Can you get Thermiva treatment while on accutane?

There is no problem doing radiofrequency treatments intravaginally while on Accutane. I would not do radiofrequency on your face however while on that medication. You are safe to get ThermiVa treatments at this time. Hope this helps. JB

Dear AWook,Thank you for writing in with your excellent question.  Yes you can have ThermiVa vaginally while treating your face with Accutane.  Accutane is high dose Vitamin A and vaginal heat will have no effect on this.I hope this information is helpful.Sincerely,Troy R.

When contemplating having Thermiva treatment there are a list of medical history questions that are asked prior to your procedure. As far as medications go, we do advise to consult with your physician first if you are on any blood thinning medications. Fortunately, Accutane will not cause any effect to you or the treatment itself.

Thank you for sharing. There would be no contraindications to you having a THermiVa treatment while you are on Accutane. Contraindications to treatment include implanted electronic devices, local skin infections at the site of treatment, active urinary tract infections, pregnancy, or recent surgery in the area of treatment. Hope this helps!

Thank you for your question. Although, Energy based treatments to the face is generally not recommended for patients while taking accutane, there is no concern with having any intravaginal treatment including ThermiVa. If it’s time for your touch-up, you can proceed without concerns. Of course you should discuss this with your provider.

ThermiVa utilizes radio frequency energy to treat the vaginal tissues.  It stimulates collagen and improves blood flow to the area which can help with symptoms of stress urinary incontinence, vaginal laxity and dryness associated with menopause.  It can safely be done while on accutane and should not have any negative side effects or compromise the results of either treatment.  

HI,Yes, you can get your maintenance ThermiVa treatment while on Accutane.  Thermiva is a radiofrequency energy device that stimulates collagen in the vulvo-vaginal area.  Accutane will not negatively impact its effects.  Best,Dr. Huo

Yes you can. The treatment is intavaginal using RF energy to stimulate better blood flow, nerve endings and above all stimulate new collagen synthesis and align the old. 

Yes you can get the ThermiVa treatments while on Accutane.  The RF intravaginally should not interfere or have any side-effects with the Accutane.
