What Is Empower RF?

Empower RF is a multi-functional platform for non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation, offering transformative therapies for women’s health in our Nashville, TN, office. Using advanced technology, it combines multiple modalities—muscle stimulation, microneedling, radiofrequency, and coagulation—delivered through four devices to address tightening, toning, lubrication, and incontinence. This device can treat a broad range of conditions, including pelvic floor weakness, mild incontinence, dryness, decreased sexual satisfaction, labial tightening/firming, and more.

The Four Modalities

V Tone

This treatment uses electromagnetic stimulation to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. These muscles support the uterus, bladder, bowel, and colon in functions like urination, bowel movements, sex, pregnancy, and delivery. Factors such as pregnancy, childbirth, and aging can weaken these muscles, leading to issues like urinary incontinence (leakage when sneezing or laughing), uncontrollable passing of air, and painful or diminished sexual experiences.

The V Tone device helps restore strength to the pelvic floor by simulating high-intensity Kegel exercises. In just a 20-minute session, it delivers the equivalent of hours of Kegel workouts. Think of the V Tone as a “vaginal gym,” where repeated muscle contractions tighten and strengthen the pelvic floor. Like any muscle, the more it’s trained, the stronger and more resilient it becomes.

What to Expect from V Tone

This is a quick, 20-minute in-office treatment. A numbing cream will be applied to the vaginal area and left to take effect for about 10 minutes. The device is then positioned at the entry point of the vagina, targeting the pelvic floor. The treatment is not uncomfortable, and most patients describe feeling a mild pulling sensation.

What is Recovery Like After V Tone?

Recovery is minimal. Sex can be resumed after 24 hours, and we recommend light activity—no running or heavy exercise—on the day of the treatment.

Spotting after V Tone is very rare, and most patients feel mild soreness for about 24 to 48 hours after the session.

This treatment is done as a series of six sessions, spaced apart by two to four weeks. Maintenance treatments are then done every 12 to 18 months.

Forma V

Forma V is a non-surgical treatment that uses radiofrequency heating to rejuvenate, tighten, and strengthen both the inner vaginal tissue and the outer vulva. The device delivers uniform deep heating to remodel tissue and can also tighten the outer lips, inner lips, and clitoral hood, enhancing stimulation and comfort during intercourse. This innovative device offers painless vaginal rejuvenation with minimal recovery time.

What to Expect from Forma V?

As another 20-minute in-office treatment, Forma V involves numbing cream sitting for about 10 minutes on the treatment area. The device will then be positioned so that RF energy passes through all four walls of your vagina, as well as the inner lips, clitoral hood, and outer lips for tightening and rejuvenation of the entire vulva. This is a painless process, with many patients saying they feel a warm sensation.

What is Recovery Like After Forma V?

Patients can resume sex activity after 48 hours. While heavy exercise and running should be avoided, light jogging is encouraged on the day of treatment.

Spotting after Forma can happen and lasts about 24 to 48 hours. Most patients feel mild soreness throughout that timeframe.

This treatment is done as a series of three sessions, spaced apart by one month. Maintenance treatments are then done every 12 to 18 months.

Morpheus8 V

Morpheus 8 V represents the most advanced technology for non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation. With Morpheus 8V, microneedling coupled with radiofrequency energy is performed on the internal vaginal wall. The result is tightening, toning, remodeling, lubrication, and an improvement in incontinence. This device allows for fractional tissue coagulation, which creates deep and narrow columns of tissue coagulation (deep heating). This stimulates the body’s natural healing response, which means increased collagen, elastin, and healing factors, as well as increased circulation and blood flow. This device is applied to the inner vagina, clitoral hood, inner lips, and outer lips for comprehensive rejuvenation.

Is a Morpheus8 V Treatment Painful?

The treatment is not painful. Topical numbing cream is applied to the area so patients do not feel discomfort during the procedure.

What to Expect from Morpheus8 V

This is a 15-minute in-office treatment that involves the application of a numbing cream that takes about 10 minutes to work. Patients say they experience a mild, warm sensation as the microneedling and RF energy delivery take place.

What is Recovery Like After Morpheus8 V?

Recovery is minimal, and sex can be resumed after 72 hours. Try for some light activity—but no running or heavy exercise—on the day of your treatment.

Spotting after Morpheus8 V can happen and lasts about two to three days. Most patients feel mild soreness for about 48 hours after their session. Aquaphor should be placed in and around the vaginal region for three days to prevent itching and irritation.

This treatment is performed in a series of three sessions, each spaced apart by one month. Maintenance treatments are then done every 12 to 18 months.

Should I Combine Treatments?

It depends on your concerns and issues. During your consult, we will determine which devices are best for your issues of concern.

What is the Cost?

Depending on what devices you have for your non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation, prices range from $2,000 to $6,500. Cost is best determined through a consult, and these devices are typically not covered by insurance.

AVIVA

AVIVA is a revolutionary treatment for loose skin of the vulva (labia majora, labia minora, clitoral hood, and mons). For women who are candidates, it can replace a traditional labiaplasty, eliminating the need for sutures and lengthy six-week restrictions. Using advanced radiofrequency technology, AVIVA tightens the skin of the inner and outer lips, as well as the mons pubis. With minimal incisions and a significantly faster recovery time compared to surgical labiaplasty, it provides an effective and convenient solution.

What to Expect from AVIVA

This 45-minute procedure is performed in the operating room and can be done while you’re awake or under anesthesia, depending on your preference. Numbing cream is applied to the treatment area, followed by a numbing injection for added comfort. The device is then positioned, and small, subcentimeter incisions are made to treat the desired areas, including the inner lips, outer lips, mons pubis, clitoral hood, or a combination of these. Thanks to the numbing medications, the procedure is completely painless.

Is this Treatment Painful?

The treatment is not painful. Topical numbing cream as well as injectable numbing medicine will be applied to the area to ensure patients do not feel discomfort during the procedure.

What is Recovery Like After AVIVA?

Patients can resume sex again after two weeks, and we recommend only light activity—no running or heavy exercise—for one week after the treatment. We also recommend tight Spanx or biker shorts to provide compression to the areas treated.

Spotting after AVIVA and mild bleeding can happen and lasts about two to three days. Most patients feel mild soreness for about 48 hours after the treatment. Aquaphor should be used in and around the vaginal region for three days to prevent itching and irritation.

This treatment is done in one session. It is not a series.

What is the Cost?

The cost of AVIVA treatments starts at $4,500. Exact pricing is best determined during a consultation, as these treatments are typically not covered by insurance.
