What does vaginal rejuvenation do?
In broad terms, nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation aims to reduce or reverse some types of vaginal damage caused by aging, pregnancy, childbirth (vaginal delivery), weight fluctuation, hormone changes, menopause, and other life events. Some of the most frequent concerns that lead women to consider vaginal rejuvenation treatments in Orange County include:
- Loose vagina
- Vaginal laxity
- Mild vaginal atrophy
- Stretched out vagina
- Stretched out labia
- Loose labia
- Pain with intercourse
- Vaginal dryness
- Lack of sensitivity
- Low libido due to unsatisfactory sexual experience
- Stress urinary incontinence
- Weak pelvic floor muscles
With ThermiVa nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation, virtually all of these problems can be addressed without the need for incisions, anesthesia, or downtime.
What is ThermiVa?
ThermiVa is a completely nonsurgical rejuvenation treatment designed to improve multiple aspects of a patient’s vaginal and sexual function with the use of advanced radiofrequency energy for collagen production. The treatment itself involves a handheld tool, which delivers targeted RF energy to the external and internal vaginal tissues. This process, which is also used for body and facial skin tightening, activates the body’s natural production of new, healthy collagen proteins to repair vaginal structures. By tightening the skin, strengthening the muscles, and more, ThermiVa can enhance both the form and function of the vagina for a more pleasurable sexual experience, improved urinary continence, and better vaginal health overall.
