After women give birth, many experience several intimate issues. Stress urinary incontinence, or leaking of urine with coughing, sneezing, or exercise, is one issue. Loss of sexual sensation, loss of natural lubrication, and development of vaginal laxity are others. These issues can cause embarrassment, loss of confidence, and decreased interest in sex.
Vaginal rejuvenation refers to corrective treatments to help lessen these effects and improve confidence and overall quality of life. To learn more about available procedures for vaginal rejuvenation in Troy, contact Dr. Danielle DeLuca-Pytell today for a consultation.
Vaginal renewal or rejuvenation in Troy can involve several different procedures, as described below.
Labiaplasty is a minor surgical procedure used to reduce the size of the labia minora—the inner lips of the female genitalia—so that they do not protrude from the outer lips of the vagina, known as the labia majora.
Viveve uses deep heating and surface cooling to thicken collagen in the vaginal walls. This treatment improves both stress urinary incontinence and vaginal atrophy resulting in increased lubrication during intercourse and improved sexual response. Viveve is an outpatient procedure performed in the office within approximately 45 minutes.
Vaginal rejuvenation in Troy is one of the most common procedures performed on the female genitalia. Most women experience positive results after undergoing these treatments. Strong candidates for vaginal rejuvenation procedures include women who have experienced vaginal changes, including stretching, due to childbirth, aging, or sexual activity.
Additionally, women who experience pain during intercourse or activities like biking and those who suffer from urinary incontinence when laughing, coughing, sneezing, or lifting heavy objects could benefit from vaginal rejuvenation. Surgical treatments produce long-lasting, if not permanent, effects. Viveve should be repeated yearly for best results. However, it is important to remember that changes to the vagina can occur with aging, even after undergoing a vaginal rejuvenation procedure.
Women in Troy can undergo several types of vaginal rejuvenation treatments, and the amount of recovery time needed will vary depending on whether the procedure is surgical or non-surgical. For example, most women who undergo labiaplasty, which involves removing excess tissue from the labia, can return to many activities within two weeks.
Non-surgical options, such as Viveve, often feature few, if any, side effects, meaning patients can resume sexual activity within 24 hours of the procedure. That said, the results of non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation treatments do not last as long as surgical procedures. Therefore, most patients receiving Viveve will need to repeat the treatment once a year to maintain positive results.
