URINARY INCONTINENCE TREATMENT FOR PATIENTS FROM ATHENS
Advanced, Gentle and Effective Women’s Health Care in Istanbul
Rejuvenation and Confidence with Dr. Sezgin Dursun.
Urinary incontinence — the involuntary leakage of urine — is a condition that affects millions of women around the world, including many in Athens. It can develop after childbirth, during menopause, or as a result of aging and hormonal changes. While common, urinary incontinence is not something you must live with. Thanks to advanced, non-surgical treatments available today, women can safely and effectively regain full bladder control and confidence.
At our Istanbul clinic, easily accessible from Athens, Dr. Sezgin Dursun provides world-class medical care and modern therapies for urinary incontinence. With a compassionate, patient-centered approach and the use of cutting-edge technology, he helps women restore comfort, function, and self-esteem — all in a safe, private, and welcoming environment.
Our clinic regularly welcomes international patients from Greece and other European countries, offering discreet, professional, and English-speaking services tailored to your needs.
TYPES OF URINARY INCONTINENCE
-
Stress Incontinence – Leakage during coughing, sneezing, or physical activities caused by weakened pelvic floor muscles.
-
Urge Incontinence – A sudden and uncontrollable urge to urinate, often due to an overactive bladder.
-
Mixed Incontinence – A combination of stress and urge symptoms, common in women over 40.
-
Overflow Incontinence – Continuous leakage due to incomplete bladder emptying.
-
Functional Incontinence – Difficulty reaching the toilet in time due to physical or neurological conditions.
Identifying your specific type of urinary incontinence is crucial to designing the most effective and personalized treatment plan.
COMMON CAUSES
Urinary incontinence can be triggered by a range of factors — pregnancy, vaginal delivery, menopause, obesity, chronic coughing, or pelvic surgery.
In postmenopausal women, a decline in estrogen can weaken the tissues that support the bladder and urethra. Lifestyle factors such as caffeine, alcohol, and smoking may also exacerbate symptoms.
Understanding these causes helps us tailor treatment to the individual, ensuring that every patient receives the most effective and lasting solution.
DIAGNOSIS AND EVALUATION
At our Istanbul clinic, diagnosis begins with a private consultation with Dr. Sezgin Dursun. During this appointment, he carefully reviews your symptoms, lifestyle, and medical history.
Advanced diagnostic methods may include urinalysis, bladder diaries, ultrasound imaging, and pelvic floor strength testing.
Every examination is performed in a calm, comfortable, and respectful environment. After identifying the cause and type of incontinence, a customized treatment plan is created to meet your needs and preferences.
MODERN TREATMENT OPTIONS
Our clinic specializes in non-surgical and minimally invasive treatments for urinary incontinence, combining modern technology with individualized care.
1. Lifestyle and Behavioral Therapy
Simple lifestyle adjustments can significantly improve bladder control:
-
Performing regular pelvic floor (Kegel) exercises
-
Bladder training and timed voiding
-
Maintaining a healthy body weight
-
Reducing caffeine and alcohol intake
These initial steps can help manage mild to moderate cases and are often part of an integrated treatment plan.
2. Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation
Pelvic floor rehabilitation strengthens the muscles supporting the bladder and urethra through guided exercises and biofeedback. This non-invasive method restores natural muscle function and improves long-term control, particularly for women after childbirth or during menopause.
3. Medication
Certain medications can reduce bladder overactivity and improve control. Antimuscarinic agents and beta-3 agonists are commonly prescribed, while local estrogen therapy can rejuvenate tissues in postmenopausal patients.
4. Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Therapy
Laser vaginal rejuvenation is a modern, painless, and highly effective non-surgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence.
The laser stimulates collagen production in the vaginal tissues, tightening and strengthening the structures that support the bladder and urethra.
Each session lasts about 15–20 minutes, requires no anesthesia, and allows patients to return to daily life immediately.
In addition to treating incontinence, laser therapy improves vaginal elasticity, comfort, and lubrication — enhancing both medical and intimate well-being.
5. Minimally Invasive Surgery
In advanced cases, minimally invasive surgical options provide long-term relief. These include:
-
Mid-urethral sling (TVT/TOT) procedures to support the urethra
-
Urethral bulking injections to enhance closure pressure
-
Colposuspension surgery to reposition the bladder neck
These procedures are short, safe, and performed under local or light anesthesia, offering rapid recovery and durable results.
