Vaginal Rejuvenation

The Viveve treatment (formally known as Geneveve) is the current state-of-the-art for non-invasive restoration of feminine intimate function, allowing impressive improvement in function and performance through a comfortable, 30 minute office procedure. The Viveve treatment is great for women experiencing Stress Urinary Incontinence (releasing small amounts of urine when coughing, sneezing, or working out), laxity or looseness of the vaginal wall (lack of tightness), and discomfort or painful intercourse due to lack of lubrication.

Surgical Technique

Viveve uses safe, deep heating of the tissues using radio-frequency energy to stimulate the body’s own renewal response and gradually restore healthy collagen. This gives the soft tissue a more youthful tone and resiliency. The procedure is proven to last at least 12 months and only requires one- 30 minute treatment.

What To Expect

Prior to your Viveve treatment you will have a consultation with our nurse practitioner to determine if you are a candidate for this procedure. The procedure takes about 30 minutes and is performed by one of our female medical staff members.

Treatment Timing

Can I receive treatment early post partum or during menstruation?

Recently post partum patients should first consult with their OB/GYN to make sure they are ready to receive a vaginal treatment. It is recommended that patients schedule their appointment when they aren’t menstruating. This not only makes the procedure more comfortable for you, but it also ensures that you get the best results from your treatment.

After Treatment

It is recommended to abstain from sexual intercourse for 48 hours after your procedure. Other than that, the procedure is an out patient procedure and allows you to go back to daily activities or work immediately following your appointment.
