Meet Dr. Harrington

All of our nonsurgical treatments are overseen by Dr. Jennifer Harrington, a board-certified plastic surgeon with over 25 years of experience in the field. She is locally and nationally renowned for bringing the highest standards of medical excellence and aesthetic sensitivity, and inspires our entire medical spa team to deliver excellent results.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Emsella?

The best candidates for Emsella treatments are people in good general health who feel that they have a constant urge to urinate. In most cases, this sensation is due to weakened pelvic floor muscles. Strong pelvic floor muscles provide control over the bladder and bowel. Candidates may have developed weakened pelvic floor muscles after giving birth, going through menopause, or due to the natural aging process.

Your Emsella Treatment

Emsella treatments use electromagnetic waves to strengthen and rejuvenate the pelvic floor muscles and tissue while keeping the skin surface in the treatment area unaffected and unharmed. During your Emsella treatment, you will sit comfortably on a specially designed chair that emits electromagnetic energy, stimulating muscle contractions and restoring neuromuscular control.

We find that most patients benefit from a course of 6 total treatments over a 3 week period. Emsella treatments do not require anesthesia and our patients report feeling entirely comfortable throughout the treatment cycle.

Depending on your goals, we may suggest additional or alternative treatments. For instance, women struggling with oversized or uneven labia may be good candidates for labiaplasty. Those with noticeable fat pads over the pubic bone after weight changes or pregnancy may wish to include liposuction of the mons pubis. Many women choose to include pelvic floor tightening as part of their mommy makeover.

Emsella Results

Emsella is a nonsurgical procedure that doesn’t require any downtime. You may return to your normal routine immediately following your appointment. You may observe improvement after a single session. The results will typically continue to improve over the next few weeks.

Emsella FAQs

Emsella treatments work by stimulating your body’s pelvic floor muscles using electromagnetic waves. This controlled stimulation promotes muscle strengthening, resulting in better control over urination.

Emsella uses HIFEM® technology, electromagnetic waves that are administered via a specially designed chair that you sit on while the treatment takes place. These waves induce thousands of kegel-like pelvic floor muscle contractions in a single session to strengthen weak pelvic floor muscles, restoring neuromuscular control and improving urinary incontinence.

Typically, we recommend a total of 6 treatments over a 3 week timespan. We can tailor the treatment cycle to maximize your pelvic floor tightening as needed.

Emsella treatments are relatively quick and should only take about 30 minutes.

In clinical studies, Emsella has been found to achieve a 64% improvement in urinary incontinence on average. Over half of patients reduce their need to use hygiene pads.

No, Emsella only affects the internal musculature of the pelvic floor. If you are hoping for a tightened look to your abdomen or genital area, talk with us more about your surgical and nonsurgical cosmetic options. One option is to pair EMSCULPT NEO for the abs with Emsella for a complete “core to the floor” treatment.
