Fotana ProlapLase®
ProlapLase®
Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) is a common occurrence for women who have undergone childbirth. Pessaries and surgical methods are available, however, a new solution is laser treatment.
“25% of women in the UK are affected with pelvic floor disorders”
Benefits of ProlapLase
- Strengthening of the vaginal tissue and improvement of prolapse
- laser treatment for pelvic organ prolapse
- incisionless, minimally invasive
- no anaesthesia needed
- walk-in/walk-out procedure
What is pelvic organ prolapse?
Other treatments to treat POP can often include surgery or the use of a pessary. Both of these methods have often had many complications and various side effects, and as such have not been a desirable option for women.
The ProLapse treatment uses the Er:YAG laser therapy. This laser stimulates collagen fibre production. This process shrinks and tightens the vaginal canal without the removal of any tissue.
There are many benefits to undergoing this procedure, such as:
- No anaesthesia required
- No recovery time – can immediately return to your usual activities
- No incisions or sutures involved
- No pre-op or post-op precautions
Ideal candidates for ProlapLase
You will be a suitable candidate for this procedure if you are wishing to treat POP and do not want to undergo surgery or use pessaries.
Prior to undergoing this procedure, you will need to attend a consultation with our Specialist. They will be able to assess whether or not this procedure is suitable for you or whether other options will be better.
What does ProlapLase involve?
Depending on the severity of the prolapse, between 3 to 5 sessions of ProlapLase® with a one-month interval are sufficient to achieve significant improvement. No special pre-op preparations or post-op precautions are necessary. You can immediately return to your normal everyday activities. Additional advantages of ProlapLase® are that the procedure is incisionless and virtually painless. Recovery is extremely quick without need for the use of analgesics or antibiotics.
