Vaginal Microneedling with RF Energy: A Revolutionary Approach to Pelvic Health

For women navigating the challenges of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), the quest for effective, non-surgical solutions can feel overwhelming. At Skinworks Wellness, we’re proud to offer a breakthrough treatment that combines vaginal microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy—a cutting-edge therapy backed by clinical research and designed to restore confidence, comfort, and pelvic health.

The Science Behind the Treatment: How Microneedling + RF Works

This innovative approach uses a specialized device, such as InMode’s Morpheus8V, which features 24 microneedles to deliver fractional bipolar RF energy deep into vaginal tissues (1–3 mm penetration). Here’s how it transforms pelvic health:

Collagen and Elastin Remodeling

The microneedles create controlled micro-injuries, triggering the body’s natural healing response. Simultaneously, RF energy heats the tissue layers, stimulating:

  • Neocollagenesis: New collagen formation strengthens vaginal walls.
  • Neoelastogenesis: Improved elasticity enhances tissue support.
  • Neoangiogenesis: Increased blood flow revitalizes atrophic tissues.

Precision Targeting

Unlike surface-level RF treatments, microneedling delivers energy to deeper tissue layers, addressing superficial GSM symptoms (e.g., dryness) and underlying pelvic floor muscle laxity.

Why Choose Microneedling + RF Over Other Treatments?

Here are some of its advantages over traditional therapies

  • Dual Action: Simultaneously treats SUI, GSM, and vaginal atrophy.
  • Minimal Downtime: Resume daily activities within 24 hours.
  • Long-Lasting Results: Effects persist for 6–12 months, with maintenance sessions extending the benefits.
  • Safety Profile: No serious adverse events were reported in clinical trials; mild redness or swelling resolves quickly.

Comparison to Pelvic Floor Exercises (PFMT)

While PFMT strengthens muscles, it doesn’t address tissue atrophy or hormonal changes. Microneedling + RF offers a complementary solution by rebuilding collagen and improving blood flow, critical for menopausal women.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate?

This treatment is ideal for women experiencing:

  • Postpartum Pelvic Floor Weakness: Restore muscle tone after childbirth.
  • Menopausal GSM Symptoms: Combat dryness, itching, or pain during intercourse.
  • Mixed Urinary Incontinence (MUI): Reducing leakage triggered by stress and urgency.
  • Vaginal Laxity: Improve sexual satisfaction and physical confidence.

Contraindications: Active infections, pregnancy, or certain chronic conditions. A consultation at Skinworks Wellness ensures a personalized eligibility assessment.

Addressing Common Concerns

Is It Safe?

  • Safety Data: A 2023 study of 20 women reported zero serious side effects, with transient redness as the most common reaction.
  • Sham-Controlled Evidence: A 2021 trial confirmed that active RF + PEMF therapy caused no more discomfort than placebo treatments

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

Most women achieve optimal results with three sessions, 4–6 weeks apart.
