Who is a good candidate for Geneveve?

Post-Childbirth Vaginal Laxity

Difficulties with vaginal looseness and overstretched tissue following childbirth often cause reduced sexual sensitivity and urinary incontinence. This relaxed tissue is known as vaginal laxity, which is often found in new mothers and results from the expansion of the vagina to accommodate a baby while it makes its way through the birth canal. This condition can lead to a decline in female sexual function, poor body image and overall reduced quality of life. Thankfully, the new Geneveve treatment can aid those suffering, regardless of if it’s after their first baby or their fifth. Mothers can now receive the procedure as soon as 8 to 12 weeks following childbirth and finally see the improvements they have been searching for after just a few weeks.

Sexual Sensitivity

Women often struggle with a lack of vaginal rigidity and sensitivity, which can cause detriments in sexual stimulation over time. This loose tissue and resulting negative symptoms can often stem from hormone imbalance, childbirth, a medical condition, or age. Women struggling with these issues now have the option of the advanced Geneveve treatment to generate a natural rejuvenation of your tissue, encouraging the vaginal wall to provide more lubrication and sensitivity during sex. The innovative technology can gently use radio frequencies to repair existing tissue to help restore the elastin and collagen that make for a healthy, tight and sensitive vagina. Now women who sometimes experience a loss of sensitivity or inadequate climax sensations during sex due to vaginal laxity can see long lasting results in the quality and intensity of climaxes with the help of the Geneveve procedure.

Vaginal Laxity and Urinary Incontinence

Stress incontinence is the inability to prevent leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercising. Women may also deal with a strong need to urinate, but struggle getting to the toilet in time, this is referred to as urge incontinence. These forms of urinary incontinence are more common among women, especially menopausal, postpartum or postmenopausal women. Most often incontinence in menopausal and postmenopausal women is due to vaginal laxity from a decrease in collagen and the deterioration of estrogen levels, which reduce the vulvo-vaginal mucosa. The Geneveve treatment stimulates collagen growth to improve vaginal laxity through a non-invasive, low-risk application of heat to the vaginal wall. As the tissue replenishes, the vaginal wall becomes more pliant and supple, and the tightness improves your body’s ability to properly manage urine flow.

The radio frequency device produces a heating of the collagen helix in the applied area, causing proteins to reform and rebuild.
