Viveve is a non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation therapy designed to treat symptoms of vaginal laxity, atrophy, decreased sensation and urinary incontinence. Viveve effectively stimulates tightening, growth and repair of vaginal tissues to resolve these symptoms through a painless 30 minute, single session treatment that applies controlled heating to vaginal tissues using radio frequency energy delivered via a surface cooling applicator. This allows adequate energy to be applied to stimulate tissue growth and healing without unpleasant heating sensation or pain. Tissue effects include increased vaginal wall thickness, blood flow, tightness, support and sensation. Clinical studies have demonstrated high satisfaction rates with improvement in vaginal tightness, urinary incontinence symptoms and sexual response. It may be used in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women.
Symptoms treated:
The procedure uses non-invasive radio frequency (RF) energy to heat the deep vaginal tissues that stimulates a healing and growth response and rebuild vaginal tissue. In the days to months following treatment, vaginal tissues experience increased growth of collagen, blood vessels and nerve growth that create a regenerative effect. The tissues supporting the bladder and urethra are strengthened diminishing both urine leakage due to activity (cough, laughter, exercise) and urgency. It achieves this in one treatment by applying significantly greater energy to the targeted tissue than earlier generation RF technologies could achieve while protecting sensitive surface tissues with cooling. It bypasses the surface tissue destruction created by laser vaginal treatments by projecting energy to the deeper tissues where growth and regeneration originates.
