What Treatments Are Available?
Right now, Kegel exercises are the most commonly prescribed treatment for vaginal laxity. However, while Kegel contractions may help improve the strength of the pelvic floor by improving muscle tone, it doesn’t address lax tissue between the muscle and the vaginal surface. The surgical options currently available to women include significant recovery time and post-procedure pain. As with any surgical procedure, these options also involve a variety of health risks and can include high out-of-pocket financial costs.
What’s Different About the Viveve Procedure?
The Viveve procedure is not cosmetic; instead, it works on the cellular level to rebuild and restore collagen and as a result can increase feelings of vaginal tightness and improve sexual satisfaction. The procedure:
- Non-surgical and non-ablative
- Requires no anesthesia
- Little-to-no downtime
- Can be completed in about 30 minutes
