Votiva Intimate Wellness
Take back control of your intimacy, take control of your life.
What is Votiva-PLUS90?
Until recently women did not have many options for addressing hormonal and age-related tissue and sexual function decline. Votiva-Plus90 is a revolutionary treatment that can address overall genital health ( internal and external) and improve female intimate wellness. Votiva is approved for muscle stimulation, relaxation, pain reduction, fractional resurfacing and improvement of blood circulation and sensitivity.
Captivating is proud to offer our beautiful female patients of all ages the tools to take back control of their intimate health.
How does Votiva work?
Inmode’s Votiva-Plus90 utilizes gentle, controlled volumetric heating to increase blood circulation and tissue oxygenation and wellness rendering concerns of dryness, pain, leaking and symptoms of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM) a faint memory of the past.
Votiva was created and based on the development and clinical success of the proprietary A.C.E. (Acquire, Control and Extend) technology. A.C.E. technology targets deep within the tissue to ensure that no areas are under, or over-treated, thereby maximizing results and providing consistent outcomes.
Fractora- V can be added onto the treatment to address skin laxity and cosmetic concerns of aging skin and volume loss. Fractora-V delivers subdermal heating to stimulate skin rejuvenation and tightening resulting in surgical labioplasty-like results.
At Captivating Aesthetics we only offer the most recent and advanced treatments that are Health Canada approved.
Benefits
According to research by the International Society of Sexual Medicine, over 50% of post menopausal females suffer from GSM symptoms, and the incidence is younger females is highly understated and undervalued.
Votiva-Plus90 is indicated for :
- Dryness, burning and irritation in the genital area
- Poor vaginal lubrication during intercourse, with discomfort& pain leading to impaired sexual function
- An urgent need to urinate, painful urination and recurrent urinary tract infections ( UTI)
- Lower blood flow and sensitivity leading to difficulty in obtaining orgasms, or anorgasmia
- Weakening of the pelvic floor muscles leading to leaking and decreased sexual function
- Tissue aging and other cosmetic genital concerns.
- Women of all ages seeking increased sexual function and genital sensitivity
Process & Treatment
The number of sessions depends on our treatment concerns, personal goals and the use of combination therapies to achieve these goals. Typically 3 sessions are indicated, at 2-4 week interval. Most females will notice a difference after the first treatment. The exact treatment schedule will be determined during your initial consultation.
In females with hormonal related changes, we recommend considering combination therapies for exceptional results. Treatments aimed at genital wellness and sexual health include BHRT (Bio-identical Hormone replacement therapy) and Sexual wellbeing shots (PRP injection) and Emsella.
15-90 minutes
At Captivating Aesthetics we recommend a consultation with one of our team experts, although this is not a prerequisite for treatment. The consultation consist of a medical history and review of all previous special investigations. You will have the chance to discuss your specific symptoms, your treatment concerns, your treatment goals and your fears and questions in regards to the actual treatment itself. At the consultation, best combination therapy for your specific case will be established, and a customized treatment plan, along with expected maintenance will then be formulated.
Relevant medical questionnaires will be completed at each visit to monitory progress.
In females with less complex medical concerns, such as seeking improved sexual function and sensitivity, we do not specifically require a full consultation, and a concise complimentary consultation can be done on the day of treatment.
Prior to the treatment:
- An recent normal Pap smear is required
- all irritant topical agents should be discontinued for 2-3 days, and if medically permitted by your physician, all anticoagulants should be stopped by 1-2 weeks prior.
- If no recent examination with your family doctor was done, Dr Zwanepoel will complete a physical examination to ensure no irregularities, lesions or active infections are present
- IF the patient has a personal history of Herpes, a prescription for Acyclovir or Valaciclovir may be requested. Antiviral treatment should be started before Votiva-plus90 treatment day.
- Hair should be shaved in the treatment area 2-4 days before the procedure. Waxing or chemical hair removal should be avoided.
Votiva is a non-invasive, pain-free, no downtime way to address genital wellbeing, incontinence and intimate health. By adding Fractora-V, genital laxity can be addressed with an effective and minimally invasive method. If Fractora-V is added to your treatment, we will apply a numbing gel to the area to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure.
A calibrated intra-vaginal wand is used to administer gentle RF heating for internal and external tissue contraction and rejuvenation, gentle thermal muscle stimulation and relaxation, stimulation of blood flow and tissue oxygenation. With Inmode’s A.C.E. technology, we are able to effectively and reliably target deep within the tissue to ensure that no areas are under, or over-treated, thereby maximizing results and providing consistent outcomes. .
You may expect to feel the treatment area heat up, and some redness may be seen immediately after the procedure. If Fractora-V is added for labial skin rejuvenation, increased redness and swelling may be noted for 2-3 days.
