What Is IncontiLase?

IncontiLase is a patented, non-invasive laser therapy developed by Fotona for treating mild to moderate stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. It uses an Er:YAG laser with Fotona's proprietary SMOOTH pulsing technology to gently heat the vaginal mucosa, stimulating new collagen production and tissue tightening.

The result: stronger support for the urethra and bladder, which reduces or eliminates involuntary urine leakage during activities like coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercise.

Unlike surgical interventions such as sling procedures or pelvic floor reconstruction, IncontiLase requires no incisions, no anesthesia, and no recovery time. Most patients complete the treatment in under 20 minutes and return to their daily routine immediately.

The Science Behind IncontiLase

IncontiLase uses a 2940 nm Er:YAG laser in Fotona's non-ablative SMOOTH mode. This delivers controlled thermal energy to the vaginal wall tissue without cutting or damaging the surface. The process triggers three key physiological responses:

1. Collagen Remodeling

The laser energy heats collagen fibers in the vaginal mucosa to approximately 60 degrees Celsius. This causes existing collagen to contract and tighten, while triggering the body's natural wound-healing response to produce new, stronger collagen over the following weeks.

2. Tissue Tightening

The treatment focuses on the anterior vaginal wall and the area surrounding the urethra. As collagen rebuilds, the vaginal tissue firms and thickens, providing improved structural support to the bladder and urethra.

3. Improved Urethral Support

With stronger connective tissue supporting the urethra, the involuntary opening that causes stress urinary incontinence is reduced or eliminated. The endopelvic fascia, a collagen-rich tissue layer, tightens to create a more stable foundation.

Clinically Proven

Peer-reviewed clinical studies show 94% improvement rate. 68% of patients are completely symptom-free at 120 days.

Quick Treatment

Each session takes just 15 to 20 minutes. Most patients need only 2 to 3 sessions for optimal results.

Comfortable Procedure

Patients describe the sensation as mild warmth. No pain medication or numbing agents needed.

Long-Lasting Results

Who Should Consider IncontiLase

IncontiLase is designed for women experiencing stress urinary incontinence, the involuntary leakage of urine during physical activities that put pressure on the bladder. You may be a good candidate if you:

IncontiLase is not recommended for women who are pregnant, have active vaginal infections, or are taking photosensitizing medications. A consultation will determine if this treatment is right for your specific situation.

What to Expect During IncontiLase Treatment

Before Your Treatment

Your journey begins with a private consultation where we assess your symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals. No special preparation is needed before the procedure.

During the Procedure

The treatment is performed in our office. A specially designed, smooth handpiece delivers laser energy to the vaginal wall. The procedure takes 15 to 20 minutes. Most patients report feeling only a gentle warming sensation throughout the treatment.

After Treatment

You can leave the office and resume all normal activities immediately. There are no post-treatment restrictions. Most patients begin noticing improvement within a few weeks as collagen remodeling progresses. Full results develop over 2 to 3 months.

Treatment Schedule

For optimal results, we typically recommend 2 to 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Your personalized treatment plan will be determined during your consultation.
