Votiva Radio Frequency

Votiva is an FDA-approved device that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy waves to heat and stimulate the cells of the vagina and vulva (external skin) to increase collagen and elastin fiber production. As a result, vaginal moisture, blood flow and elasticity increases.

Votiva is a painless, non-laser treatment that provides rejuvenation to both external and internal vaginal tissues without the need for surgery. It works as an adjunct to Kegel exercises (tightening of the muscles of the pelvic floor to increase muscle tone).

The Votiva has two hand pieces, Forma and Fractora, which have been cleared by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are used during dermatological procedures.

Votiva uses a laser that emits heat so there is virtually no pain. You may feel a mild heating sensation and some users mention mild discomfort as the device is inserted for the first time. The majority of patients have 2-3 sessions, however, most notice a difference after only 1 treatment.
