Vaginal Rejuvenation
ABOUT VAGINAL REJUVENATION
Menopause, natural childbirth, and aging can take a toll on the body of a woman, causing a loss of elasticity in the vagina and leading to functional issues. Nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation at Cornerstone MD can help to strengthen your vaginal tissue with the help of advanced InMode technology to address issues, like pelvic floor dysfunction and overly stretched labia majora. Vaginal rejuvenation with InMode's Aviva and Votiva work by delivering safe and uniform heat to the soft tissue matrix of the inner and outer vagina, strengthening the tissue over time. The procedure also improves the physical appearance of the vagina, offering a boost in your overall confidence without the scars that accompany labiaplasty. If you would like to learn more about vaginal rejuvenation, please contact our office to schedule a consultation with Dr. Carolyn Riley.
IDEAL CANDIDATES
You might be a good candidate for vaginal rejuvenation if you are suffering from vaginal difficulties or aesthetic concerns but do not want to undergo surgery. Nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation tightens your vaginal canal, addresses urinary incontinence, allows for increased production of natural vaginal moisture and lubrication, minimizes sex-related pain, and amplifies sexual pleasure and climax. It also reveals dramatic results without a long recovery. Most patients can return to their daily activities immediately following treatment.
PROCEDURE TECHNIQUE
Dr. Riley will provide your vaginal rejuvenation treatment in Dallas, Texas office in under an hour. Aviva and/or Votiva can be performed with local anesthesia and do not involve incisions or sutures.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Vaginal rejuvenation with Aviva is considered minimally invasive and may require a few days of recovery post-procedure. Patients should plan the procedure around a long weekend and allow themselves up to ten days to fully recover. Your results will be immediate with benefits increasing over the months following the procedure.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much do FormaV and Aviva cost? The cost for your vaginal rejuvenation treatment will depend on your desired result and the technology (Aviva or Votiva) used to achieve that result. Cornerstone MD is passionate about helping restore the confidence of our patients and works to ensure your treatment is affordable by accepting multiple payment options. How many sessions are required? In order to achieve optimal results, we recommend a series of 3 treatments. After the initial treatment, patients typically experience an improvement, but more substantial relief of symptoms occur after the second treatment. What is the recovery like? Each patient recovers differently from the minimally invasive Aviva. You should be prepared to rest and recover for at least two days, during which time you may experience some discomfort and swelling. Avoid intercourse for 1 week. Votiva recovery is minimal with no downtime.
BioTE
What Is BioTE Medical's Method of Pellet Therapy?
Pellets are tiny, custom-compounded therapies for symptoms that stem from hormonal imbalances. The BioTE method may help keep patient’s hormone levels consistent throughout the day. The pellet therapy that BioTE trains on uses hormones that are bioidentical to those found in the human body.
What Is Hormone Imbalance?
As we age, the production of hormones can be affected. Too much or too little of a hormone can have effects on the body, ranging from moderate to severe.
What Is Hormone Optimization?
The BioTE method of specialized hormone pellet therapy uses custom-compounded pellets that are specifically designed to replace the hormones men and women lose over time.
What Is Pellet Therapy?
During pellet therapy, pellets are inserted subcutaneously into the body in a quick, simple, in-office procedure. These pellets will gradually be absorbed, dispersing hormones throughout the body.
Why Bioidentical Pellet Therapy?
Because it is easy! Hormone replacement patients receive as few as three bioidentical hormone pellet insertions per year. This way they do not have to think about it, and the hormone is available when their bodies need it. It is a simple, one-and-done process, and there is no need to worry about remembering to take a pill or shot every day
What Is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Pellet Therapy?
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can come in oral, topical, and pellet forms. BHRT using pellets, offers a consistent administration, and may help prevent rollercoaster-like effects
How Long Does BHRT Pellet Take to Work?
Each hormone replacement therapy patient’s symptoms are unique, so is each patient’s path to hormone optimization. Most hormone therapy patients report some symptom resolution in as little as four weeks, but full optimization may take up to six months. The bioidentical hormone replacement therapy journey will be customized to fit your patient’s specific needs.
