INTIMATE WELLNESS
ThermiVa is a non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to treat various concerns affecting women's vaginal health. It's designed to address both medical and cosmetic issues, offering potential benefits in several areas:
-
Vaginal Tightening: ThermiVa can help tighten the vaginal tissues, which may become lax due to factors like childbirth, aging, or genetics. This tightening effect can lead to improved sexual satisfaction for both the woman and her partner.
-
Stress Urinary Incontinence: Some women experience urinary incontinence, especially after giving birth or as they age. ThermiVa can strengthen the pelvic floor tissues, potentially reducing or alleviating symptoms of stress urinary incontinence.
-
Vaginal Dryness: Vaginal dryness can result from hormonal changes (such as menopause), certain medications, or medical conditions. ThermiVa may help improve vaginal lubrication by stimulating collagen production and increasing blood flow to the vaginal tissues.
-
Laxity and Atrophy: Vaginal atrophy is a common issue that arises due to decreased estrogen levels, often occurring during and after menopause. ThermiVa can promote tissue regeneration and increased blood flow, potentially addressing issues related to vaginal dryness, thinning of vaginal walls, and discomfort.
-
Appearance Enhancement: ThermiVa can also contribute to the improvement of the external appearance of the vulva, addressing concerns such as sagging labia or other cosmetic issues.
-
Enhanced Sexual Satisfaction: Many women report improved sexual satisfaction and heightened sensitivity following ThermiVa treatment, as the procedure can help restore natural tissue elasticity and lubrication.
-
Minimal Downtime: ThermiVa is a non-surgical procedure performed in an outpatient setting. It typically involves a series of short sessions, and there's minimal to no downtime or recovery period required.
It's important to note that while ThermiVa has shown promising results for many women, individual experiences can vary.
Consulting with Dr. Cagnes first is crucial to determine whether ThermiVa is an appropriate option based on an individual's specific medical history, concerns, and goals.
Additionally, alternative treatments and therapies are available, so it's advisable to explore different options and make an informed decision.
Here's how ThermiVa might be beneficial for new moms:
-
Vaginal Tightening: The stretching of vaginal tissues during childbirth can lead to vaginal laxity. ThermiVa can help tighten these tissues, restoring the pre-pregnancy state and improving both comfort and sexual satisfaction.
-
Urinary Incontinence: Postpartum urinary incontinence is common due to weakened pelvic floor muscles. ThermiVa's treatment can strengthen these muscles, potentially reducing or eliminating stress urinary incontinence symptoms.
-
Enhanced Healing: ThermiVa's radiofrequency energy can promote increased blood flow and collagen production in the treated area, which may contribute to faster healing and tissue regeneration after childbirth.
-
Cosmetic Improvement: Beyond its functional benefits, ThermiVa can also address cosmetic concerns, such as changes in the appearance of the labia or vaginal area postpartum.
-
Non-Invasive Option: ThermiVa offers new moms a non-surgical, non-invasive alternative to more extensive procedures, which might be appealing for those looking to avoid surgery.
It's important for new moms to consult with Dr. Cagnes before undergoing any kind of treatment, including ThermiVa.
Every woman's body and postpartum recovery are unique, and a healthcare professional can provide personalized advice based on individual needs and circumstances. They can help assess whether ThermiVa is a suitable option and discuss any potential risks or considerations.
