Introduction to Vtone

Pelvic floor health is crucial for various bodily functions and overall quality of life. Women, in particular, can experience pelvic floor dysfunction due to multiple factors such as childbirth, aging, or strenuous physical activity. Issues like urinary incontinence, pelvic muscle weakness, vaginal laxity, and diminished sexual satisfaction can significantly impact daily life. This is where VTone steps in, providing a non-surgical, highly effective solution to these common problems.

VTone is an advanced vaginal rejuvenation technology that utilizes Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) through a specialized applicator. This applicator, gently inserted into the vaginal canal, emits waves that stimulate and contract the muscles in the pelvic floor region. This process not only strengthens the pelvic floor muscles but also tightens the vaginal canal, offering a comprehensive remedy for urinary incontinence and other pelvic health issues.

Before undergoing VTone treatment, you’ll have an initial consultation with a specialist at Ascent Aesthetics. This session will assess your pelvic health, discuss your concerns, and determine if VTone is the right solution. During this consultation, feel free to ask questions about the procedure, expected outcomes, and any necessary preparation.

To ensure the best possible results, it’s recommended to follow specific pre-treatment guidelines:

• Hydration: Maintain good hydration in the days leading up to your treatment.
• Avoid Certain Medications: Your doctor suggests avoiding certain drugs or supplements that interfere with your treatment. 
• Comfortable Clothing: To make the procedure go more smoothly, dress comfortably on the day of the therapy. 

The Procedure: Step-by-Step

1. Arrival and Preparation:
   • You will be welcomed by the kind team at Ascent Aesthetics and shown a cozy, private treatment area. 
   • You’ll be asked to change into a gown and be comfortable on the treatment table.

1. Applicator Insertion:
   • The specialist will gently insert the VTone applicator into your vaginal canal. The applicator is designed to be comfortable and non-invasive.
   • A conductive gel may be applied to ensure optimal conductivity and comfort during the EMS process.

1. Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS):
   • Once the applicator is in place, the EMS waves will begin. These waves stimulate pelvic floor muscles, mimicking the natural contractions during Kegel exercises with greater precision and efficiency.
   • The sensation is typically described as a mild tingling or pulsing; most patients find it quite comfortable.

1. Duration:
   • Each VTone session typically lasts around 30 minutes. During this time, you can relax, read a book, or even nap.

Post-Treatment Care

Following your VTone session, you can return to your regular activities. Because there is little to no downtime, it’s an excellent choice for busy people. Nonetheless, adhere to these post-care recommendations to optimize the treatment’s advantages: 

• Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help your body recover and function optimally.
• Avoid Strenuous Activities: For the first 24 hours post-treatment, avoid strenuous physical activities or heavy lifting.
• Follow-Up Appointments: Keep all scheduled follow-up appointments so your doctor can assess your progress and modify your treatment plan. 

Immediate and Long-Term Benefits

One of the most exciting aspects of VTone treatment is the quick onset of noticeable results. Many patients report improving their symptoms within a few weeks of their first session. The key benefits of VTone include:

• Strengthened Pelvic Floor Muscles: Enhanced muscle tone and strength, leading to better support for pelvic organs.
• Reduced Urinary Incontinence: Significant reduction in urinary incontinence episodes, improving confidence and quality of life.
• Tightened Vaginal Canal: Enhanced vaginal tightness, which can contribute to improved sexual satisfaction for both partners.
• Overall Pelvic Health: A holistic improvement in pelvic health, contributing to better posture, reduced back pain, and enhanced core stability.

Optimal Results with Multiple Sessions

While some improvement can be felt after the initial treatment, optimal results are typically achieved after several sessions. A healthcare expert will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and goals. Most patients benefit from 6-8 sessions a week or two apart.

Long-Lasting Effects

Long-lasting benefits can be obtained from VTone, particularly when paired with frequent pelvic floor exercises and a healthy lifestyle. To maintain the advantages over time, periodic maintenance sessions can be suggested.
