Subject's assessment of discomfort and pain as measured by a 10 cm visual analog scale (VAS) at 12 months if treatment (optional) is provided. Subjects experiencing a treatment-related adverse event (AE) at six-months and twelve-months post-treatment. Long term efficacy of the Venus Fiore Fiore™ (MP)2 system in improving vaginal laxity and skin laxity of the mons pubis and labia. Improvement in vaginal laxity at six-months and twelve-months post-treatment compared to baseline as defined as a score >4 on the VLQ. Improvement in FSFI mean score at six-months and twelve-months post-treatment compared to baseline.

Traditional non-surgical treatments to treat vaginal laxity include Kegel exercises or pelvic floor therapy with electrical stimulation of the vaginal musculature to promote muscle strength. Although surgery to tighten the vaginal introitus has been used, pain at the incision site leading to dyspareunia, sometimes for months, limits its use. Surgery is also recommended to reduce protuberant mons pubis and the outer labial lips of the labia majora. Most often, the mons pubis has been treated by fat reduction, either by liposuction or open excision along with a pubic skin lift. Surgery to reduce the excess skin of the labia majora tends to be avoided due to a lack of operative techniques and a fear of creating sexual dysfunction. Development of alternative methods of treatment, avoiding the usual surgical complications is warranted. The use of non-ablative radiofrequency (RF) therapy has been used previously for the external and internal female genitalia without incident or complications. The use of Multi-Polar RF and PEMF technology was already demonstrated to be safe and efficient in delivering heat to the tissue. A previous study investigated the safety and efficacy of combining these technologies for the treatment of vaginal laxity and in the treatment of the mons pubis and labia for the improvement in skin laxity at four-months post-treatment. Efficacy and safety was confirmed up to 4-months post-treatment. (Venus FioreTM CS0716 study, unpublished raw data). However, the durability of the treatment is not known. This study will investigate whether Multi-Polar RF and PEMF technologies for the treatment of vaginal laxity and for the treatment of the mons pubis and labia is safe and efficacious at six-months and twelve-months post-treatment.
