Incontinence Treatments
Non-invasive pelvic floor rehabilitation and urinary incontinence management
Urinary incontinence — encompassing stress, urge and mixed subtypes — is a prevalent condition affecting millions of adults in the UK. At Berkshire Aesthetics, we offer clinically assessed, non-invasive electromagnetic pelvic floor stimulation as part of a structured management pathway, providing an effective alternative to surgical intervention. Treatment suitability and sequencing are confirmed during a doctor-led consultation after clinical assessment.
Aetiology & Contributing Factors
Most skin and aesthetic concerns are multifactorial. Clinical assessment helps identify which contributing factors are most relevant in your case before treatment is selected.
- Weakened pelvic floor muscles, often due to pregnancy and childbirth
- Hormonal changes during menopause leading to tissue thinning
- Age-related muscle weakening
- Chronic coughing, heavy lifting or high-impact exercise placing strain on the pelvic floor
- Prostate surgery or treatment in men
- Obesity increasing pressure on the pelvic floor
- Neurological conditions affecting bladder control
Clinical Presentation
Presentation varies by skin type, severity and duration. These are common clinical signs we assess during consultation.
- Leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, laughing or exercising (stress incontinence)
- A sudden, intense urge to urinate that is difficult to control (urge incontinence)
- Frequent urination or needing to urinate during the night
- Difficulty fully emptying the bladder
- Reduced confidence in social or physical activities due to bladder concerns
Evidence-Based Treatment Modalities
Treatment selection is individualised following clinical assessment, taking into account disease severity, Fitzpatrick skin type, medical history and patient goals. You can also review our consultation standards before booking.
EMSella treatment for incontinence
EMSella uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to stimulate thousands of pelvic floor muscle contractions per session — far more than achievable through voluntary exercise. Patients remain fully clothed and seated during treatment. A course of sessions can significantly strengthen the pelvic floor and reduce incontinence symptoms.
Core to Floor treatment for incontinence
Core to Floor combines pelvic floor stimulation with core muscle strengthening in a single treatment session. This dual approach addresses the interconnected muscle groups that support bladder control, posture and core stability. Suitability and sequencing are confirmed during your doctor-led consultation.
Why we start with a consultation
Every treatment begins with a medical assessment. We need to understand your medical history, current health, skin condition and concerns before prescribing any procedure. This protects your safety and ensures the treatment is clinically appropriate for you.
During your consultation, your clinician will explain what the treatment can realistically achieve, any risks specific to you, and whether an alternative might be more appropriate. Consultations are carried out by our doctors or advanced aesthetic practitioners, depending on the treatment or concern being assessed.
All bookings are subject to our Booking Conditions.
