What is Incontinence Surgery?
Urinary incontinence can be a challenging and often embarrassing issue affecting many women. However, with Dr. Karram’s innovative surgical approach, you can regain control over your bladder and embrace a more active and confident lifestyle. Using the latest surgical techniques and equipment, Dr. Karram performs a minimally invasive procedure that provides long-lasting results. During the procedure, a small device is inserted through a tiny incision to support the urethra and prevent urine leakage. This outpatient procedure allows you to return home the same day and recover in the comfort of your own home.
Who is a Good Candidate for Incontinence Surgery?
If you’re a woman experiencing urinary incontinence and non-surgical treatments like pelvic floor exercises or medication haven’t provided relief, you could be a good candidate for incontinence surgery. You should also be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the procedure. A consultation with Dr. Mickey Karram can help determine if incontinence surgery is the right option for you.
