Ever since, my divorce, I have been self conscious regarding the appearance, as well as the loose feeling of my vagina. in addition, I had started leaking a tiny bit whenI laughed too hard, coughed or sneezed. When I went for my annual exam, my doctor told me about this new procedure called FemiLift. She said it would help with the looseness, the leaking and might even change the appearance.
Unfortunately, medicine cannot stop the aging process. We can certainly slow it down and repair some of the issues. The FemiLift procedure stimulates the growth of of collagen and elastin and requires three treatment to achieve the greatest benefits. At V Femina, we suggest a yearly maintenance treatment to extend the results of the procedure, and to continue to remind your body to keep making collagen and elastin which are the factors responsible for FemiLifts fabulous results.
As women age, we lose collagen and elastin, both outside our bodies, as well as inside. For our vaginal tissue, this may be compounded as a result of hormonal changes, vaginal childbirth and menopause. The FemiLift laser works by creating minor channels of thermal stimulation in the vaginal canal. This stimulates the cells in your body that are responsible for the development of collagen and elastin to kick into action. More collagen and elastin equals thicker tissue in your vaginal canal. Thicker tissue increases pressure on the urethra and adjacent structures which helps with urinary stress incontinence. Moreover, a tighter vagina creates more sensation for both partners during intercourse and younger, healthier tissue may restore your appearance to its original appearance.
Alma, the company that designed the FemiLift laser, suggests that a woman have three treatments spaced a month apart, as well as a yearly maintenance treatment. In our practice, we have found that the women who follow those parameters, tend to have the best results. That being said, occasionally, a woman may be satisfied with her results after two treatments and every now and then, a woman feels that she would benefit from a fourth treatment. This is because, each woman is different and every situation is unique, and at V Femina, we like to treat everyone accordingly.
Most of my patients report an immediate improvement in urinary stress incontinence, increased lubrication and greater I sexual sensation. This may be a result of swelling from the treatment, but it appears that the development of younger, healthier tissue coincides with the decrease in the swelling that result from the procedure. Because there is a great amount of tissue that is left untouched, recovery is very quick. At our practice, we recommend avoiding intercourse, the use of tampons or introducing any other foreign object in the vagina for a minimum of three days. After three days, there s a noticeable difference in the feeling of the vaginal canal and patients report that it only improves with time. By the time, a patient has her second treatment, a month later, she feels a significant difference from her pre-treatment status. This procedure is genuinely a win-win-win treatment, giving a woman the confidence that she desires, decreasing any unintentional loss of urine, improving sexual stimulation and creating an aesthetic improvement WITHOUT surgery or downtime
Absolutely. The cervix does not play a role in the FemiLift procedure. The FemiLift Laser works on the mucosa in the vaginal canal, stimulating and developing collagen and elastin, thickening the tissue, strengthening the pelvic floor and restoring the pressure on adjacent structures. Therefore, a woman without a cervix can expect the same exact results as woman with a cervix.
