We moisturize, exfoliate, serum, SPF—and then repeat. When it comes to preserving the youth and glow of our complexions, women are all in. But what about the skin down there? Yes, we’re talking about your vagina.
Here’s the truth: vaginal tissue ages, too—and it doesn’t matter whether you’ve had kids or not. Over time, everything from collagen loss to hormonal shifts can affect the look, feel, and function of our most sacred area. And unlike your face, there’s no night cream for that.
On this deeply empowering and eye-opening episode of Biohack-HERS, HigherDOSE Founders Lauren Berlingeri and Katie Kaps head to Vibrance BPC in NYC to meet with Dr. Helen Hsieh and try a high-tech biohacking treatment that’s bringing serious glow-up energy to women’s sexual health: ThermiVA—aka, radiofrequency vaginal rejuvenation.
What is Vaginal Rejuvenation?
ThermiVA is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment designed to tighten, tone, and stimulate rejuvenation in both the internal and external vaginal tissues. Think of it as a collagen-boosting facial… but for your most intimate skin. Using radiofrequency energy delivered through a slim wand, ThermiVA heats the tissue to a therapeutic temperature—without any pain or downtime—to restore elasticity, increase moisture, and even enhance sensation and orgasmic response.
Let’s just say: it’s giving next-level self-care.
Why It Matters: Women's Sexual Health Is (Finally) Having Its Moment
As Dr. Hsieh explains, women’s sexual wellness has long been dismissed, under-researched, and underserved in traditional medicine. Issues like vaginal dryness, laxity, painful sex, and urinary incontinence are often brushed off as “just something that happens” with age or childbirth.
But here’s the thing: we don’t have to settle for that. And we certainly don’t have to suffer in silence.
ThermiVA offers women the opportunity to take back control of their sexual wellness—without surgery, without hormones, and without shame. In fact, it’s one of the few treatments that can actually increase vaginal sensation, improve pelvic floor support, and even help women experience orgasm for the very first time.
What the Treatment Actually Feels Like
Let’s get into the juicy details. The procedure involves a long, slender wand with a heated tip that’s gently inserted into the vagina. The heat (set to a toasty 113°F) is carefully regulated and applied with continuous movement, ensuring comfort throughout the entire 20-minute internal treatment. The wand is then used externally to tighten the outer tissues and enhance overall appearance.
Lauren and Katie were surprised by how comfortable, non-invasive, and even relaxing the experience was. No anesthesia, no downtime, and no awkward stirrups. Just a warm, effective treatment that left them feeling more connected to their bodies—and totally intrigued by the results.
The Results? Mind-Blowing.
Let’s not tiptoe around it: 70% of women have reportedly never experienced an orgasm. That stat alone should spark a revolution—and technologies like ThermiVA are leading the charge.
The treatment can:
- Increase blood flow and sensation
- Boost natural lubrication
- Improve urinary control and pelvic tone
- Tighten vaginal and vulvar tissue
- Enhance pleasure during sex (yes, that kind)
It's not just a luxury—it's a powerful tool for reclaiming our bodies, our pleasure, and our sense of confidence.
This Isn’t Vanity—It’s Vitality
Whether you're navigating postpartum recovery, peri-menopause, or just feeling disconnected from your sensual self, vaginal rejuvenation is about more than just looks—it’s about feeling whole, feeling seen, and feeling like yourself again.
Lauren and Katie’s takeaway? ThermiVA isn’t just a biohack—it’s a permission slip to prioritize your pleasure. And after experiencing the treatment for themselves, they left feeling informed, empowered, and ready to shout it from the (yoni-steamed) rooftops.
Because your vagina deserves just as much TLC as your face. Maybe even more.
