The Aviva procedure is fast and less invasive than other treatments for the same issues. After the area is anesthetized, small entry points to the skin are made and a hand piece is put under the skin to deliver the radiofrequency. The radiofrequency energy stimulates the body to produce collagen and elastic, which tightens tissue and loose labial skin. Over the next few months, the labia shrinks.

In order to minimize discomfort, the area will be numbed prior to treatment. After treatment, most patients experience only mild discomfort, swelling and redness that subside after 1-2 weeks. Most patients see a significant improvement in three months after treatment, with full results being seen six months after treatment.

There is no need for stitches or a long recovery. Most patients return to their normal routine in a few days, after a few days of avoiding strenuous exercise or long periods of time on their feet.

Some women are born with a large or irregular labia, while others experience weakened vaginal tissue as they get older due to hormonal changes or childbirth.  Women look to vaginal rejuvenation for two main reasons. The first is discomfort or irritation when wearing tight clothes, exercising, or during sexual intercourse. The other is that women are bothered by the appearance of the labia, particularly after changes with childbirth and aging.  Aviva permanently shrinks and tightens the tissues using the power of radiofrequency making it the perfect alternative to surgery. Women who do not want to undergo a surgical procedure now have another option.
