Vaginal rejuvenation refers to several different procedures used to manage age- or childbirth-related problems like vaginal laxity and orgasmic dysfunction. At Sierra Nevada Wellness Center, the team offers energy-based vaginal rejuvenation with ThermiVa®.
ThermiVa uses targeted radiofrequency (RF) energy to promote collagen synthesis, a process that tightens and shrinks your pelvic muscles and the surrounding tissues. Treatment is pain-free, swift, and requires no downtime. You can return to work or other regular activities right away.
How does vaginal rejuvenation work?
At Sierra Nevada Wellness Center, the team performs vaginal rejuvenation on an outpatient basis. At the beginning of the appointment, you remove your pants and underwear and lie down on an exam table. Your provider carefully inserts a wand-like device with a disposable sheath into your vagina.
Once positioned, the device emits radiofrequency waves in a 360-degree pattern. The waves heat your vaginal tissue, triggering a natural process called collagen remodeling. Collagen remodeling improves your skin’s appearance, enhances your pelvic muscles, and increases the production of natural lubrication.
After about 20 minutes, your provider removes the wand and places it on top of your vagina. It sits there for another 20 minutes, enhancing and tightening your external skin.
What are the benefits of vaginal rejuvenation?
Vaginal rejuvenation provides a variety of benefits, including:
- Increased vaginal laxity (tightening)
- Softer, smoother skin
- Decreased dryness
- Reduced incontinence
Many women who undergo vaginal rejuvenation also experience increased sexual satisfaction. Because ThermiVa strengthens the muscles, it makes it easier to achieve stronger orgasms in a shorter period.
When will I notice the effects of vaginal rejuvenation?
If you want to experience the full effects of vaginal rejuvenation, it’s important to participate in at least three separate appointments spaced about a month apart.
Everyone responds differently to treatment. Some notice an immediate improvement in symptoms, but for most, it takes about two weeks. Follow your provider’s instructions carefully and be patient. Vaginal rejuvenation is a cumulative treatment, meaning it gets better over time.
