InMode Launches EmpowerRF Women’s Wellness Platform

InMode, a medical technology company, announced the launch of the EmpowerRF Women’s Wellness platform.¹

EmpowerRF is a platform designed to give women’s wellness therapies by using multiple complementary technologies, according to a press release. The combination of multiple modalities offers customized, layered procedures to treat many conditions like blood circulation, pain relief, pelvic floor weakness, along with stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence (SUI).

"The female health journey involves a complex range of physiological changes and gynecological conditions which often require medical intervention,” says Spero Theodorou, MD, InMode chief medical officer and plastic surgeon, in New York, New York. “EmpowerRF provides a variety of highly efficacious minimally invasive procedures that will have a meaningful impact on the quality of life for women globally. Women everywhere will no longer suffer in silence.”

The key benefits according to the InMode website are:²

• Leveraging multiple complementary energies:
  • intravaginal electrical muscle stimulation (EMS)
  • sub-epithelial fractional radiofrequency (RF)
  • bipolar RF
• Synergistic technology handpieces provide customized, layered procedures to address a broad range of issues.
• Versatile in-office system quickly delivers targeted, effective, and safe therapies.
• Restore patient self-confidence and quality of life without surgery or prolonged downtime.

"As the medical aesthetics innovation leader, InMode is renowned for developing and commercializing disruptive technologies,” says Shakil Lakhani, InMode North American president, Houston, Texas. “While other companies have withdrawn from feminine health, InMode has continued to invest heavily in this segment. The EmpowerRF platform revolutionizes women's wellness and is a testament of our commitment to drive change in this important global market.”

The technologies featured on the workstation include:²

• VTone: FDA cleared device designed to provide intravaginal electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) and neuromuscular re-education. This helps weak pelvic floor muscles, addresses stress, and treats urinary issues.

• FormaV: RF treatment used to provide a uniform volumetric deep heating for tissue remodeling with temperature control.

• Tone: Pulse device for EMS to create involuntary muscle contractions.
