Live Life Without Limits With Emsella
Urinary incontinence and other vaginal health issues impact thousands of women nationwide. In fact, out of the 5,000 female respondents to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) cited in this review, more than 61% had urinary incontinence, a third of whom experienced symptoms on a monthly basis. For many, the condition goes untreated for years simply because it feels too personal to bring up, or because they assume it’s just an unavoidable part of aging.
Though these problems can affect women of all ages, they tend to become worse as we get older—largely due to major events such as childbirth and menopause. If you’ve struggled with urinary issues or vaginal laxity, Emsella in San Antonio at Marcos Medical Aesthetics & Wellness can provide a solution that restores your function and confidence!

How Emsella in San Antonio works
- After a consultation with your provider, we’ll prepare the Emsella device for treatment.
- Many patients love Emsella for its ability to tone the bladder and pelvic floor muscles using High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy —without any invasive procedures. In fact, you won’t even need to remove your clothes! The Emsella device provides a level of stimulation equivalent to more than 12,000 kegel exercises.
How Can I Know if Emsella Is Right for Me?
Emsella is typically a strong fit for women who are experiencing urinary leakage, reduced bladder control, vaginal laxity or diminished sexual sensation and who want a nonsurgical solution for these issues that doesn’t come with lengthy recovery time.
More specifically, you may be a good candidate if you:
- Experience stress urinary incontinence, meaning leakage triggered by physical activity, sneezing, coughing or laughing
- Struggle with urgency incontinence, where the urge to urinate arrives suddenly and is difficult to control
- Have noticed changes in vaginal tone or sexual satisfaction following childbirth, hormonal shifts or the natural aging process
- Are in generally good health and are not currently pregnant
Women who have recently given birth, are navigating perimenopause or menopause, or are simply noticing that their pelvic floor isn’t as strong and supportive as it used to be, often find that Emsella delivers exactly the level of results that they’re looking for. Even if you’ve already tried traditional pelvic floor exercises with little to no success, the HIFEM technology Emsella uses can engage the targeted muscle fibers at an intensity level that significantly surpasses what your brain can voluntarily produce.
Still, Emsella isn’t appropriate for everyone. Patients with certain implanted devices, metal IUDs or specific medical conditions may not be candidates. The best way to find out whether Emsella is right for you is to schedule a complimentary free consultation with our team at Marcos Medical Aesthetics & Wellness. We’ll review your health history and goals with you and give you an honest answer. You can also explore our pelvic floor therapy blog to learn more about what drives these concerns in the first place.
Your Personalized Emsella Treatment Experience
No two patients come to Emsella with the exact same set of concerns, which is why no two treatment plans should look exactly alike. During your initial consultation, our team will assess the severity of your symptoms, your pelvic floor health and your overall wellness history. That information shapes everything about how your treatment is approached.
The Emsella device itself comes with tunable parameters (like the intensity level, pulse pattern and session duration) that are adjusted based on your specific needs and how your body is responding. Patients just beginning treatment, for example, typically start at a moderate intensity that allows the pelvic floor muscles to adapt. As your treatment series progresses and your muscle tone improves, those parameters are often advanced to continue challenging the tissue and driving further improvement.
After they’ve finished their initial series, many patients return for maintenance sessions to keep results from diminishing over time. For many, the 6 to 12 month mark is a sweet spot for maintenance scheduling. Your provider will recommend a maintenance schedule based on how well your results are holding and what your goals look like going forward.
Paired Treatments to Improve Your Results
Emsella is a powerful standalone treatment, but for women who want a more comprehensive approach to pelvic health and sexual wellness, it often pairs well with other services offered at Marcos Medical Aesthetics & Wellness. Each of the following treatments targets a different aspect of vaginal and sexual health, and combining them can produce results that go beyond what any single treatment achieves on its own.
Juliet Vaginal Rejuvenation
The Juliet laser is a nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation treatment that uses laser energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production in vaginal tissue. While Emsella targets the pelvic floor muscles responsible for bladder control and structural support, Juliet addresses the tissue itself, improving aspects like tone, sensitivity and overall vaginal health. Women dealing with dryness, laxity or discomfort related to hormonal changes or childbirth often see and feel major improvements when these two treatments are combined. Learn more about what the Juliet laser can do for feminine wellness in our blog.
O-Shot
The O-Shot uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) drawn from your own blood and injected into targeted areas of the vaginal tissue to stimulate regeneration, improve sensitivity and address stress urinary incontinence. Because both Emsella and the O-Shot address urinary leakage from different angles (one through muscle strengthening, the other through tissue regeneration), they can work well in tandem for women whose incontinence has both a structural and a tissue-related component. Many women also report that the O-Shot enhances sexual sensation and the frequency and intensity of orgasms.
Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women
Hormonal imbalance is often the underlying driver of the symptoms that lead women to turn to Emsella as a solution in the first place. Declining estrogen levels, as are common during perimenopause and menopause, contribute to pelvic floor weakening, vaginal dryness, reduced libido and changes in tissue integrity. Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) at Marcos Medical works to restore those depleted hormones, which can support and sustain the results you’re achieving with Emsella and other vaginal wellness treatments. Addressing the root hormonal cause while simultaneously treating the symptoms is one of the most effective strategies available.

Frequently Asked Questions About Emsella in San Antonio
Emsella results will vary, but most patients can expect results that last up to 1 year. We recommend visiting Marcos Medical Aesthetics & Wellness for follow-up treatments as the results start to wear off.
Most patients report no discomfort during Emsella treatment. The sensation can be best described as a mild sensation in the tingling area.
Patients can resume all activities as normal right after their Emsella treatment in San Antonio.
Emsella addresses both. While it’s widely recognized for treating urinary incontinence and stress leakage, the same pelvic floor strengthening that improves bladder control can also improve certain causes of sexual dysfunction, like vaginal tone and sensation.
Kegel exercises can help, but their effectiveness depends entirely on whether you’re correctly engaging the right muscles. For many women, it’s not an intuitive exercise, and it’s often difficult to gauge whether you are doing it correctly. Emsella bypasses that challenge altogether by stimulating thousands of muscle contractions in minutes, producing dramatic and much more consistent results.
Yes, and postpartum pelvic floor issues are actually one of the most common reasons women turn to Emsella. Childbirth places significant stress on the pelvic floor, and symptoms like leakage, reduced bladder control and vaginal laxity can persist long after delivery. Emsella is a noninvasive way to rehab those muscles without surgery or recovery time.
