Vaginal Rejuvenation

Vaginal rejuvenation in NYC can provide aesthetic and physiological improvements to the external and internal vaginal tissues. Life events, natural aging, and other factors can contribute to vaginal changes over time, causing women to seek labiaplasty surgery. Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation uses radiofrequency (RF) technology to help achieve significant improvements. Using RF technology is a safe way to help patients feel rejuvenated. Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation is non-surgical, requires minimal downtime, and can provide long-lasting vaginal improvements, functionally and cosmetically. Our team at Dermatology, Laser & Surgery of Carnegie Hill can help determine if vaginal rejuvenation in NYC is right for you.

Procedure

Many life events can contribute to vaginal changes. Childbirth and aging can lead to vaginal laxity and decreased lubrication and sexual pleasure. Vaginal dryness, internal and external looseness, decreased sensitivity, and urinary incontinence may also result from physiological changes to the vagina that can be caused by menopause or genetic conditions such as labia minora hypertrophy. In some cases, weight loss can also cause abnormalities of the vagina. Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation can help improve these symptoms safely using advanced RF technology.

Overview

Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation can improve vaginal aesthetics by encouraging collagen and elastin production. Existing collagen will be improved, while new collagen will help contribute to an improved appearance. RF technology delivers uniform energy to the target area, improving skin tone and elasticity. External concerns, including diminished elasticity and looseness, should improve after treatment. Internal vaginal concerns such as poor circulation, decreased sexual pleasure, or incontinence can be treated with Votiva™, as well.

Expectations

Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation in NYC is an outpatient procedure performed right at our practice. The canal, labia, and vulva can all be treated using Votiva™ vaginal tightening technology. One of the biggest benefits of Votiva™ is that patients can receive long-term results in only a matter of minutes. A topical numbing cream will be used to make sure patients are as comfortable as possible during the procedure. Votiva™ technology uses two handheld devices called the Forma V and Fractora V. These devices work in conjunction to bring the best aesthetic and functional improvements. The Forma V is a heating device that is effective for both external and internal vaginal tissue. The Forma V can improve vaginal laxity and increase vaginal tightening by promoting collagen production. The Fractora V provides the same collagen and elastin improvements as Forma V but instead focuses solely on the external vaginal tissue. The radiofrequency technology Votiva™ delivers is an effective yet comfortable experience for NYC vaginal rejuvenation patients.

Treatment Amount

The number of treatments needed for vaginal rejuvenation depends on the desired results. Some patients may be satisfied with one treatment, while others may require more treatments. This will depend on how severe your aesthetic or functional concerns are, as well as your personal goals. Our NYC plastic surgeon, Dr. Elie Levine, can help you determine the appropriate number of treatments for your Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation.

Benefits

Anesthesia

General or local anesthetic is not required during Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation. Instead, a topical numbing cream is used to make sure patients are comfortable during their procedure. Ultrasound gel will also be applied to the device to further improve patient comfort.

Results

Results from Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation can be seen in only a matter of hours after treatment. Although, the best results are typically seen around a few weeks after treatment. Optimal results can appear at varying times for each patient. It is recommended to abstain from intercourse for at least one week after receiving Votiva™ treatment.

Ideal Candidate

If you have gone through menopause or are experiencing menopausal symptoms, Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation may be right for you. Additionally, anyone that has given birth or those who experience vaginal dryness may be good candidates. Many experiences can change vaginal appearance or functionality, making Votiva™ a suitable option. During your in-office consultation, Dr. Elie Levine can listen to your concerns and help you determine whether Votiva™ vaginal rejuvenation is right for you. We are committed to safe and compassionate care. Our dermatologists and plastic surgeons understand the sensitivity of choosing to undergo vaginal rejuvenation.
