Vaginal Rejuvenation
Votiva – Vaginal Rejuvenation Treatment on Long Island
In recent years new technology has been developed specifically to help women seeking to resolve a range of feminine health concerns.
Votiva is a procedure that uses radiofrequency to deliver energy into the walls of the vaginal canal, stimulating the production of collagen. It has been scientifically proven to gradually help to tighten the vagina, improve lubrication and more importantly decrease urinary incontinence. The Forma V uses a thin probe that can be used in all women, even on those with severe atrophy and dryness.
Who Can Benefit From Vaginal Rejuvenation?
Many common conditions and life events like childbirth can cause trauma to the pelvic floor and menopause can cause the loss of a significant amount of collagen and elastin in the vagina. The relaxation of these tissues can also cause urinary Incontinence. You may notice some similar loss of collagen and elastin in other tissues, such as in thinning lip lines or sagging skin. Just like the cells of the face, the cells of the vagina and vulva begin to lose their smooth and supple texture, which can lead to a host of painful and concerning symptoms. Fortunately, Votiva vaginal rejuvenation therapy works to stimulate the growth of new collagen and elastin within the tissues of the vagina and vulva, which can lead to some of the following benefits for our patients:
- Reduces vaginal dryness
- Improves mild to moderate urinary incontinence
- Decreases discomfort during intercourse
- Strengthens vaginal muscles
- Reduces excess labial tissue
- Enhances sexual desire
- Increases vaginal sensitivity
What to Expect During Votiva Treatments
The Votiva workstation is fully equipped with a variety of devices that may be used for different patients based on the unique case and goal of treatment. Such technologies include:
- The FormaV: A wand-like instrument that is excellent for women who have not seen satisfactory results from traditional vaginal tightening exercises like Kegels. This device has shown encouraging results in the strengthening of pelvic floor muscles to relieve issues of sexual dysfunction.
- Morpheus8: This device delivers radio-frequency energy to external tissues to produce long-lasting results of tightened, collagen-rich skin. Morpheus8 may also be used by cosmetic specialists for treatments of the face and elsewhere on the body.
Follow Up Care
Votiva treatments are very minimally invasive, which means that a large majority of patients are able to return to their normal activities without any downtime. It is recommended that women wait to have intercourse until approximately 24-48 hours after their most recent session. Adolescent and Women Medical Center will be able to answer any questions or concerns about this waiting period for each patient based on her experience during treatment.
How Quick Are
the Results?
Many patients will notice an improvement in their symptoms after only one Votiva treatment. However, it is typically recommended that women complete at least 3 total sessions in order to achieve optimal results. These sessions will be spaced 4-6 weeks apart to prevent the vaginal tissues from becoming overstimulated or aggravated.
