LEEP is an acronym for loop electrosurgical excision procedure. A LEEP uses an electrically charged wire loop to remove abnormal cervical tissue. It is done under local anesthesia and normally on an outpatient basis in hospitals or in a doctor's office. During a LEEP: the doctor inserts a speculum into the vagina.
1 A type of forceps, called a tenaculum, may be used to hold the cervix steady for the procedure. You may feel some cramping when the tenaculum is applied. 2  You will hear humming and/or blowing sounds from the equipment.  The LEEP wire will be inserted through the speculum and passed through the abnormal tissues.
