What is ThermiVa?

ThermiVa is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment designed to rejuvenate vaginal tissues, and is used for both cosmetic and functional purposes. The procedure uses controlled thermal energy, specifically radiofrequency (RF) energy, to gently heat tissues in and around the vaginal area. This has been shown to promote collagen and elastin production, which can lead to improved tissue tightness and elasticity.

How ThermiVa Works

ThermiVa utilizes radiofrequency (RF) energy to gently heat vaginal and vulvar tissues, which promotes collagen and elastin production. The controlled thermal energy is administered through a specially designed hand piece, which can be adjusted to target specific tissues. This process aims to tighten and rejuvenate the treated areas without the need for surgery.

Benefits

ThermiVa can improve the external aesthetics of the vaginal area while also tightening internal tissue and promoting rejuvenation at the cellular level. This option for non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation is best for women who struggle with:

• Vaginal dryness
• Vaginal laxity
• Reduced sensation during intercourse
• Mild stress urinary incontinence
• Self-consciousness over external vaginal appearance

Candidates

Good candidates for ThermiVa are women seeking a non-surgical option for vaginal rejuvenation. Individuals who are in generally good health and have reasonable expectations are considered the best candidates for this procedure. However, pregnant women or those with certain health conditions, like pelvic organ prolapse or active urinary tract infections, may not be suitable for the treatment. During your personal consultation, our staff will be able to determine whether this procedure could be beneficial for you.

I recently started going to BASU and I am so HAPPY with the staff and my results. From the moment you walk in and all through your treatment the staff makes you feel welcome and comfortable.

Your ThermiVa Procedure

Consultation

During your ThermiVa consultation, one of our team members will sit down with you one-on-one to discuss your medical history, overall health, and specific concerns or goals related to vaginal health. We will explain the ThermiVa procedure and outline the potential risks, benefits, and expected outcomes to help you understand what the treatment will entail. Your consultation is an opportunity for you to ask questions and address any concerns you may have about the treatment, cost, and recovery process.

Procedure

One of the greatest advantages of ThermiVa is the fact that it is non-surgical, typically painless, and therefore does not usually require anesthesia or numbing agents. Before the procedure, your provider will clean the treatment area and may apply a gel for ease of device movement.

During the treatment, the specially-designed hand piece allows for continual temperature monitoring to comfortably treat the target area using a heat-based radiofrequency (RF) energy. This heat energy shrinks excess skin while tightening vaginal tissue, restoring improved sensation and vaginal function along with toning the labial contours.

The procedure is relatively quick, often completed within half an hour. Patients may experience a warm sensation during treatment but should not feel pain, making it generally well-tolerated.

Post-Treatment: Recovery & Results

Recovery after ThermiVa is typically minimal due to its non-surgical nature. Most patients can return to their regular daily activities, including work, immediately following the procedure without any downtime. Sexual activity can usually be resumed the same day, but it is always advised you follow your provider’s specific recommendations to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.

Side Effects

Any side effects from a ThermiVa treatment are generally minimal and temporary. Some patients may experience mild discomfort, swelling, or redness in the treated area, but these symptoms typically subside shortly after the procedure.

Results

After ThermiVa, you should notice improvements both internally and externally, including labia remodeling, restored vaginal tightness, enhanced sexual sensation, increased vaginal lubrication, and a reduction in mild urinary leakage.

Most women see the best results from a series of 3 ThermiVa treatments scheduled several weeks apart, but you may see positive changes right after your very first session. Final results will continue developing over time and should be apparent by about 2 weeks after your treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much Does ThermiVa cost in Houston?

The cost of nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation can vary depending on your unique needs and goals. At Basu Aesthetics + Plastic Surgery, we offer frequent special promotions for our med spa treatments, as well as a variety of plastic surgery financing options to make your treatment as affordable as possible.

How long does a ThermiVa treatment take?

A ThermiVa treatment at our Houston or Cypress med spa typically takes around 30 minutes per session to complete. The exact duration may slightly vary depending on the individual patient’s needs and the specific areas being treated.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of ThermiVa treatments required varies per individual, but commonly, a series of three treatments spaced about one month apart is recommended for optimal results. The exact number might depend on the patient’s goals, age, and the degree of improvement desired. During your personal consultation, we will help come up with a customized plan and determine how many treatments are needed to achieve your desired outcome.

Is ThermiVa painful?

ThermiVa is generally not considered painful, as the heat delivered by the hand piece is carefully monitored and controlled. Patients might feel a warm sensation during the treatment, but it’s usually well-tolerated. Any discomfort experienced is typically minimal and temporary.

How long should I wait between treatments?

Patients are typically advised to wait about one month between ThermiVa treatments. This interval allows the treated tissues to respond to the therapy and for any mild side effects or discomfort to resolve. However, the exact timing may vary, so we will determine how long you should wait between treatments during your initial consultation.

Can I combine ThermiVa with other surgical or non-surgical procedures?

ThermiVa is often performed as part of a mommy makeover to help you feel more like yourself again after completing your family, but our team will work with you to decide which procedure or combination of procedures could be best to help you reach your personal goals. We offer a number of treatments and procedures designed to help you look and feel your best – inside and out! Some of our ThermiVa patients are also big fans of BioTE Hormone Replacement Therapy, Ballancer Pro lymphatic drainage, Emsculpt non-surgical body contouring, The Skinny Shot weight loss injections, as well as Botox and dermal fillers like Juvederm and Restylane.

The staff at Basu are some of the nicest people you will meet and make you feel extremely comfortable… I am continuously impressed with not just Dr. Basu’s work, but his staffs work as well. I cannot recommend Basu Aesthetics enough!
