New tissue-tightening system uses radiofrequency energy
Question: What is ThermiVa® and why would I be interested in it?
Answer: Thermi™ is a system tightening tissues by using radiofrequency energy. In last week’s column, Dr. Michael Frederick discussed ThermiTight®, a minimally invasive procedure that tightens the jaw line, neck and other areas. ThermiSmooth® and ThermiVa® are two other exciting aspect of this system.
ThermiSmooth is an external treatment used to tighten thin papery skin near the eyes, and improve the lines around the mouth. The treatments are performed every one or two weeks for four to six treatments. The area can be a little pink and slightly swollen after the treatment, but this resolves very quickly.
Even more exciting is ThermiVa, the procedure designed to address female gynecological concerns. In ThermiVa, radiofrequency energy is applied to the vaginal wall internally and to the labia externally.
Three monthly 30-minute treatments are very well tolerated with patients feeling heat but no pain. There is absolutely no downtime and patients may return to all normal activities right away. Some changes are immediate, while deeper tightening and collagen synthesis continues for several weeks after your last session.
Patients who may be interested in ThermiVa include those who desire tighter external labia (look better in your yoga pants), tightening of the vaginal canal (make your partner happy), reduced stress incontinence (cough with confidence), or improved intimate function via increased lubrication and easier orgasms (all around more fun for you!).
