Vaginal rejuvenation is an exciting new area of treatment that can offer women many benefits. On top of improving sexual satisfaction and confidence, having a treatment like Viveve done can actually help to stop stress and urge urinary incontinence. This technology is used all over the world to help women reap the benefits of tightening their vaginal tissue and stimulating new collagen growth.
What Is Urinary Incontinence?
There are actually two different forms of incontinence, which is the involuntary loss of urine. They are urge and stress. Urge incontinence happens when the bladder muscles suddenly contract. It is often accompanied by a sudden urge to use the bathroom. Stress incontinence, on the other hand, is the result of physical activity. Things like jumping, coughing, sneezing, or lifting heavy objects can put stress on the bladder. Although thought to help with both, Geneveve is especially effective at treating stress urinary incontinence.
How Does Viveve Work?
This non-surgical, non-invasive procedure uses radio frequencies. The specific type of waves used are known as cryogen-cooled monopolar radiofrequency, or CMRF. These waves penetrate deep to heat the vaginal tissue but do so in a gentle manner. Cooling of the surface tissue is done at the same time, ensuring you remain comfortable.
When this treatment happens, your body responds by “healing” itself. This is done in the form of generating new collagen. Since the surface layer of skin is not damaged, you can immediately resume your normal activities. The new, stronger collagen is often very effective for treating urinary incontinence.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Viveve?
Due to the gentle nature of this procedure, it is an appropriate option for almost all women. Any woman struggling with the symptoms of vaginal laxity, such as urinary incontinence, should give Viveve serious consideration. This is also a good option for those who are dealing with vaginal dryness and lack of sexual sensation and desire. In order to be considered a good candidate, you should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations for what this procedure can do for you.
