Essure

What is Essure?

The Essure procedure is a birth control system completely performed in-office using local anesthesia. There is no incision, and you should be in and out of the office in less than one hour. Most patients can resume normal activities within 1 day, and many return to work the following day. Most insurance companies pay for the Essure procedure as they would a tubal ligation.
