Birth control implants and birth control pills both protect against undesired pregnancy. Is the implant better? That depends on a variety of personal factors. Learn more about these two popular contraceptives.
Associates in Women’s Health (AIWH) is located in Cincinnati, Ohio and provides both medical and aesthetic services. Established in the 1960s, AIWH has four gynecologists: Dr. Ellen W. Feld, Dr. Lisa Gannori, Dr. Preeti Ghatora, and Dr. Rick Valido.
AIWH offers a range of gynecologic, obstetric and cosmetic services that include the following:
• Preventative and well women care
• Infertility counseling
• Treatment for urinary incontinence
• Laser hair removal
• Laser skin resurfacing
• Myriad myRisk™
Myriad myRisk™ is a hereditary cancer test that identifies the risk factors for eight of the most important cancers:
• Breast
• Colorectal
• Endometrial
• Gastric
• Melanoma
• Ovarian
• Pancreatic
• Prostate
The test combines an analysis of 28 genes associated with the aforementioned cancers with the patient’s personal and family history. The resultant report not only advises the patient of their susceptibility to cancer, but also ways to improve their health and reduce their risk.
ClearLift™ is a laser made by Alma Lasers used in non-ablative or non-wounding skin resurfacing. As such, it leaves the topmost layer of the skin undamaged. ClearLift™ can, therefore, be used on sensitive places.
ClearLift™ can be used at our office in Cincinnati for aesthetic reasons to correct such problems as age spots, wrinkles, fine lines, uneven pigmentation, small blood vessels, and redness. It is gentle enough that the patient will not need an anesthetic.
InTone is a device used to treat urge, stress and mixed urinary incontinence. Made by InControl Medical, it helps the patient strengthen weak pelvic floor muscles and calm an overactive detrusor muscle. The latter is the smooth muscle lining the interior wall of the bladder. InTone can also gather data about the patient during their exercise sessions, so the doctor can check their progress.
AIWH in Cincinnati uses the Harmony XL laser made by Alma Lasers for laser hair removal treatments. It emits a low-energy laser with a rapid pulse designed to cause minimal discomfort while still being effective. It doesn’t even cause the snapping rubber band sensation of other lasers. Most patients will need multiple treatments to get the desired results.
