The treatment
What is Emsella?
Emsella is a non-invasive pelvic floor treatment for women and men, available at PureSkin in Marylebone, London. You sit fully clothed on the Emsella chair for about 20 minutes while focused electromagnetic energy makes your pelvic floor muscles contract thousands of times. Over a course of sessions, those contractions rebuild muscle strength and support bladder control.
- Helps reduce leaks when you cough, sneeze, laugh or exercise
- Strengthens pelvic floor muscles after childbirth
- Supports bladder control through menopause and with age
- No undressing, needles or downtime
- Suits women and men, including after prostate surgery once healed

The science
How does Emsella work?
Emsella uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy to stimulate the pelvic floor. Each session triggers thousands of deep contractions, far more than you could do with Kegel exercises at home. Your muscles adapt to that workload by growing stronger, which improves the support around your bladder.

Results
What results can I expect?
Many clients notice better bladder control partway through their course, and improvements continue as the muscles strengthen. Your course length depends on your symptoms, and clients often need 12 or more sessions. Results vary from person to person, and we cannot guarantee them. We review your progress with you as you go.

Questions
Emsella FAQs
How much does Emsella cost in London?
At PureSkin, Emsella costs £99 per session, and our current special offer is £45 per session. Most clients book a course, and we plan yours at a free consultation.
How many Emsella sessions will I need?
It depends on your symptoms. Many clients need 12 or more sessions to build lasting strength. Your practitioner reviews your progress as you go and adjusts the plan with you.
Do I need to undress for Emsella?
No. You stay fully clothed and sit on the Emsella chair for about 20 minutes. Remove phones, keys and anything metal from your pockets before you sit down.
What does Emsella feel like?
You feel strong tingling and rhythmic contractions in your pelvic floor, similar to an intense pelvic floor exercise. We start at a low intensity and raise it to a level you find comfortable.
Does Emsella work?
Emsella makes your pelvic floor muscles contract thousands of times per session, and many clients report fewer leaks and better bladder control over a course. Results vary from person to person, and we cannot guarantee them. We check suitability at a free consultation.
Can men have Emsella?
Yes. Men use Emsella for urinary leakage and pelvic floor strength, including after prostate surgery once their surgeon confirms they have healed.
Can I have Emsella after having a baby?
Yes, once your doctor has cleared you after childbirth. Emsella helps new mothers rebuild pelvic floor strength without exercises you have to remember to do.
Is Emsella safe?
Emsella is non-invasive, with no needles or anaesthetic, and you can return to your day straight away. It is unsuitable if you are pregnant, have had recent surgery, or have a pacemaker, metal implants or a copper coil in the pelvic area.
Is Emsella better than Kegel exercises?
Emsella produces far more contractions in one session than you can do by hand, and it works muscles many people struggle to find on their own. Many clients use both, keeping up exercises from their physiotherapist between sessions.
What are the side effects of Emsella?
Most clients feel mild muscle soreness in the pelvic area for a day, like after exercise, and tingling during the session. There is no downtime, and you can go back to work straight after.
How long do Emsella results last?
Muscle you build over a course stays stronger for months, and many clients book maintenance sessions to keep their results. Pelvic floor muscles weaken with age and childbirth, so keeping up exercises between sessions helps results last.
Does Emsella help with bladder leaks after menopause?
Yes. Falling oestrogen weakens the pelvic floor during menopause, and many women notice leaks for the first time then. Emsella strengthens those muscles without hormones or surgery, and you can use it alongside treatment from your GP.
Where can I get Emsella in London?
PureSkin offers Emsella at 11 Welbeck Street, London W1G 9XZ, in Marylebone, a minute from Harley Street and a short walk from Bond Street station. The clinic is open Monday to Saturday, 11am to 7pm.
