How Long Does Votiva Last? Understanding the Longevity of Your Results
There are many options for vaginal tightening available for women. One such treatment is called Votiva. Votiva is a non-surgical treatment that assists in restoring femininity and aids in treating feminine wellness problems, including laxity of the vagina, dryness, and reduced sensation. Votiva uses RF energy for the stimulation and restoration of collagen and also for tissue rejuvenation. It has been quite popular among women, and it addresses this problem without being too invasive.
But for those looking into, or even in the process of undergoing, the treatment themselves, one of the biggest questions remains: How long does Votiva last? Understanding the longevity of your results requires a preface regarding how Votiva works, what factors influence its success, and how to maintain your benefits over time.
How Does RF Work for Vaginal Rejuvenation?
Radiofrequency works by exciting the fibroblasts, which are important in the production and remodeling of collagen. FormaV is a special form of RF technology used in Votiva that gently remodels tissue in the vaginal region. This results in a tightened vagina, better lubrication, and an improvement in labial tone.
Votiva is a revolutionary, dual-action treatment that brings two leading technologies together: FormaV and FractoraV. Radiofrequency energy in both forms delivers remarkable positive changes to internal and external vaginal issues.
- FormaV: A modality of internal vaginal rejuvenation, it serves to enhance elasticity, improve moisture levels, and stimulate collagen production in the vaginal walls.
- FractoraV: It serves to address external areas, improving skin texture and tightening to enhance the appearance and sensation.
Can Votiva Improve the Look of My Vulvovaginal Area Without Surgery?
Yes, indeed! Votiva is a non-surgical treatment of changes in the vulvovaginal area brought about by child delivery, weight gain, or menopause. Votiva promotes the growth of new collagen and elastin with radiofrequency using advanced technologies like FormaV and FractoraV. This serves to firm up and shrink the skin, thus reducing the appearance of wrinkling and tissue laxity. Most women reported that these treatments improved their confidence to be themselves and enriched their personal lives.
How Long Does a Votiva Session Take?
Votiva sessions are quick, usually lasting between 30–60 minutes, and have almost no downtime. Whereas most women should find an improvement in vaginal health, comfort, and aesthetics even with one session, multiple treatments may be advised for more optimal results.
How Long Do the Results from Votiva Last?
The results of Votiva can last for an average of 9–12 months. Individual experiences may vary, and results would also depend on a number of factors like age, lifestyle, and the exact nature of the concerns to be treated.
Immediate and Gradual Improvements
Many women notice an immediate improvement in tightness, sensation, or lubrication within weeks of the first treatment.
Collagen production is gradual, so the results may continue to improve over the succeeding months.
Maintenance Treatments
Although the results of Votiva last, it is affected by the natural aging process as well as changes in hormones. Maintenance treatments are often recommended every 6-12 months by most providers for sustaining benefits.
Factors Affecting the Longevity of Votiva Results
There are several factors affecting the duration of Votiva results:
Age and Skin Elasticity
Younger individuals, or those with naturally higher levels of collagen, may also have longer-lasting results than older individuals or those who have greater tissue laxity.
Changes in Hormones
Fluctuations in hormones, as experienced during menopause or post-childbirth, may affect changes in the elasticity and hydration of tissues, thus potentially affecting the longevity of the results.
Lifestyle Choices
Habits such as smoking, poor hydration, or excessive sun exposure have a degrading effect on collagen and elastin, which in turn decreases the duration of Votiva’s results.
Health Conditions
Disorders relating to hormonal imbalances or autoimmune diseases could affect take-up and progress of treatment results in one’s body.
Treatment Frequency
Follow-up treatments consistently reinforce and extend these results through continued stimulation of collagen production.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Votiva?
Mostly, it may be indicated for women who present with feminine wellness concerns, but also, in general, Votiva is best for:
- Women presenting with vaginal dryness, laxity, or discomfort.
- Postpartum women who have an interest in restoring elasticity and sensation.
- Menopausal women because of the hormonal changes that may affect healthy vagina daily functions.
- Anyone looking for an alternative to invasive surgical procedures.
