time.

For many patients, symptoms start gradually and become more frustrating over time. Pregnancy, childbirth, aging, menopause, and changes in pelvic floor strength can all play a role.

When the muscles and tissues that support the bladder become weaker or less responsive, it can be harder to stay dry during everyday activities. The Elevate with Ogeechee Health team offers nonsurgical treatment options that improve support and bladder control.

How can treatment help urinary incontinence?

Treatment depends on the cause of your symptoms and the kind of support your tissues need. At Elevate with Ogeechee Health, nonsurgical options may include VTone™, FormaV™, and Morpheus8V™. These treatments are designed to improve pelvic muscle function, tissue support, or both:

VTone

Vtone uses intravaginal electrical muscle stimulation to create repeated pelvic floor contractions. This helps re-educate and strengthen weak muscles, which may improve control and reduce leakage.

FormaV

FormaV uses controlled radiofrequency energy to heat tissue and stimulate collagen production, which may support circulation, elasticity, and tissue tone.

Morpheus8V

Morpheus8V uses radiofrequency microneedling to remodel tissue more deeply. It may help when laxity and tissue changes are contributing to urinary incontinence symptoms.

What does urinary incontinence treatment involve?

The Elevate with Ogeechee Health team performs these nonsurgical treatments in the office. Patients describe VTone as a series of gentle muscle contractions, while FormaV usually feels warm and comfortable during treatment.

Morpheus8V may involve more sensation because it combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy. The team may discuss comfort measures beforehand.

Treatment times vary depending on the option selected, but appointments are generally straightforward. Most patients return to normal daily activities quickly, although the exact plan depends on the treatment used and your symptoms.

When should you seek help for urinary incontinence?

Urinary incontinence is common, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with it. If bladder leakage is affecting exercise, daily routines, travel, sleep, or confidence, it’s worth discussing treatment for urinary incontinence.
