REGENERATIVE AND FUNCTIONAL GYNECOLOGY
Radiofrequency rejuvenation of the labia majora
The labia majora are made up of a layer filled with a subtle mesh of subcutaneous cellular tissue. From the age of 35 and with menopause, the genital labial area can lose part of its turgor, either due to atrophy of fatty tissue or due to hyperlaxity of the skin, although, in general, a combination of both problems occurs .
At Renova Institute we offer non-invasive radiofrequency vulvar rejuvenation treatments
How is the labia majora rejuvenation treatment with radiofrequency?
The labia majora rejuvenation treatment with radiofrequency is completely outpatient and non-invasive.
Radiofrequency is an electromagnetic emission that is applied to the skin, after applying a transducer gel that facilitates the movement of the handpiece. The applicator is specifically designed for use in Gynecology.
The passage of radiofrequency through the dermis produces an increase in the local temperature of the tissues that triggers the release of heat shock proteins that activate the metabolism of fibroblasts, cells responsible for the generation of the mesh of collagen fibers and skin elastin.
Therefore, radiofrequency produces two simultaneous effects on the labia majora:
Immediate contraction of the skin of the treated area, in the short term.
Long-term collagen remodeling.
The treatment is usually comfortable, it only produces a discreet sensation of heat in the treated area.
The number of sessions necessary for the rejuvenation of the genital lip area must be adjusted to the needs of each patient, although satisfactory results are generally obtained with 4 sessions.
Because the aging process is continuous, an annual booster session is recommended to maintain results.
Radiofrequency vulvar rejuvenation treatment can be optimized with the infiltration of hyaluronic acid fillers or autologous fat in the area, in cases of severe volume loss.
