Our Office Is The First In Austin To Offer Thermiva Vaginal Rejuvenation
Women have a variety of reasons to have a ThermiVa vaginal rejuvenation procedure, but many have put it off because they did not want to have surgery. Excessive stretching of the vaginal muscles is a common occurrence after vaginal birth or due to aging. Damage can diminish sensation during sexual activity, reduce satisfaction and change the relationship between partners. After a consultation with Dr. Walden or our Nurse Practitioner Leah, one of our skilled medical aestheticians will perform the outpatient procedure and track your progress.
