Are you wondering if Votiva with the O-Shot is a good alternative to vaginal rejuvenation surgery? These advanced treatments use radiofrequency energy and platelet-rich plasma to address vaginal atrophy symptoms without incisions or downtime.
At Evolve Med Spa in Dallas, TX, Dr. Tricia Shimer helps patients restore their confidence through personalized, minimally invasive care. If you want to learn more about Votiva or the O-Shot for female sexual dysfunction, call now to schedule a consultation.
How does Votiva treatment work?
Votiva is a nonsurgical treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten and rejuvenate the vaginal tissue. It addresses concerns like laxity, dryness, and discomfort caused by childbirth, aging, or hormonal changes. By gently heating the tissue, Votiva stimulates collagen production and improves blood flow, which enhances tone, moisture, and sensation.
Votiva is performed in-office and takes about 30 minutes. Most patients need a series of sessions for optimal results, and there's no downtime. You can return to normal activities afterward, making Votiva a convenient option for women with busy schedules.
Understanding the O-Shot
The O-Shot uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your blood to improve sexual function and address vaginal atrophy symptoms. PRP contains growth factors that encourage natural tissue regeneration and enhance sensitivity. When injected into specific areas, the O-Shot can help with decreased sensation, discomfort during intimacy, and urinary incontinence.
The O-Shot uses your own blood to work, so there's no risk of rejection or allergic reaction. Results develop slowly over the following weeks as the tissue regenerates.
How do both compare to vaginal rejuvenation surgery?
Vaginal rejuvenation surgery, such as labiaplasty or vaginoplasty, involves incisions, anesthesia, and recovery time. While surgery can address significant structural changes, it's not always necessary for patients with mild to moderate concerns.
Votiva treatment and the O-Shot offer a nonsurgical alternative that requires no incisions or anesthesia. They are ideal for women who want to improve common issues without the risks and recovery associated with surgery.
Who is a good candidate?
You may be a good candidate for Votiva with the O-Shot if you're experiencing:
- Vaginal laxity after childbirth
- Dryness or discomfort during intimacy
- Decreased sensation or arousal
- Urinary incontinence or stress incontinence
- Female sexual dysfunction
During a consultation at Evolve Med Spa in Dallas, TX, Dr. Shimer will evaluate your symptoms and recommend the ideal approach for your needs.
What results can you expect?
Most patients notice improvements from Votiva and the O-Shot within a few weeks of starting treatment. Votiva typically requires two to three sessions for optimal results, while the O-Shot may be performed as a standalone treatment or in combination with Votiva.
Results include improved tightness, increased moisture, enhanced sensation, and better bladder control. While outcomes vary, the effects can last a year or more, and maintenance sessions can help sustain improvement over time. We can help you create a personalized treatment plan.
