Can the vFit Plus be used on the labia/vulva for tightening results?

Question

Can the Vfit plus be used on the labia/vulva? Will it yield any tightening results by doing so?

Marco A. Pelosi III, MD, FACOG, FACS · Answer

There are 3 ways to tighten the vulva - nonsurgical laser or RF, fat injections (aka puffing), and surgical nip/tuck (aka labia majoraplasty reduction). vFit doesn't do anything for this area. If you want an expert opinion on which options would be best for you, start with a virtual consult.

Jennifer R. Berman, MS, MD · Answer

The vFit Plus is primarily designed for intravaginal use to improve vaginal health, tone, and wellness using red light therapy, gentle heat, and sonic vibration. It is not intended for use directly on the labia or vulva. Applying it to the external genital area may not provide any noticeable tightening benefits, as its mechanism targets internal vaginal tissue.

For external tightening or labia/vulva rejuvenation, other treatments—such as topical products, laser therapies, or radiofrequency devices specifically designed for that purpose—might be more effective. If you’re considering external rejuvenation, it’s best to consult a healthcare provider to explore safe and effective options tailored to your needs.

Hi there,Thank you for your question! While the Vfit will most likely not provide any of the changes you're describing, its sister device, the NeoHeat, may be able to. It uses the same type of infrared therapy, albeit in a rectangle pattern, as opposed to the rounded tip used by the Vfit. I would note, however, that the NeoHeat is not indicated for vulvar tightening, so your results may not be what you desire.
Is there a specific area that feels more "loose" to you on the vulva?

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

To improve the appearance of stretched out or elongated labia you can consider Aviva.  This non surgical procedure improves shape of the inner and outer labia.  For sensation and vaginal tightening concerns you can consider a combination of VTone, Morpheus8v, and FormaV.  These three treatments are often packaged together to improve both vaginal tightness, labia appearance, and  enhancing sexual sensation.  See a provider near you or my website to learn more.

Our office is a provider for the V-Fit device, as we feel that the extra attention paid to women's "hidden" inner vagina has positive effects on her sexual response. V-Fit provides heat, vibration, and low-level laser therapy also described as "red light therapy."
 
Red light therapy (RLT) is a treatment that may help skin, muscle tissue, and other parts of the body heal. It exposes you to low levels of red or near-infrared light. Infrared light is a type of energy your eyes can’t see, but your body can feel as heat. Red light is similar to infrared, but you can see it. Red light therapy is also called low-level laser therapy (LLLT), low-power laser therapy (LPLT), and photobiomodulation (PBM).

A V-Fit device contains a laser with a red light. A part of your cells called mitochondria, sometimes called the “power generators” of your cells, soak it up and make more energy. Some experts think this helps cells repair themselves and become healthier. This spurs healing in skin and muscle tissue.
Red light therapy uses very low levels of heat and doesn’t hurt or burn the skin. It’s not the same type of light used in tanning booths, and it doesn’t expose your skin to damaging UV rays. A V-Fit device is generally used for a specified period of time usually every other day. To directly answer your question, under no way, shape or form does a V-Fit device do ANYTHING to "tighten" any portion of your vulva, including labia, or for that matter the vagina.
