Intimacy is a basic human need, and studies have shown that a lack of intimate relationships can be detrimental to one’s overall well-being. Many events in a woman’s life, such as childbirth, pregnancy, or menopause, can lead to physical changes and decreased sexual response. Generally, these changes can be difficult to notice during a general gynecological exam. However, they can have a significant impact on your quality of life. Both ThermiVa and Femilift can help boost body confidence and improve intimacy in your life. 

It can be challenging for most women to discuss the changes that occur after childbirth or menopause. The truth is these changes are a normal part of life, so they must be discussed openly. Research has found that childbirth, pregnancy, and menopause can lead to physical changes and decreased sexual response in some women. Changes to your genitals may not be noticeable during a routine exam. But they can affect your quality of life. In the past, these symptoms were only treated with invasive procedures. But now, non-invasive procedures like the FemiLift and ThermiVa can be done in-office with no downtime allowing women to reclaim the vitality of life, restore their more youthful bodies, and revive the excitement. Grace Aesthetics + Wellness has the most advanced and up-to-date cosmetic surgery equipment to ensure client satisfaction.

How does FemiLift work?

FemiLift vaginal laser treatment is designed to tighten and rejuvenate the vagina. This treatment is performed using an advanced laser device. It can be used by women who have had at least one vaginal birth and need to address childbirth-related issues, such as perineal weakness or episiotomy scars. FemiLift vaginal laser treatment will aim to restore the muscles in the walls of the vagina, reducing the risk of ruptures and facilitating muscle regrowth. Each session lasts up to 15 minutes and is conducted in a safe and sterile environment using an FDA-approved laser treatment device. The treatment can also be used after vaginal childbirth or as a preventative measure to minimize or avoid urinary incontinence.

The effects of FemiLift vaginal tightening are long-lasting, and most patients enjoy them for up to 18 – 24 months. The majority of clients only require one treatment for vaginal dryness and laxity. You should come in for maintenance after two years to ensure the best results. Individual results may vary.

The FemiLift treatment is a painless, non-surgical procedure to lift and tone the vagina. This procedure’s most common side effect is cramping, a watery discharge spotted with blood. If it does not stop within about three days, you may want to see a doctor. With FemiLift, women suffering from unwanted vaginal side effects from aging, pregnancy, menopause, and other life events can achieve long-lasting, nonsurgical, painless results. At Grace Aesthetics + Wellness, your satisfaction is our number one priority. You will usually see great results from a single session, but some want multiple sessions for increased effectiveness. We’ve had a 100% satisfied patient rate so far.

How does ​​ThermiVa work?

​​ThermiVa is a non-invasive, non-surgical procedure that delivers radiofrequency energy to the vaginal tissue. The treatment stimulates collagen production, which strengthens and tightens the vaginal tissue. This tightness can lead to increased sensation during sexual activity, more frequent orgasms, and even reduced menstrual pain. ThermiVa is a fast and safe procedure that can undo the effects of childbirth on your vagina. It’s non-ablative, doesn’t take long, and produces lasting results. 

ThermiVa is a non-invasive treatment that uses radio waves to shrink and tighten vaginal tissues. The main side effects of ThermiVa are swelling and warmth of the treated area. Negative side effects include but are not limited to, the risk of burns, pain, light spotting, and/or infection. The treatment is typically a long-term one, with results lasting between 9-12 months. Then you return 1-2 times yearly for maintenance based on your individual requirements. Individual results may vary.

Difference between the FemiLift and ThermiVA 

Both FemiLift and ThermiVA treatments will do wonders for your vaginal tissues. They’ll help you keep a youthful vaginal appearance as well as improve sexual performance and create more pleasure.  In addition to treating your condition, both treatments will ultimately enhance your sexual experience and make you more confident in your sensitive areas. You will also be less susceptible to stress incontinence. The significant differences between the two treatments are the following:

• FemiLift utilizes a fractional CO2 laser instead of radio frequency.
• FemiLift laser is applied to your internal muscles from a 360° angle. 
• ThermiVA treatment utilizes radio frequency waves to stimulate the vaginal area around your internal and external tissues. It does not require the application of an anesthetic.

Regardless of which treatment our nurse practitioner determines would be best for you, both the FemiLift and ThermiVA treatments will help you feel more confident and will work to satisfy your love life. FemiLift’s is more effective than ThermiVa’s radio frequency (RF) energy, though. It has the ability to stimulate collagen and elastin production, which can make your vaginal tissue tighter and more youthful. The results can be truly life-changing. For FemiLift, a session lasts about 15 minutes, whereas a ThermiVa session takes 30 minutes to complete.

Both treatments have been shown to act fast and result in great improvements in both sexual & urinary functioning. Vaginal tightening causes better nerve sensitivity, improved lubrication, and significantly improved tissue reconfiguration.
