EMFEMME 360 in San Diego
Serving Scripps Ranch, Poway, Rancho Bernardo, Mira Mesa, and the greater San Diego area.
EMFEMME 360 is a radiofrequency treatment used in women's intimate health. Here is how it works, what a session involves, and how we decide whether it is a good fit for you.
What the treatment involves
A probe delivers radiofrequency energy uniformly around the full circumference of the treated tissue, warming it to a controlled therapeutic temperature. Smaller single-use applicators allow external treatment as well. A session takes roughly eight to ten minutes, requires no anesthesia, and involves no recovery period. A typical course is three sessions spaced about a week apart.
The mechanism is the same one behind radiofrequency treatments elsewhere on the body: controlled heating prompts fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin, and increases local circulation.
What it is cleared for
EMFEMME 360's FDA clearance is a general radiofrequency clearance: heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for selected medical conditions, such as temporary relief of pain, muscle spasms, and increase in local circulation. We describe the treatment by what it actually does, and we will walk you through what to expect before you decide anything.
How we approach it
Many patients report improvement in comfort and tissue quality after radiofrequency treatment in this area, and there is published work exploring it. It is a reasonable option to talk through.
Before we reach for any device, though, we want to understand what is actually behind your symptoms. Dryness, discomfort, and changes in sensation are often hormonal, and genitourinary syndrome of menopause responds well to established treatments. Bladder leakage has its own strong options, including Emsella, which is FDA-cleared specifically for urinary incontinence. Getting that picture first is what makes any plan work.
If EMFEMME 360 fits once we have that picture, we will explain what it involves and what to expect, so you can decide with everything in front of you.
Talk to us
Concerns in this area are common, rarely discussed, and very often treatable. A consultation is a private, unhurried conversation about what is going on and what your options are.
Frequently asked questions
What does a session involve?
Roughly eight to ten minutes, no anesthesia, no recovery period. A typical course is three sessions about a week apart.
Is it cleared for vaginal rejuvenation?
No. The clearance covers radiofrequency heating of tissue, which is how we describe it.
Will it help bladder leakage?
It is not cleared for urinary incontinence. Emsella is, so that is usually the better place to start if leaking is your main concern.
Does it hurt?
Most patients describe warmth rather than pain, and no anesthesia is needed. We screen beforehand to confirm that treatment is appropriate for you.
