UCLPB

UCLPB is an abbreviation for utologous conditioned liquid portion of blood. Our blood is composed of various components, red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Platelets are unique in a way that they contain growth factors that help repair and regenerate the area they are injected in. For e.g., if you have a cut and are bleeding the platelets come and form a plug that stops the bleeding, then they release growth factors that help in regeneration and repair of the cut.

The UCLPB treatments we provide are:

O-Shot®
G-Shot®

Labial Filler/Puff

If you want to change the appearance of the outside of the vagina or also known as the Vulva labial filler is a good treatment. It is commonly known as the Vulva Puff.

Most women at or around menopause lose volume in the outer areas of the vagina. This is because as we get mature, we loose deep fat and also loose fat under the vulva. This makes the inner lips of the vulva more prominent giving it a saggy look or a protruding look on wearing a swimming costume. Filling the outer part of vagina also called as the labia increases the volume and replenishes the youthful look of the labia.

Women ask for this treatment for various reasons, the common ones are where the clitoris protrudes and appears prominent on the swimming costume because of loss of labial fat, prominence of the clitoris and the skin on the clitoris due to loss of labial fat. Some women request treatment only to improve the appearance of the outside of the vulva.

Do You Have Any Questions?

Book now

silvery-blue-The-Womens-Health-Clinic - Women-8-LR

What is ‘G’?

Grafenberg spot or ‘G’ is an area in the vagina which is supposed to contain a conglomeration of nerves which play a role in sex.

Where is it located, can I feel it?

Unlike general misconception you cannot feel it. It is an area below the skin and is located 2 cm inside the vagina.

What is G-Shot®?

Injection of UCLPB to the ‘G’ location is called O-Shot®.

How Does it Work?

G is an erogenous zone of 1.5 to 2 cm in the vagina, upon stimulation this area enlarges and suppose to play a role in Orgasm.

Sexual function

Sexual function has 4 components, desire, arousal, lubrication and apex. Current treatments include psychotherapy or testosterone (unlicensed use) which does
not address all components of sexual function. UCLPB injections to the clitoris and to the vagina has proven to be beneficial in studies to improve all 4 components of sexual function.
UCLPB works in many different ways, studies have shown an increase in the pluripotent stem cells resulting in rejuvenation and increase in growth factors liberated from UCLPB that enhance blood supply and nerve growth. It is also said to relieve coital discomfort due to collagen remodelling and nerve growth.

Is it painful?

It is an entirely painless procedure as the injection is given in the vagina, an area that is relatively pain insensitive.

Are there any risks?

There are no risks to the UCLPB as it is from your own blood. Some patient occasionally can get flu like symptoms after UCLPB injection. However, this is very rare.

How Many do I need and How long will it work?

The recommended dose is 2 injections 4-6 weeks apart and studies show that it might last for up to a year. Most women will need maintenance on a yearly basis.

Is there any down time?

We advise avoiding baths or having sex for 48 hours mainly to prevent infection.

How will I feel after I have the procedure?

You shouldn’t feel any different after the procedure and should be able to carry on your day to day activities as normal.

O SHOT – UCLPB

Do You Have Any Questions?

Book now

What is O-Shot®?

O-Shot® is injection of UCLPB around the clitoris and the vaginal area to treat Sexual dysfunction. O-Shot® is a patented name by Dr. Charles Runnels who invented the technique. It was actually suggested to him by his patient.

What is UCLPB?

UCLPB is an abbreviation for utologous conditioned liquid portion of blood. Our blood is composed of various components, red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Platelets are unique in a way that they contain growth factors that help repair and regenerate the area they are injected in. For example, if you have a cut and are bleeding the platelets form a plug that stops the bleeding, then they release growth factors that help in regeneration and repair of the cut.

How Does it work?

Sexual function has 5 components: desire, arousal, lubrication, pain and apex. Current traditional treatments include psychosexual counselling and/or testosterone (unlicensed use) which does not address all the components of sexual function. UCLPB injection to the clitoris and to the vagina has proven to be beneficial in studies to improve all 5 components of sexual function. UCLPB works in many different ways, studies have shown an increase in the pluripotent stem cells resulting in rejuvenation and increase in growth factors liberated from UCLPB that enhance blood supply and nerve growth. It is also said to relieve coital discomfort due to collagen remodelling and nerve growth.

Is it painful?

There are only two injections involved with a very fine needle. We use numbing cream 20 mins before the procedure. It is similar to doing UCLPB for the face. It is an entirely painless procedure as the injection is given in the vagina, an area that is relatively pain insensitive.

Are there any risks?

There are no risks to the UCLPB as it is from your own blood. Occasionally one can get flu like symptoms after the UCLPB injection, however, this is very rare.

How Many do I need and how long will the effects last?

The recommended dose is 3 injections 6-8 weeks apart and studies show that it might last for up to a year. Most women will need maintenance on a yearly basis. However, the results are variable.

Is there any down time after the treatment?

Immediately after the procedure it might be slightly uncomfortable. One would be able to carry on with their day to day activities. We advise avoiding baths or having sex for 48 hours mainly to prevent infection.

What equipment do we use?

We use UCLPB tubes that provide 1.6 times concentration of platelets suspended in the liquid portion of blood. Each 10 ml of blood give 5-6 mls of UCLPB. We often concentrate the platelets to 3 mls for each tube to achieve better concentration of platelets.

Is this a cosmetic procedure?

Though the procedure is provided in many aesthetic clinics, the procedure itself is for treatment of sexual dysfunction. Hence not purely considered as a cosmetic procedure.

How do I know if it has worked?

We request you to fill up the female sexual function (FSF) questionnaire which is a validated questionnaire to evaluate sexual function. We then monitor sexual function through follow up questionnaires. We expect you to notice improvement in desire, arousal, lubrication and apex. You would also notice an increase in wetness making sex less painful.

How soon will I see the results?

We often expect improvement in symptoms even after the first injection. Maximum effect is seen after 3 injections 4-6 weeks apart.

Is this treatment suitable for all?

Yes, this treatment is suitable for all as it uses one’s own blood. Recent flu or infection makes the treatments less effective and we would advise patients to refrain from having these treatments for few weeks after infections.

LABIAL PUFF – LABIAL FILLER

Do You Have Any Questions?

Book now

Labial Puff: Do I need this treatment?

If you want to change the appearance of the outside of the vagina or also known as the Vulva when it has lost its volume, labial filler is a good treatment. It is commonly known as the labial Puff.

Why do women ask for this?

As we get mature and we lose deep fat in the labia. It is common after menopause due to lack of oestrogen.

Why have labia fillers?

Women ask for labia fillers for various reasons:
– The clitoris protrudes and appears prominent, for example in a swimming costume.
– Loss of labial fat – prominence of the clitoris and the skin on the clitoris due to loss of labial fat.
– Some women request treatment only to improve the appearance of the outside of the vulva.

How does the treatment work?

We use a filler that is licenced for use in the external genitalia. However, any filler that creates volume can be used. The filler is injected into the labia to create a half moon shape on either side.

Is the treatment painful?

We use numbing cream for 20 mins before the treatment which reduces the pain significantly. We use local anaesthetic at the needle entry point. Once we have made a passage for the needle, we use blunt edge cannulas to perform the treatment. We also inject local anaesthetic into the labial up to 5mls on each side. What is the downtime?
Since the filler can move, we would advise you to abstain from sex for 5 days, swimming for 3 days. You can carry on with your day to day activities almost immediately. We will also give you some instructions to keep the filler in place. None of these should prevent you from getting back to work immediately after.

How much does this cost?

The cost of treatment varies with the volume loss in the labia and the amount of filler needed to fill the labial. The treatment is charged per ml of the filler used. The total cost of treatment can vary between three to five thousand pounds. Most women will need 8 to 10 ml at a minimum to create volume in the labia.

Are there any risks?

Apart from bruising there is no other risks that are involved with the procedure. Occlusion of blood vessels as they happen in the face are very rare as labia is supplied by small blood vessels that join each other.

How many treatments do I need?

We do treatments in a staged process. We often do 5-7 mls of filler on either side and reassess in 2 weeks’ time. Since we use 5mls of anaesthetic on either side, the labial volume will appear better but almost always go down once the anaesthetic fluid is absorbed.
Since we use Hyaluronic acid, the results last for 12-18 months. However, this is variable depending on the own’s own ability to breakdown hyaluronic acid. Most women will need top up of filler on a yearly basis.

When will I see the result?

You will be able to see the result immediately but it often goes down as the swelling and the anaesthetic settles. Once the filler settles in 5-7 days, the final results will be visible. You can then reassess if more volume is needed in the labia.

Can it be combined with any other procedures?

Yes, it can be combined with surgery like labiaplasty or clitoral hood reduction if necessary. We however, advice not to have surgery for 6 weeks after having labial filler to prevent migration during the procedure.
