What Can Vaginal Rejuvenation Restore?
Are you afraid to jump on the trampoline? Kick box? As you age, do you feel the excitement of sex leaving? Or worse, does it seem a little boring or even painful? Has sex lost its appeal? If you feel this way, don't worry, you're not alone. What is vaginal rejuvenation?
Vaginal rejuvenation is not just about a better sex life. In fact, there are many reasons women choose to undergo vaginal rejuvenation that have nothing to do with sex. For example, you may have trouble holding in a tampon, difficulties with bowel movements, or scar tissue build-up. Likewise, you may experience a "popping" sound during a yoga class or when you're walking. If so, you may want to look into vaginal rejuvenation. At this point, improving your sex life simply becomes an added bonus.
Let's discuss what vaginal rejuvenation is and what you might expect during a procedure.
What is vaginal rejuvenation?
Generally speaking, vaginal rejuvenation covers several corrective vaginal procedures. These minimally invasive treatments aim to tighten the inner and outer muscles and structures of the vagina. Likewise, they can enhance vaginal muscle tone, strength, and control. By design, vaginal rejuvenation procedures correct problems that can occur after giving birth or that come with age.
Conditions can include:
- Loosened vaginal canal
- The appearance of the labia, including sagginess or wrinkles
- Pain during intercourse due to vaginal dryness
- Decreased sensitivity and sexual dysfunction
- Urinary stress incontinence
Vaginal rejuvenation can consist of several different types of procedures with varying results. For example:
- female genital plastic surgery
- genital rejuvenation surgery
- designer vagina surgery
- vulvovaginal plastic surgery
What are the benefits of vaginal rejuvenation?
There are many long-term benefits of vaginal rejuvenation procedures. We'll discuss some of those shortly. However, one main benefit for many women is that there is little to no downtime after treatment. You can go about your regular day, go to the gym, and enjoy sexual intimacy all on the same day of a procedure.
Let's highlight some of the benefits you may experience.
- It could improve your sexual experience. Vaginal rejuvenation may involve tightening the vaginal canal. As a result, this may increase the amount of friction you can feel during intercourse. Likewise, it can cause greater stimulation and pleasure during sex. As a result, most patients report an improvement in their sexual life after surgery.
- Improved self-confidence. If you are self-conscious about the appearance of your vaginal area, it may be affecting your sex life. Thus, improving the aesthetic appearance may improve your self-confidence. This may result in increased libido. What could this mean to you?
- Vaginal rejuvenation treats vaginal relaxation—a common condition associated with childbirth and aging. Vaginal rejuvenation surgery can restore strength and improve functionality.
- It's a long-lasting investment. It's normal for all parts of the body to continue to relax with age. Yet, vaginal rejuvenation can prevent the vagina from returning to its previous degree of relaxation. Likewise, unless you get pregnant and deliver vaginally, your results may last you awhile. After a full treatment (3 treatments) most patients only do one touch up a year, therefore, you can consider treatment a long-lasting investment.
You may notice a difference after your first treatment, but the effects are progressive. Usually, after the third treatment, you'll feel a significant change. Results, such as tissue tightening, will continue even after your third month of treatment is complete.
How does vaginal rejuvenation work?
There are two methods of vaginal rejuvenation; surgical and non-surgical.
FormaV is performed in Evolve Medical's Holiday, Utah office after a thorough consultation. During the procedure, a small FormaV probe sends radiofrequency energy to the vagina and labia. Radiofrequency involves gentle, controlled heat. There are many advantages to FormaV, including no downtime, little to no pain, and no anesthesia. Even better, the treatment typically only takes ten minutes. Vaginal tightening, labial tightening, and vaginal rejuvenation involve a series of three treatments. This is typically done once per month for three months. We may recommend maintenance treatments, depending on your condition.
During the treatment, you're likely to feel a heating sensation. You may experience some slight discomfort during or immediately after the treatment. However, a majority of patients report no discomfort during the procedure. Therefore, you're able to return to work after your treatment. In fact, you can resume your normal activities, including intercourse, on the same day. You may experience results immediately. Keep in mind, however, improvements are progressive. Therefore, you'll likely notice more significant changes over the weeks following your treatment.
Individual results may vary. You will meet with a doctor for a pre-consultation. During this time, you'll discuss the issues you're facing and determine whether you're a candidate for the procedure. Likewise, you're able to voice any concerns and expectations you may have.
