VTone™
by INMODE
Throughout a woman’s life, various factors such as childbirth, aging, and hormonal changes associated with pregnancy and menopause can lead to a loss of vaginal elasticity and even incontinence. VTone is effective in addressing these issues.
What is VTone™?
VTone is an FDA-approved technology that provides electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) and neuromuscular re-education to strengthen weak pelvic floor muscles. This device can be used for the treatment of stress and urge incontinence in women. It can also improve vaginal tightness, appearance, and sexual function.
VTone is a non-invasive treatment that tones and trains the muscles in the pelvis by using a single-use electro-stimulator. It is placed in the vaginal canal to trigger involuntary muscle contractions which tone and tighten the pelvic floor.
This treatment works especially well for postpartum prevention of urinary issues and can be performed as soon as six weeks postpartum, if cleared by your obstetrician. Women who have experienced loss of tone after childbirth or laxity are good candidates for VTone. VTone is a gentle procedure as compared to some other vaginal rejuvenation treatments.
What are the benefits of VTone™?
Reduces Incontinence: VTone stimulates repeated contractions of weak pelvic muscles, strengthening and re-educating them, which helps treat urinary incontinence.
Revives Vaginal Wall Tightness and Elasticity: VTone enhances the tightness of the vaginal wall, which aids in addressing incontinence and improving sexual satisfaction.
Safe Procedure: VTone is an FDA-approved treatment for urinary incontinence, offering a safe solution with minimal risks.
Little or No Downtime: VTone is an in-office procedure with minimal recovery time, allowing you to return to your normal activities within a few days.
Improves Sexual Satisfaction: By restoring tightness and elasticity to the vaginal canal, VTone enhances sensation, leading to greater sexual satisfaction.
