Here, we introduce YT Aesthetics, our med spa division dedicated to enhancing your natural beauty and confidence.

YT Aesthetics is a Level-Up spa and offers a comprehensive range of aesthetic treatments presented here.
Urinary incontinence is a well-recognized health condition among women in the United States. It is far more common than we realize. As a woman's body ages, it undergoes a host of changes. One in four women, or nearly 24% of women over the age of 18, experience episodes of leaking urine involuntarily. Stress urinary incontinence, the most common form of urinary incontinence, affects an estimated 15 million adult women in the United States. Pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause are major reasons for the increase seen in women as they age.
Many women don't feel comfortable talking about their struggle with urinary incontinence because of the perceived stigma associated with this condition. Some women feel ashamed. Others are embarrassed, as if it's their fault they have urinary incontinence. Many women don't talk about it because they don't know about their options. Billions of dollars are spent annually on women's health and wellness incontinence supplies and on procedures to improve a woman's quality of life.
Previously, women did not have many options to address this concern and other intimate concerns associated with postpartum changes and aging or intimate concerns that develop due to the treatments associated with illnesses like cancer, such as vaginal dryness and/or vaginal laxity, which can lead to painful intercourse. With advanced technologies available, women now have more options to address these issues safely and effectively. One of the newest technologies gaining widespread recognition to address incontinence is vaginal rejuvenation with EmpowerRF. EmpowerRF is a registered therapeutic device for the treatment of urinary incontinence and feminine intimate concerns such as sexual dysfunction. It is the most advanced platform available to treat a wide range of urogynecological concerns, including blood circulation, pain relief, stress, urge and mixed urinary incontinence, and pelvic floor weakness. It is a safe, FDA-cleared platform that allows Dr. Taguchi to provide customized solutions to improve tissue health and deliver life-changing women's wellness therapies by using state-of-the-art technologies, including formaV, VTone, Morpheus8V, and Tone. A combination of therapies using these modalities can be highly effective in treating various forms of urinary incontinence and other feminine conditions. EmpowerRF was designed with the idea in mind to empower women to reclaim their quality of life and restore their self-confidence without surgery or prolonged downtime.
Vaginal Rejuvenation
EmpowerRF addresses the prevalent yet often unspoken issue of urinary incontinence and other intimate concerns faced by women as they age, undergo post-partum changes, or undergo certain medical treatments. EmpowerRF is the first FDA-approved device that offers a breakthrough solution, utilizing advanced technology to provide safe and effective therapies for urinary incontinence and feminine intimate concerns such as laxity, vulvar atrophy, and vaginal dryness. This novel innovative technology, when used correctly, successfully treats every woman. .
With its cutting-edge platform, EmpowerRF offers tailored treatments for a range of urogynecological conditions, including pelvic floor weakness and sexual dysfunction. Dr. Taguchi utilizes state-of-the-art technologies like FormaV, VTone, Morpheus8V, and Tone to deliver personalized therapies that improve tissue health and enhance a woman's overall well-being. EmpowerRF enables women to reclaim their quality of life and confidence without the need for surgery or prolonged downtime, revolutionizing women's wellness and restoring self-assurance.
FormaV
FormaV is a state-of-the-art technology cleared by the Food and Drug Administration that uses bipolar radiofrequency energy (RF) to rejuvenate vaginal tissue and help with laxity and dryness. It does this by gently heating the vagina to increase blood flow and circulation in the vaginal wall and stimulates collagen and elastin production for greater support in deep tissues under the skin. FormaV also works to increase blood flow to the muscles in the pelvic floor and increase vaginal and bladder support. We may recommend some patients use VTone (see below) in combination with FormaV. The FormaV procedure is a series of three treatments given 4-6 weeks apart and could be described as a more organic treatment because it helps a woman's body rejuvenate itself naturally rather than using artificial means such as treatment with hormones or chemicals to obtain the desired results. .
There are several advantages to using FormaV over other treatments. FormaV is a safe and effective non-surgical alternative to bladder sling or vaginal mesh surgeries and commonly prescribed pessaries and drug treatments used for urinary incontinence. As well as becoming a more widely accepted treatment for symptoms associated with sexual dysfunction, including dryness and painful intercourse commonly associated with postpartum and menopause, FormaV replaces the more traditional questionable hormone therapies typically prescribed for menopausal symptoms. It is a painless procedure and doesn't require anesthesia. It can be done at the clinic in 20-30 minutes and doesn't require any downtime, so you can keep your daily routine. Dr. Taguchi recommends three treatments approximately 4-6 weeks apart after which time he will evaluate and discuss your progress.
VTone is a novel electrical muscle-stimulating (EMS) therapeutic device that is typically used in conjunction with FormaV to provide pelvic floor therapy by emitting electrical impulses to stimulate involuntary muscle contractions. It is far more effective than kegel exercises and pelvic floor exercises because, unlike these therapies, which isolate only a few of the muscles in the pelvic floor, VTone simultaneously stimulates all the muscles in the pelvic floor region. Nearly 80% of our patients say they tried doing kegel exercises but weren't sure they were isolating the correct muscle(s), didn't feel it was working, got disappointed and gave up, and learned to live with their incontinence. Similarly, many patients told us they've tried working with a pelvic floor therapist, but the exercises were too difficult. They took a lot of time at home to do, and they also gave up and learned to live with their incontinence.. These women no longer have to suffer in silence! VTone is FDA-recommended for the treatment of stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence. It is unique in that it provides intravaginal muscle stimulation and neuromuscular re-education to rehabilitate weak pelvic floor muscles. This is a gentle, non-invasive procedure that is done in the clinic with no anesthesia and no downtime. We recommend six treatment sessions, two 30-45 minute sessions each week for three weeks for a total of six treatments to start. After six treatments are completed, Dr. Taguchi will evaluate your progress. It is highly effective as women have seen an improvement in their pelvic floor support after 1-2 treatments, and it is the ideal treatment for women who are unsuccessful with kegel exercises and pelvic floor therapy or have limited motion in their back.
Morpheus8V is an unprecedented patented technology that utilizes the legendary benefits of Morpheus8 to treat urinary incontinence and more. While it is modeled to function like the original Morpheus8 device (see below), it is a minimally-invasive device designed specifically for treating the vaginal canal. It does not require anesthesia and uses fractional radiofrequency microneedling up to 3mm to remodel vaginal tissue to tighten, tone, and rejuvenate through induction of new collagen and elastin. It is very effective in tightening the vaginal canal and improving sexual sensation. It is a quick and effective procedure done in the clinic that requires some downtime. We recommend starting with three treatments 4-6 weeks apart, after which time Dr. Taguchi will evaluate your progress.
Tone is a non-invasive electrical muscle-stimulating (EMS) device that emits electrical pulses to stimulate involuntary muscle contractions. Tone targets specific muscle groups to restore the strength and tone of the muscle. It can be used to aid in the treatment of urinary incontinence by tightening and toning abdominal muscles, in particular lower abdominal muscles, with the correct placement. A combination of VTone and Tone can be effective in isolating and tightening muscles involved in bladder support. We recommend six treatment sessions, two 30-45 minute sessions each week for three weeks for a total of six treatments to start. After completing six treatments, Dr. Taguchi will evaluate your progress.
. ♦Tone is a customizable muscle toning treatment also used for body shaping. It delivers 288,000 pulses in just 30 minutes and can be used to tighten, strengthen, and sculpt different muscle groups of the body, including upper abdominal muscles, gluteal muscles (the buttocks), arm muscles, and thigh muscles to enhance tone. Ask our team about treatments with Tone to refine the look and improve the strength of your muscles!
Face/Body Contouring with Morpheus8 Rf-Microneedling

Our treatments address various concerns, from fine lines and wrinkles to skin texture and skin laxity to stretch marks and scarring, especially c-section scars and acne scars, rosacea, and much more, providing safe and effective results with minimal downtime.

Contact us today to schedule a free consultation and discover the beauty of non-surgical rejuvenation. Ask about our Pronox option for enhanced comfort during procedures.
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive procedure. We use a topical numbing cream, which is a very effective analgesic, and find this sufficient for pain tolerance. However, some patients are more sensitive or have anxiety and feel they need more than numbing cream for the procedure. For those patients, we have Pronox, a mixture of 50% nitrous oxide and 50% oxygen, to help with their comfort level. This mixture of light gas is fixed, and a patient regulates the amount of gas they inhale with a mouthpiece to help diminish pain, sensation, and anxiety without loss of consciousness so they remain awake during the procedure. The gas is rapidly cleared from your system within a few minutes, and there is no need for additional assistance to and from the clinic following the procedure.

IPL Laser
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology harnesses the power of broad-spectrum light to target various skin concerns, including unwanted pigment from sun damage, age spots, melasma, freckles, vascular lesions, spider veins, port-wine stains, and rosacea. Lumecca IPL is the most advanced laser in its class and the most powerful of its kind to tackle pigmented skin concerns. This versatile treatment option utilizes multiple wavelengths of light energy to penetrate the skin's surface, effectively breaking down excess melanin while stimulating collagen production. As a result, IPL not only fades dark spots and pigmented imperfections but also promotes overall skin rejuvenation and a more even skin tone..
One of the key advantages of Lumecca IPL is its ability to customize treatment parameters based on individual skin types and specific concerns. Advanced IPL devices such as Lumecca are equipped with adjustable settings, allowing fine-tuning of the intensity and pulse duration to achieve optimal results while minimizing downtime for patients. IPL treatments are non-invasive and typically require minimal recovery time, making them a convenient option for individuals seeking effective skin correction without the need for surgery or prolonged recovery periods. With consistent sessions, IPL can lead to noticeable improvements in skin texture, tone, and clarity, helping patients achieve a more radiant and youthful complexion. We recommend a minimum of 3 treatments to improve skin clarity. Skin-typing using the Fitzpatrick system is necessary to establish safe parameters for your skin type with IPL.
Laser Hair Removal
Unwanted hair is a persistent problem for both men and women. Traditional methods like shaving and waxing offer temporary relief for unwanted hair but often come with drawbacks such as discomfort, ingrown hairs, and frequent maintenance. DiolazeXL represents a specialized superior laser system meticulously crafted to excel in hair removal. Operating within a narrow wavelength range, DiolazeXL demonstrates exceptional efficacy in recognizing and targeting brown and black pigments associated with hair follicles, providing superior results compared to other laser hair removal systems. While a Broad Band Light (BBL) laser typically removes up to 63% of unwanted hair, DiolazeXL surpasses expectations, boasting an impressive hair removal rate of 84%. This remarkable efficiency underscores its status as a cutting-edge solution for achieving smooth, hair-free skin. DiolazeXL works for all skin types.

Skin Rejuvenation
Morpheus8/Morpheus8 Body
Dermatologists have known since the 1990s that microneedling is a proven technology to induce or increase the production of collagen and elastin by 400% under the skin in 6 months after completing treatments. The result is the generation of new skin tissue and underlying dermis for smoother, firmer, more toned skin. This process is known as skin rejuvenation or remodeling. Microneedling works by creating small pinpricks in the skin, known as micro-wounds, with tiny sterile needles that cause an inflammatory response. The small wounds trigger the healing process through the regeneration of collagen and elastin, which occur over time, thereby repairing the skin and making it regenerate itself. Research has shown that microneedling is an effective, minimally invasive way to improve the health of the skin.
After 1 Treatment (4 wks)
There are several microneedling devices, but the next-generation device which has superior technology compared to other devices and gives excellent results is the Morpheus8/Morpheus8 Body fractional remodeling device (SARD) by InMode. Morpheus8 is the only SARD device that combines microneedling with bipolar radiofrequency energy to remodel collagen and elastin and shrink adipose tissue under the skin. It is a minimally invasive device that has interchangeable tips with different microneedle configurations to target different areas of the face and body. The Morpheus8 headpiece contains 24 gold-coated microneedles, which can be used anywhere on the face and neck and other areas of the body. Morpheus8 Prime headpiece contains 12 needles of relatively smaller size that are used around hard-to-reach areas like the eyes; Morpheus8 Resurfacing headpiece contains 24 microneedles for resurfacing the outermost skin layer; Morpheus8 Body has a 40-pin headpiece and is used on larger areas of the body targeting tissue sequentially at multi-level treatment depths in milliseconds in a single cycle - the skin layer, under the skin and the adipose tissue - minimizing skin injury for safe, effective and customizable full-body treatments for skin resurfacing, adipose tissue remodeling, and face and body contouring.
One of the many concerns women have is the effect of childbirth on the appearance of their vulva. With childbirth and aging, the labia majora and minora can become stretched and loose, which is an aesthetic concern and can also lead to dysfunction. The standard treatment for reducing the size of the vulva is labiaplasty, a surgical procedure requiring a trip to the hospital, general anesthesia, and downtime for a lengthy recovery. Dr. Taguchi has incorporated Morpheus8 and Morpheus8V into his practice as an alternative to labiaplasty because Morpheus8/Morpheus8V microneedling can be used to shrink and tighten the vulva skin through remodeling without surgery, without anesthesia, and with minimal down-time. This starts with three treatments approximately 4-6 weeks apart, and maximum benefits can be seen within six months. Individual responses will vary.
There are several advantages to using Morpheus8 versus other procedures used to rejuvenate skin and address many aging skin concerns. It is safe to use on ALL skin types with little risk, unlike other resurfacing methods, and can be used to treat many areas of the body. Morpheus8 remodeling treatments work for many skin concerns, such as acne, scarring, big and small scars, new and old scars, cellulite, skin laxity, and much more. Women like to use Morpheus8 Body because, depending on the area of the body, it is a relatively painless procedure, is quick, doesn't require anesthesia, doesn't require a lot of downtime, and because of its ability to sequentially treat at 3 levels of tissue in millisecond intervals treatment times can be dramatically shorter. Our Mommy Makeover packages with Morpheus8 Body are ideal for women who have recently had a baby and have a c-section scar they want to minimize, have unwanted stretch marks or cellulite, or have stretched and loose belly skin they want to tighten. The Mommy Makeover combination of treatments can also include Tone, which works to tighten and strengthen abdominal muscles and is designed for women to restore their body to its pre-pregnancy state after giving birth. Mommy Makeovers are customizable, and Dr. Taguchi will work with you to develop a personalized package specially designed for your needs.
Our Morpheus8 Prime or Re-surfacing aesthetics packages address the concerns many women (and men!) have about aging. Several aesthetic packages are available and were designed with the idea in mind that women and men want to look and feel younger. Morpheus8 dramatically rejuvenates the skin by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, crow feet, lifting brows, festoons around the eyes, shrinking large pores, smoothing rough and bumpy skin, reducing rosacea, minimizing nasolabial folds and marionette lines, redefining the jawline, tightening loose skin around the neck and other areas of the face. RF microneedling is very effective in treating acne scars and chickenpox scars. There are several reasons to use Morpheus8 RF microneedling technology, and one thing is certain - Morpheus8 is an exceptional skin rejuvenation method available today, which improves a woman's quality of life.

Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive procedure. Generally, we recommend using a topical numbing cream and find this is sufficient for pain tolerance. However, some patients are more sensitive to pain or may have anxiety and feel they need more than numbing cream for analgesia. For those patients, we suggest also using Pronox, a mixture of 50% nitrous oxide and 50% oxygen, to help with their comfort level. This mixture of light gas is fixed, and a patient regulates the amount of gas they inhale with a mouthpiece to help diminish pain, sensation, and anxiety without loss of consciousness so they remain awake during the procedure.
When the procedure is done, the patient takes a few normal breaths, and the gas is removed quickly from their body, so there is no need for additional assistance to or from the clinic. Questions? Ask our team of care providers about Pronox.
