Learn more about the benefits and potential downsides of ThermiVa here, and find out whether this exciting treatment may be the life-changing solution you’ve been searching for.

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.

Pros and cons of ThermiVa

Before undergoing any procedure, it’s always important to familiarize yourself with the fundamentals of the treatment, including its benefits and potential side effects:

Benefits of ThermiVa

  • Nonsurgical treatment
  • No incisions
  • No anesthesia required
  • Virtually painless
  • No downtime or recovery period
  • You can have sex the same day as a ThermiVa treatment
  • Can treat a wide variety of vaginal and sexual concerns
  • Increased vaginal lubrication
  • Boosts your confidence
  • Improves your sex life
  • Can lead to a better relationship with your partner

Possible downsides of ThermiVa

  • A series of 2 – 3 treatments may be needed to achieve your result
  • ThermiVa is not considered permanent, though results can last for up to two years or longer
  • Potential side effects include swelling, redness, or itching, but these are typically very mild and resolve within 1 – 2 days, if not sooner
  • Patients with significantly long, hanging, or asymmetric labia may be better suited to vaginal rejuvenation surgery, such as labiaplasty, vs. ThermiVa

With all this said, the vast majority of patients agree that the pros of ThermiVa far outweigh the potential cons of treatment, which are few and far between.

Dr. Kelishadi is amazing!!! He made me feel so comfortable! I had Breast Augmentation  May 26th. I'm three months out and loving my results! I was very self conscious  about my chest. My breasts shrunk due to breast feeding. I didn't even want to change in front of my husband.  (he loved them no matter what lol) and now I am feeling so great about it! He said he's even noticed a boost in my confidence level. I love it! i feel good..i feel sexy. I never thought I  would actually go through with getting this done, but Dr. Kelishadi and his staff helped me with every step of the way. He was very caring and checked up on me after surgery. His staff was very nice as well. All so helpful! I highly recommend him!

Words cannot describe how grateful I am to have met the SSK team.  I initially started with the med spa team at SSK and knew that I needed to do a breast augmentation consultation there as well.  From beginning to end, every single doctor/nurse and even Valerie at the front desk, involved in my procedures reached out giving clear instructions and also daily check-ins after my breast aug surgery.   Their patient care is beyond incredible.  The team gives you all of the instructions pre and post op, and they even go as far as giving you a sweet post op bag including the cutest, softest, coziest jump suit to wear into and out of the hospital on surgery day.  I am so so pleased with the team’s attention to detail, but more importantly, they are an exceptional care team you want and need!  Thank you SSK!  -Steph

I recently had a breast revision/augmentation with a lift by Dr Kelishadi and I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon! He is known as the King of Cleavage and definitely lives up to the name. His staff is friendly, professional, and prompt to answer calls and respond to emails. It was also super nice and convenient having Dr Sherry as part of the team helping with all the medications ordered. On my pre op visit, I was given a bag with all the medications I would need for my surgery and recovery. Dr Sherry would text and make sure I didn’t have any questions which was so appreciated. After my surgery, Dr Kelishadi would call and check in to make sure I was doing well. If I had a questions or concerns, Dr Kelishadi would promptly call and answer all the questions I had. He is genuinely a great person and an amazing Surgeon that I would highly recommend.

I recently underwent a transformative experience at SSK Plastic Surgery, having a tummy tuck, muscle repair, and liposuction in the flanks and back. Being a mom to a 10 month old, I was pretty anxious about this procedure but right from my initial consultation, I was confident that I was in the hands of professionals who truly care. Now, just 3 days post-op, I caught a glimpse of my results and I’m beyond thrilled! Dr. Kalishadi’s skillful work has exceeded my expectations.On the day of the surgery, the entire team’s kindness helped alleviate any pre-surgery jitters. Dr. Kalishadi went above and beyond by personally reaching out to check on my recovery. Overall, my experience has been nothing short of amazing, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place for my procedure. I wholeheartedly recommend SSK Plastic Surgery to anyone seeking outstanding results and genuine care. Also shout out to Dr. Sherry, Valerie and Brianna who were also lovely! Thank you all so much!

I recently underwent a breast revision procedure at SSK Plastic Surgery, and I must say that my experience far exceeded my expectations.  From start to finish, the entire journey was seamless, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results.  Here’s why I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Kelishadi for anyone considering breast revision: Dr. Kelishadi is an exceptional plastic surgeon.  From the initial consultation to the post-surgery follow-ups, Dr. Kelishadi displayed remarkable expertise and a genuine care for my well-being.  He took the time to listen to and provided me with detailed explanations of the procedure.  The entire team at SSK Plastic Surgery was welcoming, friendly and professional.  They made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process, and their knowledge and expertise to my needs were remarkable.  One aspect that truly impressed me was the personalized approach they took throughout the entire journey.  I even worked with Dr. Sherrie for my hormones prior to surgery and needless to say I feel much better now.  I felt that she too was invested in my overall health.  Lastly, when it came to deciding the appropriate size for my revision, I had to place my trust in Dr. Kelishadi’s expertise and technique.  I discussed my desired goals with him, and he carefully assessed my body proportions, existing breast tissue and overall aesthetic balance.  Although I had initial apprehension about relinquishing control over to the size decision, I am thrilled to say that I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.  The size chosen by Dr. Kelishadi was absolutely perfect!  I would highly recommend SSK Plastic Surgery!
