Empowered Wellness. Intimate Confidence.
Many women silently experience uncomfortable changes in their vaginal health—whether from aging, childbirth, or hormone shifts. You might notice vaginal laxity, dryness, pain during sex, or bladder leakage that wasn’t there before. These concerns aren’t just physical—they can affect confidence, intimacy, and quality of life. At Bonakdar Aesthetics in Newport Beach, we offer expert-led care to help you take back control with real, medically guided solutions.
Led by Dr. Monica Bonakdar, our boutique aesthetic practice offers non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation treatments designed to restore intimate wellness with discretion and care. Whether you’re looking for improved tone and tightness, enhanced sexual satisfaction, or relief from dryness or bladder leaks, we offer clinically effective options tailored to your needs.
Vaginal rejuvenation refers to a range of non-surgical procedures and surgical treatments that help improve the appearance, function, and feel of the vaginal area. These treatments address both internal and external concerns—including vaginal laxity, dryness, urinary incontinence, and changes to the labia minora or labia majora. Some women also experience discomfort during sexual intercourse or strenuous exercise due to excess skin or changes in vaginal tissue.
Our treatments stimulate collagen production, restore vaginal strength, and improve tone in the vaginal canal and outer labia, helping women regain confidence in their sexual activity, appearance, and overall wellness.
ThermiVa is a non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation treatment that uses gentle radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen and restore tightness and elasticity to the vaginal tissue. It can improve vaginal laxity, enhance sexual function, reduce dryness, and address mild stress urinary incontinence. ThermiVa is performed comfortably in-office, requires no anesthesia, and has no downtime. Most patients complete a series of three treatments spaced about a month apart for optimal results.
The O-Shot (Orgasm Shot) uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your own blood to enhance sexual function, sensitivity, and lubrication. By injecting PRP into key areas like the clitoris and upper vaginal wall, the O-Shot promotes tissue healing, increases blood flow, and helps many women experience stronger orgasms and improved intimacy. This treatment is especially helpful for women dealing with reduced sexual desire, painful intercourse, or postmenopausal dryness. It’s performed in-office with minimal discomfort and no downtime.
Women choose vaginal rejuvenation to address a variety of concerns, including vaginal laxity following childbirth or aging, pain or reduced pleasure during sexual intercourse, persistent vaginal dryness, bladder leakage, and changes in the appearance of the labia. These issues often lead to self-consciousness and discomfort that can affect daily life and intimacy. Our treatments aim to restore confidence and comfort by improving both the function and aesthetics of the vaginal area.
Benefits of Vaginal Rejuvenation
Our treatments are tailored to support a wide range of physical and emotional benefits:
Women who have experienced vaginal childbirth, menopause, or natural aging are often good candidates for vaginal rejuvenation. Those dealing with painful intercourse, persistent dryness, or bladder leakage may also benefit. Ideal candidates are in good physical health, have realistic expectations, and are seeking non-invasive options to improve vaginal tone, function, or appearance. Dr. Bonakdar will review your medical history and goals to ensure the treatment is appropriate for you.
Preparing for vaginal rejuvenation typically requires minimal effort. Dr. Bonakdar will provide detailed guidance based on the specific treatment. Generally, patients are advised to avoid sexual intercourse for 24–48 hours prior, stay hydrated, and avoid medications that could increase bleeding or bruising. If a sedative or local anesthesia is planned, arranging for transportation may be necessary. Most importantly, staying in good overall health and communicating openly with our team ensures a safe and effective experience.
Non-surgical treatments like ThermiVa and the O-Shot are performed in-office and typically take under 45 minutes. ThermiVa uses controlled radiofrequency energy delivered through a small wand to gently heat and stimulate the vaginal tissue. The O-Shot involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to isolate platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and injecting it into targeted areas such as the clitoral hood and vaginal walls to promote tissue regeneration.
These procedures are designed to be comfortable, with most patients describing the experience as warm and relaxing. No sedation or general anesthesia is needed. For patients considering surgical procedures such as labiaplasty or clitoral hood reduction, Bonakdar Aesthetics will facilitate referrals to trusted, board-certified surgeons and support you throughout the consultation and decision-making process.
Most women begin noticing improvements in vaginal tightness, sensation, and comfort within days of treatment. These results continue to build over several weeks as collagen production increases and blood flow improves. Patients commonly report improved self-confidence, more satisfying intimacy, and a reduction in dryness or bladder control issues. With proper care, results from treatments like the O-Shot and ThermiVa can last 9–12 months or more, with many patients returning for annual maintenance.
Recovery from non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation is typically quick and straightforward. Mild swelling or sensitivity may be present for a day or two, but most patients return to normal routines immediately. Sexual activity and activities involving heat or friction (such as hot tubs or intense exercise) should be paused for 48–72 hours. For surgical procedures, downtime is longer. You may need one to two weeks of limited activity, with a four to six week delay before resuming sexual intercourse or strenuous workouts.
Aftercare Guidelines
After your treatment, we recommend wearing breathable clothing, avoiding scented hygiene products, and gently cleansing the area with mild soap and water. Refraining from tight-fitting underwear and avoiding friction in the area helps minimize irritation. Dr. Bonakdar will provide specific aftercare instructions and follow-up appointments to ensure optimal healing and comfort. Monitoring for any unusual discomfort and staying in communication with our team ensures you feel supported every step of the way.
Costs for vaginal rejuvenation treatments vary based on the procedure and treatment plan recommended for you. Non-surgical options such as ThermiVa are often packaged in a series for optimal results, while the O-Shot may be performed as a single session with annual maintenance. Surgical referrals include additional consultations and surgical fees. As these treatments are elective and not typically covered by insurance, our team will provide a comprehensive estimate during your consultation.
Many women enhance their results by pairing vaginal rejuvenation with other services that support full-body confidence. These may include hormone optimization therapy, laser treatments to address skin texture or pigmentation, injectable treatments for facial balance, and non-invasive skin tightening. By approaching rejuvenation as a comprehensive experience, we help patients feel more aligned in both physical comfort and aesthetic presence.
