Reawaken Sexual Health
What is the O-Shot?
As women age, many experience a decline in sexual functioning and pleasure due to decreased blood flow and vaginal dryness. The O-Shot aims to revitalize your sexuality and urinary wellness by utilizing platelet-rich plasma derived from your own blood. This plasma contains growth factors that promote new blood vessel growth, collagen production, and tissue repair when injected into the vaginal area.
Powered by Platelet-Rich Plasma
What is the O-Shot procedure like?
The O-Shot® is a quick, painless, and non-surgical procedure. A small amount of blood is extracted from the patient, spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the plasma from the blood, and then injected into the vaginal area. Plasma contains growth factors, which help to contribute to the healing and recovery of tissue and cells in the body. While plasma exists naturally in your body, sometimes concentration is needed in order to ensure more plasma goes into one specific part of the body to boost healing outcomes.
Tailored to Your Symptoms & Goals

A Powerful Duo
Combining the O-Shot With ThermiVa
The O-Shot is a highly effective treatment that provides even more robust benefits when combined with ThermiVa. ThermiVa is a vaginal revitalization treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to gently heat the vaginal tissue. This controlled heating promotes new collagen production to improve vaginal tightness, lubrication, and sensation.
ThermiVa and the O-Shot can provide a synergistic effect when combined. The two treatments address different aspects of vaginal rejuvenation:
ThermiVa benefits:
- Tightens the vaginal canal
- Improves lubrication and moisture levels
- Enhances friction and sensitivity during sex
O-Shot benefits:
- Increases blood flow to the vaginal area
- Promotes new cell and vessel growth
- Enhances ability to achieve orgasm
