ThermiVa Vaginal Rejuvenation

While it can be a delicate subject, vaginal issues stemming from age and childbirth are problems that many women face at some point. Vaginal rejuvenation has become increasingly popular for women who’d like to address issues like labia laxity, vaginal dryness, relaxation of vaginal muscles, urinary incontinence, and more.

Childbirth and general aging can contribute to these functional and cosmetic concerns, but sometimes they’re simply genetic. Women suffering from these problems might experience physical discomfort, in addition to facing challenges in their personal and romantic life.

Many women find relief with the ThermiVa^® procedure, which is a non-invasive method of vaginal rejuvenation that doesn’t require surgery, anesthesia, or downtime. This quick, in-office treatment only takes around 30 minutes to complete, and you can drive yourself home afterwards. It works by utilizing radiofrequency energy to apply gentle heat to the genitals, which stimulates new collagen growth and tightening.

Collagen is the building block of skin tissue and heating the skin in a specific way can reorganize the molecular network of collagen. As a result, collagen that has weakened due to age is stimulated and strengthened. This newer, stronger collagen restores regular tissue tone and function to the external genitalia and within the internal vaginal walls, revitalizing areas of atrophy.

Just like facial rejuvenation and mommy makeover procedures can turn back years of age on the face and body, non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation results in a long-lasting, revitalized appearance.

This non-surgical, non-invasive form of vaginal rejuvenation offers the following benefits:

Improves vaginal dryness

Decreases labia laxity

Helps with urinary incontinence

Improves sagging muscle tone in the vagina

Can increase clitoral sensitivity, making it easier to achieve orgasm
