How EmpowerRF Works

EmpowerRF uses radiofrequency energy to heat the vaginal tissues and stimulate the formation of new collagen and elastin through a thermal remodeling process.2 This effectively makes the treated tissue more elastic and supple while simultaneously strengthening the surrounding muscles, especially beneficial for enhanced bladder control.3


One of the best aspects of EmpowerRF is that it can layer multiple modalities on the EmpowerRF device, including FormaV, MorpheusV, VTone, Evolve Tone and Aviva to allow uniquely customized treatments to each individual and target a range of concerns from bladder leakage to dryness. Learn more about the different modalities below:

FormaV

FormaV is an RF treatment applied both inside and outside of the vagina. This soothing treatment has been equated to a hot stone massage and can reduce stress urinary incontinence and vaginal dryness.

MorpheusV

MorpheusV is a noninvasive RF treatment that can address wrinkled, dry, and/or sagging skin and help resolve the dryness and laxity that can contribute to painful intercourse, while also reducing urinary incontinence.

VTone

The VTone applicator has a two-sided tip that once inserted comfortably into the vaginal canal is designed to generate intravaginal electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to correct urge, stress, and mixed urinary incontinence and rehabilitate and strengthen weak pelvic floor muscles.

Evolve Tite + Tone

Evolve tone can be added to any EmpowerRF treatment for the added benefit of tightening abdominal muscles. This extra abdominal support can enhance other treatment modalities and not only improve the appearance of the stomach but provide improved urinary function and control.

Aviva

Also referred to as a non-surgical labiaplasty, Aviva is for women looking to achieve cosmetic vaginal enhancements in addition to restoring function. This 20-minute RF treatment is ideal for women wanting a beautiful and natural-looking result with minimal-to-no scarring and less downtime than a surgical labiaplasty.

What to Expect During Your EmpowerRF Treatment 

After entering one of our private treatment rooms at the Bucky Body Center, you will lay down on a comfortable treatment bed and one of our expertly trained nurse clinicians will apply the EmpowerRF device internally for approximately 15 minutes and then externally to the labia, clitoral area, perineum, and urethra for roughly another 15 minutes.

Preparing for and Recovery from Your EmpowerRF Treatment 

There is absolutely no preparation necessary for an EmpowerRF treatment, and there is no recovery time required afterwards. It’s a simple procedure and you’re free to carry on with your day as you normally would!
