Not everyone requires urogynaecologysurgery to alleviatetheir symptoms
But if they do, the majority can be managed in a minimally invasive way and the repair can be as little as under 15 minutes with no significant downtime.
Urethral Sling
A urethral sling is a surgical procedure performed to treat stress urinary incontinence in women. It involves placing a supportive mesh-like sling beneath the urethra to provide additional support and prevent urine leakage during physical activities or exertion.
Sacrocolpopexy
Sacrocolpopexy is a surgical procedure used to treat pelvic organ prolapse. It involves attaching a mesh material to the sacrum and suspending the prolapsed organs, such as the uterus or vaginal vault, to provide support and restore their normal position within the pelvis, relieving symptoms and restoring pelvic function.
Cystocele Repair
Cystocele repair is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting a cystocele, a condition where the bladder bulges into the vagina. The procedure involves strengthening the supportive tissues, repositioning the bladder, and providing relief from symptoms such as pelvic pressure and urinary incontinence.
Rectocele Repair
Rectocele repair is a surgical procedure performed to correct a rectocele, a condition where the rectum protrudes into the vagina. The procedure involves strengthening the weakened tissues, repositioning the rectum, and relieving symptoms such as stool trapping, pelvic pressure, and discomfort during bowel movements.
Bulkamid Injection
Bulkamid is a urethral bulking agent that is used to treat stress urinary incontinence. It is a soft, water-based gel that can be used to restore the natural closing of the urethra.
Vesicovaginal Fistula Repair
Vesicovaginal fistula repair is a surgical procedure aimed at fixing an abnormal connection between the bladder and vagina. The procedure involves closing the fistula and restoring the normal anatomical separation, allowing for proper urinary and vaginal function, and resolving symptoms such as urine leakage and infection.
Cosmetic Labiaplasty
Cosmetic labiaplasty is a surgical procedure performed to alter the appearance of the labia minora or labia majora. It aims to address aesthetic concerns, such as asymmetry or elongation, and enhance the overall appearance of the external genitalia, improving self-confidence and satisfaction.
