Product Overview
The vaginal wall is made up of very dense connective tissue, with an excellent blood supply. Many nerves link through this area. The vulva is lined by special skin cells, making the vulva more ‘skin-like’ than the vagina, with even heftier blood and nerve supply than anywhere else on the human body.
The anatomical structure of the vagina and vulva mean that like other areas on the body, both can have their collagen and elastin damaged, aged, and stretched to the point where it doesn’t bounce back. This stretching results in what we think of as a ‘loose’ vagina and saggy labia.
The vaginal delivery and your vagina and vulva
Vaginal deliveries can cause stretching of the connective tissue of the vagina and the vulva (including the labia), and as it heals, it may never recover its former elasticity and firmness. The older you are when you give birth vaginally, the less your tissue bounces back, since collagen and elastin production naturally slows down over time.
Age and hormones affect the condition of the vagina and vulva. As the vagina and other local structures are stretched out, other issues can arise like stress urinary incontinence (urine leakage when you laugh, cough or sneeze) and atrophic vaginitis (dry, irritated, easily-damaged vulvar and vaginal tissue).
One of the issues that may arise with vulvovaginal laxity is reduced sensations during sex, which can have a negative impact on relationships and self-esteem. The net effect is reduced quality of life.
The aesthetics of the vulva
An element of laxity of the vulva is its appearance, which can be displeasing to some people, leading to self-consciousness. The labia majora (outer vaginal lips) or labia minora (inner vaginal lips) can cause discomfort and irritation when wearing tight clothes and during sex.
Labia minora can droop or dangle lower than they used to, causing discomfort at times. Orgasms can slip away and become much harder to achieve due to a lack of friction caused by laxity or looseness of the vagina.
We can support rejuvenation the tissue of the vagina and vulva (surgery-free)
We have treatments that can contract vulvovaginal tissue, tightening the top few layers of the vagina and vulva, promoting new collagen formation. The old collagen may have been stretched, so the formation of new collagen is imperative when tightening and rejuvenating vaginal and vulvar tissue.
Where we treat
When we treat vulvovaginal laxity, we run the devices over the external vulvar areas.
We use the Tightening Smooth Mode!
