VIVEVE
Viveve is one of the best nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation and female urinary incontinence treatments combined. WellMedica is one of the top-rated sexual wellness centers in Northern Virginia; Maryland; and Washington, DC.
WHAT IS VIVEVE?
WellMedica would like to introduce the latest clinically proven, nonsurgical and minimally invasive vaginal rejuvenation and urinary incontinence technology, Viveve, formerly known as Geneveve. We are proud to be the first in the DMV area to provide this groundbreaking treatment.
Many have sought out different treatment options to help get their bodies back. The Viveve does all this and more in helping with urinary incontinence, vaginal laxity, and/or improvement of sexual function. Excessive stretching of the vaginal muscles is a common occurrence after vaginal birth or due to aging and menopause, when estrogen levels drop. Tissue regeneration of the muscular structure stops, and the collagen production becomes slower. The bladder and urinary tract may also become deficient, leading to urinary incontinence.
WHAT TECHNOLOGY IS USED FOR VIVEVE?
Viveve uses clinically-proven, cryogen-cooled monopolar radiofrequency (CMRF) to uniformly deliver gentle volumetric heating to the treated areas while cooling the delicate surface tissue via a small probe. This unique technology prompts the stimulation of the body’s natural collagen formation process. By encouraging your body to increase the amount of collagen in the vaginal tissues, you are also encouraging it to heal and function like it used to.
IS VIVEVE RIGHT FOR ME?
Sometimes, our bodies need a little help performing at their full potential. This can be true of our most intimate areas as we begin to get older. Urinary incontinence is a shockingly common problem in women in their 30s, or even 20s, after giving birth. Viveve treatment might be right for you if you experience:
- Loss of sexual desire.
- Urinary incontinence or overactive bladder.
- Poor self-esteem due to sexual issues.
- Difficulty achieving orgasm.
- Vaginal air passing.
- Vaginal dryness.
- Vaginal itching or pain.
- Vaginal atrophy or thinning of the vaginal wall.
All these symptoms are easily treatable with Viveve and we have seen amazing results with our patients and across the world. In fact, 90% of the women who had the procedure in clinical studies reported significant, sustained tightening, heightened sensation, and consistent satisfaction 12 months after treatment
HOW MANY VIVEVE TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
Most women know about highly invasive surgical rejuvenation procedures that are expensive, can have long and extremely painful recovery times, and carry significant risk.
Now, there is a discreet way to renew satisfaction safely and effectively – with the Viveve treatment. As compared to other non-invasive procedures, Viveve only requires a single treatment. As opposed to other nonsurgical treatments that require routine appointments, Viveve offers a one-and-done solution.
HOW MUCH DOES VIVEVE COST?
The cost of Viveve treatment starts at $4,000. There are a variety of factors that determine overall price. To ensure that your Viveve procedure is affordable, we accept a variety of payment methods including special financing plans. Unlike other practices, at WellMedica, we treat the vaginal canal to tighten the tissues and restore the appearance of your labia majora and minora, offering both internal and external treatment.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING AND AFTER VIVEVE TREATMENT?
The Viveve treatment is a comfortable, single-session treatment that typically takes around 30 - 45 minutes. During the visit, a small treatment tip (about the size of your thumb) is used on the internal and external tissues. The tip is then rotated while it alternately cools the treated area's surface and heats the soft tissues beneath. This is a dual process that uses the cryogen cooling to protect the delicate vaginal tissue after it has been heated by monopolar radiofrequency.
During this treatment, the vaginal tissue is not injured. Therefore, patients can return to all normal activities right after treatment. This includes being able to exercise, bathe, and, of course, get intimate! We encourage our patients to resume normal sexual activity that very same day.
Women typically begin to feel the results of their Viveve treatment after about 30 days, with full results becoming evident after about 90 days. Depending on how you respond to treatment, we may recommend a touch up treatment every year or as you see fit.
