Uvisa's Solution
Uvisa is developing an innovative therapeutic vulvovaginal device that utilises the antimicrobial properties of light to offer a safe, effective, drug-free solution to tackle imbalances in the vaginal microbiome.
Its key advantage is that it targets both yeast (VVC) and bacteria (BV), meaning a correct diagnosis is not required for the device to be effective. It also works within a day, and it’s reusable.
Sufferers will simply buy the device directly from a pharmacy or store (or have it prescribed by a doctor, depending on location), take it home, insert it and switch it on, go about their daily life for the 30 minute treatment duration, remove the device, wash it and store it in a safe place ready for the next time that the symptoms arise.
Combined with a connected digital tool that provides symptom checking, health tracking & monitoring, as well as access to high quality medically-reviewed educational content, specialists and community. Uvisa is offering the first complete solution specifically focused on addressing the challenges associated with BV & VVC.
