With no need for traditional surgery or excessive downtime, these safe and non-invasive treatments using EmpowerRF are improving the lives of women everywhere.
What Is EmpowerRF?
EmpowerRF is a multi-functional, in-office system that provides neuromuscular re-education and strengthening for pelvic floor issues and non-invasive treatments for vaginal rejuvenation and other women’s wellness issues. EmpowerRF involves using various handpieces that can be customized to each patient’s needs.
What Conditions Can the EmpowerRF Treat?
The multi-functional EmpowerRF workstation has everything Dr. Altamira needs to design a treatment plan for your unique needs. The innovative new platform is capable of everything from skin tightening to non-hormonal vaginal rejuvenation treatments.
EmpowerRF can improve the following conditions:
- Urinary leakage or incontinence
- Urinary stress, pain, or excessive urge
- Pain or decreased pleasure during intercourse
- Vaginal dryness, laxity, or loss of sensitivity
- Weak abdominal or pelvic floor muscles
- Various menopausal symptoms
- Loose or sagging skin
How Does EmpowerRF Work?
EmpowerRF utilizes the following complementary energies to accomplish precise and targeted therapies that help to increase patient wellness and self-confidence without the need for surgery or prolonged downtime:
- Intravaginal electrical muscle stimulation (EMS)
- Bipolar radiofrequency (RF) for volumetric deep heating
- Sub-dermal fractional microneedling and coagulation
- Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS)
The EmpowerRF workstation comes with a diverse set of tools, each capable of unique treatments. This versatile device provides vaginal rehabilitation services through the AVIVA, FormaV, VTone, and Morpheus8 for body procedures available at our office.
Aviva
EmpowerRF Aviva offers a minimally invasive approach to tightening or reshaping the vulva. Unlike traditional surgery, Aviva uses heat and radiofrequency (RF) energy to shrink the soft tissue of the exterior genital area.
An excellent alternative to surgical labiaplasty, Aviva can reduce the discomfort of loose skin and reshape your most intimate areas without the risk of scarring.
FormaV
If you’re dealing with issues such as stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or vaginal dryness, then FormaV may be the solution for you. This comfortable internal vaginal treatment uses volumetric deep heating to offer a range of therapeutic benefits.
It can help increase blood circulation, strengthen the muscles of the pelvic floor, reduce vaginal laxity, and more. Don’t hesitate to contact Dr. Altamira to learn more about whether FormaV is right for you.
Vtone
Vtone offers an innovative new approach to rehabilitating weakened muscles in the pelvic floor. This intravaginal device uses electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to address multiple types of urinary incontinence.
Vtone can go a long way toward restoring your confidence by reducing bladder leakage, increasing urinary control, and even enhancing sexual sensation.
Morpheus8V
While the Morpheus8 offers advanced skin-tightening solutions, the Morpheus8V is designed explicitly for vaginal skin rejuvenation. Using radiofrequency energy and advanced microneedling technology, the Morpheus8V can be customized to address various issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who Is a Candidate for EmpowerRF Treatments?Ideal candidates for EmpowerRF treatments are women in overall good health who can maintain realistic expectations regarding the results of their procedure. While EmpowerRF is most beneficial to women seeking treatment for sexual dysfunction, pain relief, and urinary incontinence, these treatments can also benefit patients who have the following health concerns:
Are There Any Risks with EmpowerRF Treatments?EmpowerRF treatments are safe, effective, and relatively low-risk. Common side effects after these treatments may include pain, redness, swelling, and changes in skin pigmentation. Within a day after treatment, these side effects should disappear on their own. However, Dr. Altamira is available for any patient who experiences complications following their EmpowerRF treatments. How Long Does Recovery from EmpowerRF Treatments Take?While each patient’s recovery experience will vary, there is very little to no downtime needed after EmpowerRF treatments. We recommend patients avoid heavy physical activity such as running, high-intensity exercises, and sex for at least 24 hours. However, after a day, most patients return to their regular routines. How long does an EmpowerRF treatment take?An EmpowerRF treatment typically takes 30-45 minutes, depending on the specific modalities used (e.g., FormaV, VTone, or Morpheus8V). It’s a comfortable, in-office procedure that requires no anesthesia. How many EmpowerRF sessions should I get for optimal results?Most patients benefit from three to six treatments a few weeks apart. The exact number depends on your goals and symptoms. Dr. Altamira will create a customized treatment plan during your consultation. How soon can I expect to see results from EmpowerRF?Some patients notice improvement after one treatment, particularly in moisture and mild tightening. However, optimal results typically develop gradually over several weeks, with continued improvement following each session as collagen builds and muscles strengthen. What should I expect during my vaginal rejuvenation appointment?During the appointment, a small, specialized applicator is gently inserted into the vaginal canal or placed externally to deliver radiofrequency energy or electrical muscle stimulation. You may feel a warm sensation or mild muscle contractions, but the treatment is usually very comfortable. How long do the results last?Results can last 12-18 months or more, depending on the treatment modality and individual factors, such as age, hormone levels, and lifestyle. Maintenance treatments can also help extend benefits. How should I prepare before my appointment?Preparation is minimal. You may be asked to avoid sexual activity 24 hours prior and ensure the treatment area is clean and free of lotions or creams. Dr. Altamira will give you specific instructions based on your health and treatment goals. Can I have vaginal rejuvenation while on my period?It is generally recommended to schedule your treatment outside of your menstrual cycle to ensure optimal comfort and hygiene. If you happen to start your period unexpectedly, contact us to discuss whether rescheduling is necessary. Can vaginal rejuvenation improve intimacy or sexual satisfaction?Yes. EmpowerRF treatments can enhance vaginal tightness, natural lubrication, sensitivity, and muscle control, all of which may lead to improved sexual function and confidence during intimacy. Will my partner notice a difference?Many women report that their partners do notice a difference in tightness and sensitivity after treatment. However, results are subtle and natural, aimed at enhancing function and comfort rather than creating dramatic physical changes. |
