How a leading clinic Elixir Skin Fitness is tackling taboo topics and helping women address their intimate wellness concerns.
Self-care is something we all make time for, but when was the last time you stopped to consider your intimate wellbeing?
Once a taboo topic, South Australian women are now placing heightened importance on their vaginal care – and as revolutionary treatments that help to successfully treat common issues (think dryness, sensitivity and incontinence) become more readily available, down-there-care is something that is now more attainable, and commonplace, than ever before.
To promote intimate wellness, award-winning South Australian clinic, Elixir Skin Fitness, has introduced two new treatments, the Empower RF and O-Shot, to its roster of holistic procedures, both designed to target the feel and functionality of your private parts.
A 2016 government study found that one in three women who’ve given birth report issues with incontinence. The Empower RF tackles this concern head-on, strengthening weakened pelvic floors through a non-invasive treatment that emits bipolar and submucosal frequencies, plus electrical muscle stimulation. This combination of pulses boosts collagen production, increasing elasticity and tissue development – two key components in restoring vaginal strength.
Performed in-office at Elixir, the treatment has little to no downtime and is tailored to you, with treatment time and frequency altered to suit your needs.
Dryness is also something that affects most Australian women, with Healthdirect reporting that more than 50 percent of females moving through menopause experience this problem. Mainly caused by a dip in estrogen production as your hormones shift, dryness not only causes discomfort but also impacts your sexual wellness. Both the Empower RF and the O-Shot help to ease these symptoms.
The O-Shot is a patented treatment that improves lubrication and sensitivity through an increase in Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). This regenerative treatment takes up to 30 minutes and uses plasma isolated from the patient’s blood. The PRP is then injected into different parts of the vagina, improving blood flow and nerve endings, as well as promoting collagen, elastin and blood vessel production. When combined with Empower RF, this treatment increases lubrication plus addresses problems such as incontinence and sexual satisfaction.
Taking a rounded approach to patients’ self-care is what Elixir Skin Fitness and its founder, leading dermal therapist, Rose Bonasera, do best. At Elixir, holistic skin and wellness programs are tailored to your body – a focus that has seen the clinic become a go-to for all areas of self-care.
