How Do Pelvic Floor BOTOX Injections Work?
BOTOX is commonly used for aesthetic purposes. However, it also plays a vital role in managing different medical ailments, from migraines to digestive issues.
For vaginismus, this service works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that contract involuntarily. This relaxation helps alleviate pain and improve quality of life.
During the procedure, Dr. Brady will inject BOTOX into the pelvic floor. She also dilates the vagina and, if needed, performs a hymenectomy to create a larger opening in the hymen.
Benefits of BOTOX for Vaginismus
BOTOX can be life-changing for those affected by vaginismus. It provides significant relief from the painful symptoms associated with this condition. It also makes intimate moments less stressful, allows for easier tampon insertion, and increases comfort during pelvic exams.
Some of the most well-known advantages include:
- Fast Results: It takes about one week for the BOTOX to take full effect.
- Minimal Discomfort: This service is quick (approximately 20 minutes) and is performed under general anesthesia. Patients can return to daily activities shortly after.
- A High Success Rate: Clinical studies, plus our own patient outcomes, have shown impressive rates of improvement and satisfaction.
In many cases, as long as they follow the specific post-procedure dilator instructions, women also only need one round of treatment. Dr. Brady has found that when the BOTOX wears off after 3-4 months, patients can engage in painless intercourse and experience normal penetration.
