Over time, your body goes through various events that can influence its aesthetic and functionality. Aging is one of those factors, but childbirth can also affect the health of your vaginal muscles. This can lead to significant discomfort, which can worsen when it is not addressed on time.
Among the main treatments used to address this concern is the ThermiVa® procedure, which can strengthen and rejuvenate your lady parts. Read this blog to find out what the procedure treats and whether or not you fit the bill!
What Is ThermiVa®?
ThermiVa® is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment that promotes collagen production and tissue regeneration. While the procedure can be used for skin tightening, it’s most effective when used for vaginal rejuvenation, bringing the vaginal walls together and fixing potential looseness.
The controlled thermal energy treatment is often a better alternative to surgery, which can be significantly invasive. It typically lasts about 30 minutes to one hour, including the pre-procedure and post-procedure consultation, with most patients going about their day right after getting the treatment.
What Does ThermiVa® Treat?
The ThermiVa® treatment can help treat various problems that a woman may have, including the following:
1. Mild Incontinence
About one out of three women who go through childbirth end up experiencing urinary incontinence to some extent. By strengthening the muscles in your pelvic region, ThermiVa® can bring your incontinence under control.
2. Pelvic Relaxation
When your pelvic muscles lose their strength, they can no longer hold the organs in their appropriate position. This can lead to a series of uncomfortable side effects, which can be addressed with the ThermiVa® treatment.
3. Vaginal Atrophy
The closer you get to menopause, and the more your collagen production drops, you can eventually become a victim of vaginal dryness. With the natural lubricant gone, intercourse can also become painful. The ThermiVa® procedure helps to reduce vaginal atrophy by triggering a new production of collagen and elastin, strengthening your muscles.
Signs You Are a Candidate for ThermiVa®
The ThermiVa® treatment may be an effective option to treat vaginal atrophy, but are you a good candidate for this treatment? Here are the telltale signs that you might be:
1. You Lost Sensation During Sex
Some may say that the vagina bounces back after childbirth and it doesn’t stay loose, but it’s not exactly true. The muscles will tighten over time, but it won’t be 100% the same; some might still feel loose. This can cause you to lose pleasure during sex since you are losing grip.
2. You Involuntarily Wet Yourself
Are you leaking urine when you laugh, cough, lift heavy items, or bend over? This is something that frequently occurs when the pelvic muscles get atrophied, the pressure causing the “lid” to pop open. To keep it closed, you can use the ThermiVa® treatment to tighten the skin and regenerate the tissue.
3. You Feel Pain During Sex
Every woman likely felt some pain during sex, depending on their partner, which usually goes away once the natural lubricant kicks in. That said, if the vaginal dryness prevents it from accumulating, it can feel like it’s your first time all over again (and not in a good way). If this is your case, then it might be a sign that you should get a ThermiVa® treatment.
4. You Have Frequent Infections
Poor tissue quality and changes in pH due to lack of moisture can lead to frequent yeast infections. If your private parts feel dry and it seems like you are constantly getting bacterial infections, then it might be a sign that you are a candidate for ThermiVa®.
5. You Have Skin Sagging in the Vaginal Area
With age, collagen production can begin to drop, which causes the inner and outer lips of your private parts to sag. Since ThermiVa® uses RF to start collagen and elastin production, you may be a good candidate for the treatment if you feel more saggy down in that region.
