How We Can Use ThermiVa to Help You Reclaim Your Life

The Dr. Frank Fechner Medical Aesthetics Center, in Worcester, Massachusetts, has a long history of improving one’s physical appearance and helping patients to feel younger. As a specialist in plastic surgery and medical aesthetics, our team comprises experts in skin care. So, we are delighted and excited at being able to extend our female wellness services to embrace the revolutionary new ThermiVa treatment.

ThermiVa gives a new lease of life to the vagina by addressing the results of natural ageing, including menopause, and repairing damage caused by childbirth. It does so in a non-intrusive procedure that requires neither surgery nor anesthetic. ThermiVa patients require no downtime for recovery.

ThermiVa works by using the “Science of Heat”, producing radio-frequency heat to boost the generation of collagen, which promotes firmness in the body. ThermiVa vaginal rejuvenation treatment entails three sessions, over two months, of up to 30 minutes each. Results vary but the majority of patients have reported immediate improvement. The benefits are typically noticeable in two weeks. Full results are achieved after the final treatment. The effects last for up to 18 months, and most patients opt for maintenance treatments six to 12 months apart. Labia majora, or external, treatment takes just 10 minutes.

If you suffer from any of the problems listed below, we can use the ThermiVa process to help you.

  • Vaginal laxity. Remedy: tightening of the vagina, including the entire length of the vaginal canal.
  • Vulvar/labial laxity: Remedy: tightening of the labial tissues and reduction of noticeable sag.
  • Vaginal/vulvar dryness or atrophic vaginitis: Remedy: the creation of softer and thicker skin and relief of dryness without use of hormones.
  • Mild to moderate stress incontinence: Remedy: reduction of accidents and leakage.
  • Sexual dysfunction: Remedy: increase of sensitivity and strengthening of muscular contractions, leading to greater sexual satisfaction for you and your partner.
