Women’s Intimate Wellness

ThermiVA does not require any anesthesia. The radiofrequency-emitting probe is moved around gently inside the vagina and across the labia lips, producing the sensation of a warm, healing massage.

There are no incisions with ThermiVa and therefore no anesthesia, sutures, or recovery time is required. ThermiVa does not rely on any pills, lasers, or hormones, so there is little chance of an allergic reaction. The best path to ensuring a successful ThermiVa procedure is to choose a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon such as Dr. Korman in the greater Bay Area.

Results after ThermiVa can last anywhere from 9 months to 2 years. Many different factors affect the longevity of your results, including your age, overall health, environmental issues, and genetics. Women can benefit from undergoing one maintenance session with ThermiVa per year in order to maintain their benefits.

Whether due to childbirth, aging, genetics, or hormonal fluctuations, many women experience decreased sexual arousal and difficulty achieving orgasm. The O Shot is a feminine rejuvenation treatment to enhance female sexual pleasure and function. It relies on PRP (platelet-rich plasma) to revitalize the vaginal tissue, promoting healthy blood flow and tissue regeneration. PRP not only increases vaginal sensation and hydration but may also assist in muscle strengthening.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a blood product packed with growth factors that restore skin health and repair damaged tissue. In order to produce PRP, the patient must have their blood drawn. The PRP is then separated from the rest of the blood in a centrifuge, readying it for injection. PRP can be used as a topical skincare serum, an elixir for hair loss, or as an O Shot for vaginal rejuvenation.

Dr. Korman will conduct a thorough consultation and physical exam at his San Jose, Mountain View, Los Altos, or Carmel location to determine if you qualify for non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation. Women of all ages and backgrounds can benefit from enhanced sexual pleasure and function provided by the O Shot. Patients may consider treatment if they struggle with any of the following:

• Loss of sensitivity in the vaginal region
• An inability to achieve orgasm
• An inability to properly self-lubricate during intercourse
• Urinary stress incontinence
• Discomfort or pain during sex
• Weakened vaginal muscles

The O Shot is administered in a convenient two-step process. First, blood is drawn from the patient’s arm to procure the PRP. The blood is spun in a centrifuge to separate out the PRP from the rest of the blood. During the second phase of the treatment process, Dr. Korman will anesthetize the vagina and clitoris with a topical numbing agent before injecting the area strategically with PRP. Injections can be targeted toward specific areas, such as the vagina, vulva, and G spot. Once injected, PRP releases potent growth factors that enhance blood flow and replenish collagen, fortifying the vaginal tissue.

There is no downtime with the O Shot. This means that patients can immediately resume their normal schedules, returning to work, school, sightseeing, or shopping. It is even permissible to have sexual intercourse on the same day as the treatment. The full benefits of the O Shot develop over the course of the coming weeks and months.

There is no right age to undergo the O Shot. Some women will seek out treatment after childbirth while others will pursue the O Shot after experiencing menopause. Still others will need support for lubrication, sexual arousal, and being intimate at a younger age. Dr. Korman can help women of all ages to enjoy enhanced pleasure, peace of mind, and feminine wellness.

The O Shot is quick and painless. The whole process takes around just 30 minutes, including the time needed to draw your blood and process the PRP for your injections.

Each patient will require a different treatment plan based on their unique physiology and how their body responds to PRP. Many women feel satisfied with their results after a single treatment, while others will pursue additional appointments to build on their results.
