Vaginal rejuvenation, specifically ThermiVA, is a non-surgical and non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to improve the appearance and function of the vaginal area. It is designed to address various concerns related to vaginal laxity, dryness, and mild urinary incontinence.
Key points about ThermiVA:
1. Procedure: ThermiVA uses a specialized handheld device that delivers controlled RF energy to the vaginal tissues. The RF energy gently heats the tissue, stimulating collagen production and promoting tissue tightening and rejuvenation.
2. Vaginal Laxity: ThermiVA is particularly effective in addressing vaginal laxity, which may occur after childbirth or with age. The treatment helps to tighten and tone the vaginal walls, resulting in improved vaginal tightness and sensation.
3. Vaginal Dryness: ThermiVA can also help improve vaginal moisture and reduce vaginal dryness, which is common during menopause or hormonal changes. The increased collagen production can enhance the vaginal lining's moisture retention.
4. Mild Urinary Incontinence: For women experiencing mild stress urinary incontinence, ThermiVA can provide some improvement by strengthening the vaginal muscles and supporting the urethra.
5. Non-Surgical and Comfortable: ThermiVA is a non-surgical procedure performed in an outpatient setting. It is generally well-tolerated, and patients often describe the treatment as comfortable and painless.
6. No Downtime: Since ThermiVA is non-invasive, there is typically no downtime associated with the procedure. Patients can resume their regular activities immediately after treatment.
7. Treatment Schedule: The number of ThermiVA sessions required can vary depending on individual needs and treatment goals. Some patients may achieve their desired results after one session, while others may benefit from a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart.
8. Safety: ThermiVA is considered safe when performed by a qualified and experienced provider. The procedure has minimal risks and side effects, such as mild redness or swelling, which usually subside quickly.
It's essential for individuals considering ThermiVA or any vaginal rejuvenation procedure to have a consultation with a qualified gynecologist or a healthcare professional experienced in performing these treatments. The provider will assess the patient's specific concerns and medical history to determine if ThermiVA is the right treatment option for them. They will also explain the potential benefits, limitations, and expected outcomes of the procedure and provide pre- and post-treatment instructions for optimal results.
