Bladder Botox
in Naples, FL
Florida Bladder Institute offers bladder botox as an effective, minimally invasive solution for women with overactive bladder (OAB). This treatment can significantly reduce urinary urgency, frequency, and leakage, especially when other methods have not provided adequate relief. Our team is dedicated to helping you regain control and improve your daily quality of life.
What Is Bladder Botox?
Bladder botox is a medical procedure that involves injecting onabotulinumtoxinA directly into the bladder muscle. This neurotoxin works by relaxing the muscle, which helps increase the bladder’s storage capacity and reduce the involuntary contractions that cause symptoms of overactive bladder. The treatment is administered in our office and provides targeted relief.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with one of our providers. We will review your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and perform an examination to confirm if bladder botox is the appropriate treatment for your specific needs.
Preparing for the Procedure
The procedure is performed in our office with minimal discomfort. To ensure you are comfortable, a local anesthetic is first introduced into the bladder to numb the lining before the injections are administered.
The Injection Process
Using a small, thin instrument called a cystoscope, your provider will view the inside of your bladder. The medication is then carefully injected into several specific sites within the bladder muscle. The entire process is typically completed in under 20 minutes.
After Your Treatment
After the injections are complete, you will be monitored briefly before you are able to return home. Our team will provide you with clear aftercare instructions and schedule a follow-up to assess your results and manage your ongoing care.
