What is Intimate Wellness and How Does BTL Emsella Fit In?

Intimate wellness procedures, sometimes referred to as vaginal rejuvenation procedures, are a series of procedures designed to enhance women’s intimate wellness. These procedures may tighten the vagina, give better orgasms, decrease symptoms of incontinence, improve vaginal lubrication and treat vaginal dryness. Emsella is a new, groundbreaking treatment that brings women’s intimate health to the next level. To understand what Emsella (the “Kegel Throne”) is and why it is so revolutionary, we’ll begin with a review of vaginal rejuvenation procedures in general. Then, we’ll dive into the benefits of the Kegel Throne itself.

Vaginal rejuvenation procedures are generally divided into surgical and nonsurgical treatments. Nonsurgical treatments can be further divided into invasive and noninvasive nonsurgical treatments. We’ll explain below.

Surgical treatments include things like labiaplasty, labia augmentation, clitoral hood reduction, and vaginoplasty. In labiaplasty, the labia minora is reduced in size either for aesthetic reasons or to decrease pain with daily activity or during sexual intercourse (dyspareunia). Labia augmentation usually takes the form of fat grafting to the labia majora for those who wish to have volumization for aesthetic purposes. Clitoral hood reduction can be performed to increase the sensitivity of the clitoris. In vaginoplasty, excess vaginal tissue is removed, and the vagina is tightened by bringing the surrounding muscles closer together. Dr. Smith limits his practice of surgical vaginal rejuvenation to aesthetic procedures such as labiaplasty.

Nonsurgical procedures can either be invasive and noninvasive. Invasive procedures refer to those that involve placing a wand or other device into the vagina to deliver an energy-based treatment. These treatments may use radiofrequency energy, laser, or HIFU (highly focused ultrasound) to deliver heat to the tissues of the vagina with the goals of decreasing dryness, improving tone, and increasing blood flow.

Noninvasive procedures do not require the insertion of any wand or device into the vagina and can be performed while you are completely clothed. How is this possible? What are examples of noninvasive vaginal rejuvenation procedures? It turns out that there is only ONE noninvasive vaginal rejuvenation procedure presently available. In fact, vaginal rejuvenation is only part of the benefit of this procedure. We are, of course, talking about Emsella.

What is BTL Emsella?

BTL Emsella is a non-invasive intimate wellness treatment that tones and tightens the muscles of the pelvic floor. While Emsella is an effective, FDA-cleared treatment for urinary incontinence, patients report that it dramatically improves their enjoyment of sexual activities. Many women that do not have issues with incontinence choose to have Emsella for its intimate benefits alone. It targets and tightens the muscles of the pelvic floor and restores neuromuscular control to the area. The system delivers HIFEM technology (high intensity focused electromagnetic energy), stimulating the pelvic muscles, triggering super-rapid muscle contractions to restore strength and building muscle fibers. The result is increased muscle strength and restored bladder control. Emsella can also be combined with Emsculpt to achieve true “core to floor” conditioning.

How many treatment sessions will I need?

The recommended course of treatment involves six sessions, scheduled once or twice per week over three to four weeks.

Will I require maintenance treatments?

Many patients choose to receive maintenance treatments as they see fit, such as once every month to maintain optimal results. The number of treatments you need will depend on the level of incontinence you are experiencing.

When will I notice the results?

Many patients notice a difference within the first week after their initial treatment with BTL Emsella. The benefits develop over the series of treatments, leading to a marked increase in bladder control. Many patients also have experienced other benefits, such as enhanced orgasms.

What should I expect during the procedure?

The procedure is incredibly simple, as easy as sitting on a chair for 30 minutes. As the chair stimulates the muscles of the pelvic floor, you will feel a tingling sensation and the muscles contracting, but it is not uncomfortable to experience. You can expect to return to your day as usual directly after treatment.

How does BTL Emsella treat incontinence?

If you suffer from incontinence, it is often the result of weakened pelvic floor muscles that fail to support the pelvic organs, affecting bladder control. While you sit comfortably on the treatment device, the HIFEM energy emitted will stimulate thousands of muscle contractions in each session. This stimulation of the muscles results in restored control over the muscle structure and bladder. It is painless, fast, and effective.

Is BTL Emsella for incontinence covered by insurance?

BTL Emsella is not currently covered by medical insurance.
