Would ThermiVa help fix my ugly outies? (Photo)

Ugly, beautiful, and everything in between are your personal opinions. If you want an opinion about specific changes you are trying to achieve, share specific details. If you prefer to discuss it privately, then consider scheduling a virtual consultation.

Thanks for your question and for being honest about what’s bothering you. A lot of people feel self-conscious about the appearance of their labia or other external anatomy, so you’re definitely not alone in wondering about this.That said, it’s important to understand what ThermiVa is designed to do - and what it is not designed to do.
ThermiVa is a non-surgical radiofrequency treatment that gently heats the tissues of the vulva and vagina. It can improve tissue firmness and elasticity; sensation and blood flow; mild laxity of the internal tissues; some support for mild incontinence. Patients sometimes also notice improved appearance because increased collagen and tissue tone can subtly change the look of the area. But these effects are usually modest and not the primary goal of the procedure.
ThermiVa is not a cosmetic surgical procedure. So, it will not reshape or reduce the labia minora or labia majora; it will not remove tissue; and it will not directly change the fundamental anatomy of an “outie” appearance.
In other words, Thermiva can enhance tissue quality and texture, but it won’t give the same kind of structural, visible change that a surgical labiaplasty would.
For concerns about the size, shape or unevenness of external anatomy, such as labia that protrude in a way that bothers you, a minimally-invasive, in-office labiaplasty is typically the most effective option.This procedure is specifically designed to reshape and reduce external tissue according to the outcome you and your surgeon agree upon.
At Labiaplasty Center of Los Angeles, I aim for results that are natural-looking and tailored to each person’s anatomy and goals. During a consultation, we can discuss what you want to change, why it bothers you and the surgical methods best suited to help you achieve your goals.

Thank you for your question! First of all, having done thousands of these treatments, your picture looks like the after photo of some women. You're being too hard on yourself. I think ThermiVa is definitely an option for you. It would be 3 treatments about a month apart. No anesthesia is required. I think it would be helpful to look at more before and after photos. Some of the results are dramatic. Get an idea of what an acceptable result would be. You know your expectations best. Hope this helps! Dr. Dima

Thank you for your questionThermiva increases collogen and blood supply which smoothes out wrinkles and adds some "puffiness" appearance . This does not appear to be your issue. In my opinion, your appearance would not be considered ugly, nevertheless, if you are looking for a change, an alternative is to do a small perineorrhaphy ( which would bring the bottom part of the labia majora closer together) and possibly a inner labia(minora) reduction could give an appearance you would be happier with.

Are we discussing the labia majora, minora, or vagina? If it’s all, then I would say vaginal Morpheus can address in smoothing the labia majora tissue, May shrink the minora(minimally), and tighten the vagina. I hope that helps.

Hello and thank you for your question and your picture. Although more specific details would be helpful in guiding you to what treatment may be most beneficial for you based on your personal aesthetic goals, I can say that ThermiVa is a very comfortable non-surgical treatment option that delivers radiofrequency energy to the genital area and can help tighten and reduce the size of the labia minora and improve any wrinkling in the labia majora. Best wishes!

Hi Janina, Thermi Va provides the most impressive results in many cases. This FDA-approved technology uses a special device that releases radiofrequency energy and heat to tighten the external and/or internal tissue of the vagina.This treatment can rejuvenate the external genital area and by this way it can tighten the saggy labia majora (the outer lips) and also the labia minora ( inner lips ) as well.
