Sling Procedures

Sling procedures are minimally invasive surgeries designed to treat stress urinary incontinence, often caused by weak pelvic floor muscles or damaged tissues. During the procedure, a surgeon places a supportive sling—made of synthetic material or natural tissue—under the urethra (the tube that carries urine out). This sling acts like a hammock, providing additional support so the urethra stays closed during activities like coughing or sneezing, preventing leaks. The surgery aims to restore normal bladder control with minimal discomfort and quick recovery, offering a safe and effective solution for those experiencing urinary leakage due to muscle or tissue weakness.
