Introduction: Aging is a natural event, however for women the effects are more drastic, interfering directly in their sexual health, leading to intimate changes such as vulvovaginal sagging and hyperchromic. Objective: To investigate whether the use of radiofrequency associated with vitamin C reduces the signs of aging and decreases the cutaneous hyperpigmentation of the vulvar zone. Materials and Methods: Forty women divided into Radiofrequency (RF) and Radiofrequency associated with Vitamin C (RFC) were selected to meet the inclusion criteria to perform 4 treatment sessions. Data were collected from the photographic visual evaluation of a gynecologist, a dermatologist, and a specialist physiotherapist, from the pre and post-procedure, in addition to the participant's intimate self-assessment through a questionnaire. At the end of treatment, 35 women with the age group of 40.8 RF and 34.2 RFC were left. Results: Participants reported improvement in sexual satisfaction, however, there was no significant difference between the RF and RFC groups regarding sagging and whitening and the inter-evaluator evaluation was unagreed. Conclusion: If necessary, more sessions are performed for possible evidence of vitamin C use.
