Thermiva vs surgical options for vagina rejuvenation. I am looking to tighten vagina is thermiva a good option?

It depends on your situation. As a certified ThermiVA trainer in the Atlanta area, I have trained many
doctors on how to safely use ThermiVA and we have the most
experience with ThermiVA in Atlanta, Georgia. ThermiVA is safe. It is a non-surgical
temperature controlled vaginal tightening device using radiofrequency (RF)
energy. ThermiVA is performed in the office using only local anesthesia.
There is no need for sedation or general anesthesia, but available if
requested. ThermiVA uses the same technology as ThermTight and ThermiSmooth,
which has been used for years in other areas to reduce the effects of aging
such as the face, neck, arms, and abdomen. We know it works!For those looking for vaginal tightening procedures, its
better to be evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon and offered the correct treatment for the problem.
ThermiVA is one of the tools we offer. I agree, "if all you have is a
hammer..... everything looks like a nail" Do your homework to make sure
your plastic surgeon offers other options for your problem and is experienced with RF technology and surgical solution. We offer both and give our patients an honest  opinion. Themiva is a wonderful procedure
for vaginal
tightening for vaginal laxity, stress urinary urgency, orgasmic
dysfunction, labial reduction. ThermiVA is the latest technology for
vaginal rejuvenation without surgery, or downtime. The excellent results
from Thermiva has been supported by studies, patient testimonial, and
numerous reviews. In our certified center, those that are not
candidates for ThermiVa are offered other options such as labialplasty
or vaginoplasty during the confidential consultation.However, your best plastic surgeon has the experience,
training, and results that relates to you. Do your research and find a real
Plastic Surgeon and book a paid consultation. Free consults are just a sales
pitch and does not work in your best interest. People always say “you get what
you pay for”. This is very true in Plastic Surgery.
Below are other criteria to use when selecting a Plastic surgeon.
Questions to ask your potential plastic surgeon (Answering NO is a big red
flag)
1) Are you a plastic surgeon? (You should research the differences between
cosmetic surgeon & plastic surgeon. Make sure that your plastic surgeon is
a trained surgeon! You may be surprised)
2) Are you board certified in Plastic Surgery? (Board certified in what? You
are looking for the American Board of Plastic Surgery. There are many boards
and some are fake. Make sure that the certifying board is a member board of the
American Board of Medical Specialties or the American Osteopathic Association.)
3) Will the procedure be performed at a fully accredited & certified procedure
room or ambulatory surgery center, or hospital
4) Do you have hospital privilege to perform the same procedure you do in the
office? Which Hospital?
5) Do you offer complication insurance. How do you handle complications and
revision (it does happen, it better to be safe)
The most important decision is to do your homework well. Good luck.

Hi Indigo Mom,The umbrella of childbirth can cause bladder, bowel and sexual function changes for many women, including stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine with increased abdominal pressure as with coughing, sneezing, jumping, lifting, laughing), constipation, hemorrhoids, problems with tampons staying in, gas-like noises with sex, feeling too wide or loose, having to assist with going to the bathroom (bowels), and partner fall out during the act due to weak muscles at the vaginal opening.With deliveries, the pelvic anatomy changes to various degrees, and we all heal differently.  If you are experiencing changes in the quality of sexual intimacy, vaginal rejuvenation can help.  Surgical vaginal rejuvenation procedures address the relaxed walls and put muscles back together while non-surgical ThermiVa uses heat to stimulate tissue shrinkage and collagen formation.  Neither are permanent solutions however, ThermiVa, like Botox and fillers, requires a once a year maintenance treatment to help keep results, while surgery is likely to last much longer without needing to be re-done.For the very active woman with little ability for downtime, the woman that does not want surgery or someone who is not a surgical candidate, ThermiVa is an excellent option as there is no cutting, no needles, no anesthesia and no downtime at all, and you can feel and see the results right away.  There is no pain, only a feeling of warmth during the procedure.I have recently started using ThermiVa and I think it is an excellent option for women with mild anatomy changes, so if your doctor didn't identify much stretched tissue with your exam, you may be a good candidate for ThermiVa. For more information call me at the Cosmetic Gynecology Center of san Antonio.  I am here to help you improve the quality of your life.Sincerely,Dr. Hailparn

Surgical tightening produces effective and long-lasting tightening of the vaginal canal. It is the gold standard for tightness. Nothing can make you tighter than a vaginoplasty. However, vaginoplasty only works well if the vaginal supports are intact. If you have damaged vaginal supports, vaginoplasty will not be enough and you will need to have pelvic reconstructive surgery at the same time in order to achieve an excellent result. Non-surgical vaginal tightening will produce temporary vaginal tightening that is not as tight as what can be achieved surgically. Nonetheless, it is an excellent option for women with relatively intact vaginal supports who do not wish to have surgery.

Thermiva is a great way to address your concerns regarding looseness. With Temperature Controlled Radio Frequency Thermiva promotes three different effects; Immediate contraction of collagen, Immediate collagen remodeling and elasticity, Long term stimulation of production of new collagen. When beginning Thermiva you will start with three sessions that are spread out six weeks apart. A lot of women start to notice the effects after the first session. After your third session is completed you would then only do a once a year maintenance session. Sometimes women find that they can hold off longer than a year but it is always recommended to keep up on it.

Kegel exercises will strengthen your pelvic musculature but thats not how ThermiVa works. It works by applying controlled heat to the mucosa of your vagina which shrinks the tissues. Its minimally intrusive, painfree and, in the world of cosmetic procedures, fairly cheap. Hope you'll schedule an appointment with a doc in your area to discuss your interest. Good luck

ThermiVa works by delivering radiofrequency (thermal energy) via a small probe to both the internal vaginal canal and the external labia. The tissue is heated to specific temperatures, encouraging the growth of new collagen, increased blood flow and improved nerve supply. ThermiVa is FDA approved for skin tightening, however, patients also report increased sensation, moisture and improvement in symptoms of stress urinary incontinence.
The ThermiVa can certainly improve the laxity of your vagina, but keep in mind that unlike surgery the ThermiVa does not change the amount of skin or tighten muscles. I always tell my patients that it would be comparable to a face lift vs botox injections. Yes, you will see improvement in skin laxity, but it is a non-invasive procedure so results won’t be as drastic. I would recommend that you consult with an experienced physician who specializes in cosmetic gynecological procedures to guide you, based on your medical history and physical exam.
Cheers!

Thanks for your question -Female vaginal health is something that has long been neglected - There are multiple potential solutions for vaginal laxity.  It is completely normal to have a change in vaginal tone after childbirth.  Traditionally surgery has been a mainstay in vaginal rejuvenation and is certainly effective.  More recent treatments include laser ablation of the vaginal vault and ThermiVA.The downside to surgery and laser is they are procedures that typically require downtime, recovery and anesthesia for pain control.  ThermiVA has the advantage of avoiding these down sides.See your plastic surgeon to discuss which treatment is right for you!

ThermiVa is a relatively new non-surgical procedure for vaginal rejuvenation that a lot of people are talking about. However, I still stand by surgical vaginal rejuvenation providing the best results. With ThermiVa, you need multiple treatments to see results, and the results, in my opinion, are not as precise or guaranteed as you see with a surgical vaginal rejuvenation procedure. I recommend consulting in person with a board certified plastic surgeon who has expertise in vaginal rejuvenation surgery. This way they can examine you and explain what the best treatment option is to help you achieve your desired results. Good luck!

Although there is risk with any procedure there is very little risk of excessive scar tissue or desensitization with the FemiLift, Mona Lisa or ThermiVa devices. FemiLift™ and Mona Lisa™ procedures use CO2 laser technology and the ThermiVa™ uses RF (radiofrequency) to shrink vaginal tissue and increase lubrication if dryness is a problem. The tightening is often sufficient to improve or correct urinary stress incontinence and/or mild cystoceles. The procedure is done in office and requires little or no post procedure down time.The advantages are :Minimally invasive, virtually painless procedureGentle treatment for controlled safety and accuracyMaximum precision with Alma CO2 laser, the right wavelength and perfect pulseFast and efficient delivery of fractionated laser energy split into micro pixelsNo post treatment downtimeExcellent patient satisfaction and long term success The Disadvantage of the FemiLift and MonaLisa is that is is only for vaginal treatment whereas the ThermiVa RF device can be used to shrink the labia minora as well and is more comfortable. These procedures cannot narrow the vaginal canal as much as a vaginoplasty surgery#vaginalrejuvenation#vaginaltightening#vaginoplasty

Themiva has been demonstrated
to improve vaginal dryness, improve vaginal circulation and heighten
orgasm. Surgery will always work better but this is a good option
