Women of the Calgary, AB area struggling with mild incontinence and have been diagnosed with SUI (stress urinary incontinence) may be unsure as to the services that are available to them for reducing involuntary leakage. You are not alone! In fact, approximately 25% of Canadian women will deal with incontinence at some point in their life.

What is stress urinary incontinence?

Stress urinary incontinence is a condition that can be caused due to the stretching and loosening of the vaginal canal. This occurs with aging, pregnancy, childbirth, obesity, and decreased estrogen levels during menopause. Patients with this condition experience urine leakage when they exercise, lift, laugh, sneeze, or cough. Instead of being embarrassed by this condition, women are encouraged to speak to a professional about their concerns to learn about treatment options. For some, vaginal rejuvenation may be recommended, especially for women who visit our doctors at Remington Laser Dermatology Centre.

What is vaginal rejuvenation?

Vaginal rejuvenation with the team of Remington Laser Dermatology Centre is achieved with the use of a device called the Erbium SMOOTH. This device is a laser handpiece that is inserted into the vaginal area and administers non-ablation thermal effects that stimulate the body’s collagen production to tighten and tone the entire vaginal canal. It can also be used on the outer areas of the vagina to heat and contract the tissues. The entire process takes time, with most women reaching peak results after several months of continual treatments. This is due to the time it takes for collagen to develop.

Is vaginal rejuvenation right for me?

Vaginal rejuvenation is not just for women who experience stress urinary incontinence. In fact, women who want more satisfaction and improved orgasms during sexual intercourse or want to tighten loose vaginal skin may also benefit from treatments with the Erbium SMOOTH device. We encourage women to ask about vaginal rejuvenation and speak to Drs. Todd and Kent Remington about the desired results they would like to achieve.

While many patients use proper skincare products every day, they may notice that their skin is still dull and discolored. Certain conditions, such as acne and rosacea, can impact the skin’s texture and tone, as well as its overall health. This is when adult patients might start considering the benefits of laser skin resurfacing treatments available at Remington Laser Dermatology Centre. Our professionals find that these treatments can address various skin concerns with just one service.

How does laser skin resurfacing work?

With special laser lights administered deep into the skin, patients will experience remodeling of their collagen and elastin. The stimulation of collagen production in the skin allows the skin to look youthful and fresh, while minimizing the effects of aging, including the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

What lasers are available at Remington Laser Dermatology Centre?

Drs. Todd and Kent Remington are pleased to offer two laser devices for laser skin resurfacing, including:

  • Ultrapulse Co2 Deep FX Laser
  • SP Dynamic Erbium Fotona Laser

Which laser is right for me?

During a consultation appointment, our providers will evaluate patients to decide which laser device is best suited to a patient’s skincare goals. Both of these fractional lasers provide desirable results and can be used on many skin types thanks to their adjustable, gentle laser administration.

How many treatments do I need?

The number of treatments needed will vary depending on the type of laser device used, the severity of the patient’s condition, and the strength at which the laser light is delivered. Some patients prefer less, though more aggressive, treatments which may require social downtime to get the desired results faster, while others would prefer more treatment sessions but less noticeable issues between appointments. We can evaluate a patient and speak to him or her about their goals and lifestyle to help them choose the treatment most appropriate for them.
