Vaginal Rejuvenation with Non-surgical by Viveve

Are you suffering from the negative side effects of vaginal aging? As women age, vaginal tissues can begin to loosen, just like skin in the rest of the body. Vaginal aging is caused by a loss of collagen, which leads to laxity, especially around the vaginal opening. Unfortunately, vaginal aging can cause a lot of negative side effects on your health and well-being, like urinary incontinence, dryness of the vagina, and difficulty reaching orgasm.

One way of improving vaginal laxity is through traditional vaginal rejuvenation surgery. While incredibly effective at combating vaginal laxity, traditional vaginal rejuvenation is still an invasive surgery that can be painful, as well as require downtime for healing.

Dr. Stephen Metzinger at Aesthetic Surgical Associates in Metairie, LA is proud to offer non-surgical Viveve™. Viveve™ is an innovative non-surgical treatment for vaginal laxity that requires minimal downtime and no anesthesia! Viveve™ is clinically proven to safely rejuvenate the vaginal area, improving sexual satisfaction and treating incontinence in women.

What is Urinary Incontinence?

Urinary incontinence, also known as loss of bladder control, is a common problem amongst men and women. Research shows that at least half of older women are affected by incontinence. Incontinence can be incredibly embarrassing, striking at work, while you exercise, or during a social event.

Loss of bladder control can also occur in women who have experienced stress in the muscles around the bladder from weight gain, pregnancies, vaginal childbirths, or even sports injuries. In these situations, it is not uncommon for women to have bladder leakage when coughing, laughing, or lifting something heavy.

What is Vaginal Laxity?

Vaginal laxity is a common condition that is typically caused by childbirth, lifestyle, genetics, and aging. As we mentioned earlier, vaginal laxity occurs when collagen weakens, causing your vaginal tissue to lose strength, shape, and tightness and leading to a loose feeling. Many women suffer from vaginal laxity, and many report that it reduces their sexual satisfaction, along with their partners. Fortunately, Viveve™ can help treat your vaginal laxity on a cellular level in about 30 minutes without anesthesia or downtime.

What is Viveve™?

Viveve™ is a revolutionary treatment that uses cryogen-cooled monopolar radiofrequency to stimulate collagen production throughout the vaginal wall, in a method that is much more controlled than laser treatments. This innovative technology allows us to induce the natural collagen production process in a controlled and uniform manner.


Viveve™ is the only treatment that uses an algorithmically controlled cooling technology for tissue strengthening that can last for up to 12 months. Cryogen-cooled monopolar radiofrequency applies precise heat at a considerable depth for a more effective neocollagenesis (production of collagen). This process restructures the vaginal tissue, creating a firmer, more youthful vaginal wall, which will provide a stronger support for the urethra and tissues in the surrounding area.


Unlike traditional vaginal rejuvenation treatments, Viveve™ is not painful. You might experience a cooling sensation and some warmth during the treatment. However, other than these sensations, the treatment is painless, comfortable, and requires no recovery time. In as little as one treatment, you can see consistent and long-term results from your Geneveve™ treatment.

What are the Results of Viveve™?

The results of Viveve™ treatments vary from patient to patient. Most patients will begin to feel results immediately after their treatment. However, collagen production can take up to three months of development after the treatment, and tightness will continue to improve over time. Depending on your body’s unique collagen production, you may feel the benefits of your treatment for up to a year or longer.
