The Viveve System uses cryogen-cooled monopolar radiofrequency (CMRF) technology to stimulate the body’s natural collagen formation process. This is a non-surgical treatment primarily used for treating the symptoms of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM), including vaginal laxity, urinary incontinence, and sexual function issues.
During a Viveve treatment, the device sends gentle pulses of heat via radiofrequency energy into the tissue of the vaginal wall, stimulating the body’s natural collagen formation process. The device’s cryogen-cooling component protects the sensitive surface layers of the vaginal wall during treatment.
This treatment is typically performed in a single session, taking about 30-60 minutes, and doesn’t require anesthesia or any significant downtime post-treatment. However, as always, the specifics can vary depending on the individual and the severity of the condition being treated.
