ThermiVa | Plastic Surgery Center of Sacramento

Throughout life, women’s bodies can go through many changes. Even the vaginal area can change due to aging and childbirth. If you are self-conscious of lax vaginal skin or are uncomfortable due to dryness or urinary incontinence, ThermiVa can help. Read on to learn more about this treatment option.

What is ThermiVa?

ThermiVa is a non-invasive vaginal rejuvenation treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to address a variety of issues. This may include vaginal dryness or laxity and urinary incontinence. ThermiVa works to tighten the vaginal tissue using radiofrequency to stimulate collagen production. It can also stimulate increased blood supply, which results in a more satisfying sexual experience.

During treatment, a special “S” shaped applicator will be used to gently emit the radiofrequency energy to the internal and external vaginal tissues. There is no anesthetic needed, since the treatment is painless. Women will experience a warming sensation from the applicator, though this should not be painful. After the 30-minute treatment, there is no downtime needed, and patients can even resume sexual intercourse right away.

What are the Benefits?

ThermiVa can help to improve the tone and rightness of the labia and external tissues, as well as address a number of problems that are associated with vaginal tissue atrophy. ThermiVa can help to:

Reduce or treat stress urinary incontinence
Restore vaginal lubrication
Enhance sex for you and your partner
Alleviate any pain felt during intercourse
Restore comfort when wearing tight clothing
Boost self-confidence

Due to age, menopause, or pregnancy, women may start to experience loosening vaginal walls, dryness, and other discomforts. With ThermiVa, patients can begin to improve their love lives and build self-confidence through a simple, painless in-office procedure.

What is ThermiVa?

ThermiVa is an in-office, non-surgical procedure for labia and vaginal tightening and rejuvenation. By delivering controlled heat to the desired areas, ThermiVa works to contract lax tissue as well as encourage collagen formation which will give tissue more strength and thickness, and increase lubrication. Treatment time is around 30 minutes for each session and uses no anesthesia, incisions, or lasers, making the entire process virtually painless. The complete procedure includes three separate treatments over the course of three to six months with each treatment occurring four to six weeks apart. A yearly touch-up treatment may be recommended or desired.

After ThermiVa:

Since ThermiVa is a non-surgical procedure, patients are able to resume all regular activity, including sexual intercourse, immediately after each treatment. Although patients may experience improvements after just one treatment, the full three-treatment procedure is recommended to achieve full, lasting results. Touch ups are then required once or twice a year.

Benefits of ThermiVa:

Decrease Vaginal Laxity—ThermiVa tightens the full length of the vagina as well as the opening, making a noticeable difference for both patient and partner.

Decrease Vulvar Laxity—ThermiVa tightens external labial tissues allowing more comfort and confidence while wearing tight clothing and bikinis.

Reduce Urinary Leakage—Women who experience stress incontinence can see a reduction in symptoms without the use of mesh slings.

Reduce Vaginal Dryness—ThermiVa promotes the growth of softer, thicker skin with more moisture, making daily life and sexual activity more comfortable.

Increased Sexual Satisfaction—ThermiVa causes an increase in vaginal sensitivity and stronger muscular contractions allowing the patient to achieve orgasms more easily.

As you can see, ThermiVa can positively impact your life in many ways! To learn more about ThermiVa in the Sacramento area, contact our office today. For more information, visit our blog page
