After having 2 children, I was experiencing light bladder leakage when I would cough, sneeze or run/jump. I learned of procedure will waiting at Dr Preskill's office for an unrelated appointment and was immediately intrigued so I inquired more about it. After learning about it there seemed no reason not to do it and to get back the quality of life to be able to play with my children without the irritating incontinence, to be able to do the things I enjoy doing and the secondary side benefit of better intercourse.
18 years ago, I had a 9 and 1/2 lb baby. I didn't realise how much giving birth would alter things "down there". I didn't suffer from stress incontinence then but as I aged, I started to feel a little more "drippy" for lack of a better word. My sex life was good, but intercourse was not the sole focus, as I wasn't stimulated as much as I was when I was young, I asked my OB-GYn about it and he told me that there was not much to do about it. Then I heard about Dr. Preskill and his CO2 laser. I made an appointment for a consult, and I was presently surprised to find his office warm and inviting with a super-friendly educated staff. I was very discreetly escorted to an exam room to complete paperwork. It was a very personal questionnaire that asked questions that I hadn't though about in along time. It made me really think about how healthy I am about my sexuality and my feminity. Dr. Preskill knocked on the door and introduced himself. We talked about my issues and he explained how FemiLift could help me, did a quick pelvic and asked me if what I thought. I liked him, I believed him and I scheduled the first of three procedures. I had my doctor fax my recent Pap smear over and I arrived back at the office in two days for my procedure. After being bought back to an exam too and changing into a gown, Dr. Preskill and his nurse came in , and began the procedure. They inserted a probe ( kind of like an ultrasound) and gave me the first pulse. I didn't feel a thing. The Dr. Did several shots of the laser, not painful but warm and was done in less than five minutes. I left, went to dinner and that was it. I waited more than the suggested 3 days before I had sex, but I did start to notice that "leaky" feeling was going away. When I did have intercourse, I immediately felt more sensation, as my partner said, "I can feel a difference". I waited a month and went back for my next treatment, it only got better. I can't wait for my third, I think I will feel like I have a 25 year old vagina. I couldn't be happier. When I went Updated on 21 Feb 2016: Thanks, Dr. P.
In all of the women that I have treated, there has not been a single issue of scar tissue development. The procedure actually stimulates the growth of younger, healthier tissue. Younger, healthier tissue is thicker tissue which results in a tighter vagina. A tighter vaginal canal leads to increased sensation for both partners!
FemLift is perfect for post menopausal women, as it stimulates the development of younger, healthier tissue. Younger, healthier tissue means more lubrication, greater sexual sensation and less stress incontinence due to laxity of vaginal mucosa.
There is no cutting, suturing or sedation needed for FemiLift, making it an excellent option for vaginal tightening to treat unintentional loss of urine, increase sexual pleasure and aid in some of the symptoms of menopause. The treatment is an "in office" procedure that takes about fifteen minutes and requires no downtime. In the past, the only options for vaginal tightening were surgical which meant anesthesia, recovery time and questionable results. FemiLift is an option that could help millions of women achieve their goals and continue to live their lives without interruption.
The FemiLift procedure is very safe. It is an FDA approved procedure, which basically means that the laser does what it is supposed to do, with little to no risk to the patient. The risks the procedure presents are minimal- infection, bleeding, swelling. The results are many-fold, decreased to eliminated urinalysis stress incontinence, increased lubrication and greater sexual stimulation for both partners. Some patients even report an aesthetic improvement of their labia, making vaginoplasty almost obsoleteAt our practice, we screen our patient to make sure that they are not at risk for infection. We also pre-treat our patients who have a history of the herpes virus, as any inflammation may cause an outbreak. After performing the procedure on many patients, we have not seen any side effects, other than mild spotting for a day or two. And all of our patients have reported a very high level of satisfaction with the results from FemiLift, and this is clearly demonstrated by the positive patient reviews on this website.
The FemiLift procedure works on the vaginal canal, the cervix is irrelevant. The treatment stimulates the development of younger, healthier tissue in the vaginal canal. Younger, healthier tissue will result in the thickening of the canal, creating a thicker pelvic floor. A thicker pelvic floor creates pressure on adjacent structures, such as the urethra, allowing a woman to have greater control of unintentional leakage of urine, creating greater sexual stimulation for both partners, increases lubrication and and improves vaginal aesthetics. All without surgery, downtime , pain or anesthesia.
