Emsella for Men
Emsella is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles in men. It is primarily used for urinary incontinence and is frequently applied to support recovery after prostate procedures. Many men also report secondary improvements in sexual function and quality of life.

Emsella is frequently applied to support recovery after prostate procedures. Reduced urinary leakage after prostate surgery is among the commonly reported continence benefits.
Do men need a different number of Emsella sessions?
No. The standard protocol for men is typically six sessions, the same as the general protocol, with each session lasting approximately 28 minutes.
