For many women, labial hypertrophy (enlarged labia) is more than an aesthetic concern; it is a daily source of physical discomfort and self-consciousness. AVIVA scarless labiaplasty offers a modern alternative, utilizing advanced radio-frequency technology to remodel intimate tissue without excision. At Progressive Women’s Care, Dr. Ann Marie Bertles offers this minimally invasive solution to patients in Katy, TX, and the surrounding Houston area.
What Is AVIVA Scarless Labiaplasty?
AVIVA is a minimally invasive procedure powered by AccuTite technology. It utilizes Radio-Frequency Assisted Lipolysis (RFAL) to heat the skin and underlying tissue gently. Unlike traditional labiaplasty, which cuts away excess tissue, AVIVA shrinks and tightens the area through controlled thermal energy.
This approach makes it an ideal non-surgical option for women seeking significant improvement without the risks of conventional surgery. By stimulating collagen production, the treatment not only reduces the size of the labia but also improves overall skin texture and tone in the intimate area.
How the Procedure Works & What Sets It Apart
The AVIVA treatment utilizes a specialized handheld device specifically designed for use on delicate areas. Dr. Bertles applies a “sandwich” technique, where the device delivers radio-frequency energy to both the internal and external layers of the labia simultaneously. This dual-action heating causes the soft tissue to contract and tighten immediately.
Patients searching for laser/RF labiaplasty in Houston often choose AVIVA because it eliminates the need for long incisions. The procedure creates a more natural contour compared to the “amputated” look that can sometimes result from aggressive surgical trimming. The technology ensures uniform results, addressing labial tightening needs with high precision.
Who Can Benefit & Which Concerns It Addresses
This treatment is designed for women who experience physical irritation or are unhappy with the appearance of their intimate area but wish to avoid surgery. It is an effective intimate wellness treatment that patients utilize to address several common issues.
Good candidates typically experience:
- Physical discomfort or friction when wearing tight clothing like yoga pants or swimwear.
- Irritation or pulling sensations during exercise, cycling, or sexual intercourse.
- Self-consciousness regarding the size or asymmetry of the labia minora or majora.
- A desire for women’s wellness labia treatment Katy that involves minimal interruption to daily life.
- Mild to moderate laxity that does not require extensive surgical reconstruction.
Non-invasive Office Procedure
We perform AVIVA in our comfortable office setting under local anesthesia. The entire process typically takes less than one hour. Because there are no large incisions, patients do not require general anesthesia, which significantly lowers procedural risk. Using radiofrequency technology, we can reduce the labia and tighten the surrounding tissues in a single treatment, lasting approximately 30-45 minutes. We can reduce the labial size by approximately 30-40%.
Results and Aftercare
Recovery is generally straightforward and manageable for most patients. Immediately following the procedure, you can return home, though mild swelling is expected. Most women seeking scarless labiaplasty in Cypress, TX, find that they can return to work or engage in light daily activities within one to two days after the procedure.
Full activity, including strenuous exercise and sexual intercourse, can typically be resumed after two weeks, or once Dr. Bertles has cleared you. Results are often visible immediately due to tissue contraction, with improvements continuing to develop over the following weeks as new collagen forms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is AVIVA scarless labiaplasty painful?
We administer local anesthesia to numb the treatment area completely before beginning. Most patients report feeling only mild pressure or warmth during the procedure, and post-procedure discomfort is typically manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers.
Will AVIVA affect my sexual sensation?
This is a common concern, but AVIVA is designed to target the tissue without damaging the sensitive nerve endings responsible for pleasure. Many women report that their sexual satisfaction actually improves after treatment because they no longer experience the physical distraction of discomfort or self-consciousness.
Does AVIVA treat both the labia minora and majora?
Yes, the AccuTite technology is versatile and can address laxity in both the labia minora (inner lips) and labia majora (outer lips). Dr. Bertles can personalize your treatment plan to address specific concerns in either or both areas, achieving a balanced look.
Can this procedure correct uneven or asymmetrical labia?
Absolutely. One of the primary benefits of this non-surgical labiaplasty treatment is the ability to contour specific areas with high precision. Dr. Bertles can treat one side more aggressively than the other to improve symmetry and restore balance.
Is it safe to have AVIVA before having children?
Yes, you can undergo this procedure before childbirth. However, it is important to note that pregnancy and vaginal delivery can stretch the tissues again, which might alter your results. If you plan to have children in the near future, we can discuss the best timing during your consultation.
