Is Egg Freezing Right for You?
If you would like to understand if you should freeze your eggs in the near future and would like to learn about the process, we are here to help.  Schedule an egg freezing assessment with Dr. Gayllyn Faust-Rakos to understand your fertility baseline and next steps; and your insurance covers our assessments.

Everyone is different, but there are four main questions to ask yourself when considering egg freezing. (1) how old are you (2) how many children would be in your ideal family (3) how old you want to be when you start a family (4) how old you will be when you have your first child? 
Schedule an egg freezing assessment with our Gynecologist, Dr. Gayllyn Faust-Rakos to understand your fertility baseline and next steps.
Your insurance covers our assessments.

What is the ThermiVa®?
ThermiVa® is a non-surgical, safe, and effective procedure that uses radiofrequency heat to tighten loose, sagging skin and increase blood flow and nerve sensitivity in the vaginal area.

What are the benefits of the ThermiVa®?
  • Vaginal and labial laxity
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Urinary incontinence and overactive bladder
  • Painful sex

How is it performed?
During the procedure, a small wand is slowly moved over the areas of concern, gradually heating the tissue. The procedure takes less than an hour, during which most women report feeling only a warm sensation and no pain. There is no downtime once completed, women can return to exercise and sexual activity immediately.

What is the O-Shot®?
The O-Shot® is a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure that can help improve a woman’s sexual desire and orgasm, decrease urinary incontinence and treat a chronic skin condition called lichen sclerosis.  Up to half of women experience low sexual desire and many others experience issues with arousal, lubrication, and orgasm. The O-Shot® uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) that contains growth factors from the woman’s own blood and is injected into the clitoris and vaginal wall. This increases blood flow, nerve sensitivity, and collagen formation in the area, leading to improved sexual function.
What are the benefits of the O-Shot®?

This injection can increase a woman’s sexual desire and arousal, as well as improve the number or quality of her orgasms. In addition, this procedure can help with
  • Leaking urine
  • Painful sex
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Decrease symptoms and long-term consequences of lichen sclerosus

How is it performed?
Blood is drawn from the patient and then using a special double-spin process the red blood cells are removed, leaving the plasma which is full of growth factors. Numbing cream is then placed onto the areas that will be injected, and a lidocaine injection is performed to ensure there is minimal to no discomfort during the procedure. The PRP is then injected into the clitoris and vaginal wall. The procedure takes less than an hour.
To see if either of these treatments is right for you, call to schedule a
