Answer Snippet
FemiLift: How long do the results last?
Nothing Lasts Forever
Feb 21, 2016
Unfortunately, medicine cannot stop the aging process. We can certainly slow it down and repair some of the issues.  The FemiLift procedure stimulates the growth of of collagen and elastin and requires three treatment to achieve the greatest benefits.  At V Femina, we suggest a yearly maintenance treatment to extend the results of the procedure, and to continue to remind your body to keep making collagen and elastin which are the factors responsible for FemiLifts fabulous results.
How does FemiLift work?
How it Works
Feb 4, 2016
As women age, we lose collagen and elastin, both outside our bodies, as well as inside. For our vaginal tissue, this may be compounded as a result of hormonal changes, vaginal childbirth and menopause. The FemiLift laser works by creating minor channels of thermal stimulation in the vaginal canal. This stimulates the cells in your body that are responsible for the development of collagen and elastin to kick into action. More collagen and elastin equals thicker tissue in your vaginal…
FemiLift: How many treatments will I need?
Always Aging!
Nov 27, 2015
Alma, the company that designed the FemiLift laser, suggests that a woman have three treatments spaced a month apart, as well as a yearly maintenance treatment. In our practice, we have found that the women who follow those parameters, tend to have the best results. That being said, occasionally, a woman may be satisfied with her results after two treatments and every now and then, a woman feels that she would benefit from a fourth treatment. This is because, each woman is…
FemiLift: When Will I Notice the Results?
Quick Results
Sep 27, 2015
Most of my patients report an immediate improvement in urinary stress incontinence, increased lubrication and greater I sexual sensation. This may be a result of swelling from the treatment, but it appears that the development of younger, healthier tissue coincides with the decrease in the swelling that result from the procedure. Because there is a great amount of tissue that is left untouched, recovery is very quick. At our practice, we recommend avoiding intercourse, the use of tampons…
Does this procedure work on women whom don’t have a cervix?
Does FemiLift Work On A Woman Without a Cervix
Aug 22, 2015
Absolutely. The cervix does not play a role in the FemiLift procedure. The FemiLift Laser works on the mucosa in the vaginal canal, stimulating and developing collagen and elastin, thickening the tissue, strengthening the pelvic floor and restoring the pressure on adjacent structures. Therefore, a woman without a cervix can expect the same exact results as woman with a cervix.
FemiLift: Is There Any Downtime?
Zero Downtime
Aug 13, 2015
FemiLift is the perfect procedure for the “woman on the go”. There is zero downtime. The procedure takes less time than an annual exam. There is no pain, no anesthesia and the only side effect MAY be slight spotting for a day or two. We, at V Femina, suggest that a patient abstain from sexual activity for three days, but other than that there are no restrictions. This procedure is designed to improve your life, not interrupt it. Any woman who suffers from stress incontinence, post…
What is Urinary Stress Incontinence?
USI
Aug 11, 2015
Urinary stress incontinence is defined as unintentional loss of urine from the bladder. This usually occurs from some type of action that puts stress on the bladder. The stress can be caused by a simple activity such as laughing, coughing, sneezing, jumping or exertion from lifting an object. Childbirth or pregnancy, a change in hormones, menopause and loss of collagen and elastin from aging, all contribute to this uncomfortable condition.
