Vaginal laser

"Menopausal dryness, repeated infections or even urinary incontinence after childbirth can be very distressing for women. There is pain, sometimes embarrassment, and even sex life can be affected. The vaginal laser is a relatively new, gentle and lasting procedure that regenerates the mucous membrane and thus the symptoms can be alleviated or eliminated."

How it works

Vaginal laser mode of action

The vaginal laser is a rod-shaped laser which is inserted into the vagina. This emits laser beams in a 360° radius. The targeted thermal heating of the vaginal tissue stimulates the growth and regeneration of collagen fibers and fine blood vessels. This regenerates the mucous membrane and leads to tightening of the vaginal walls. Furthermore, it improves the moisture and Vaginal flora is stabilized, which means that infections rarely occur. We have been using the same effects for many years in the anti-aging treatment of the face with the laser. Vaginal laser technology is safe, efficient and painless. 

Procedure

Vaginal laser procedure

Treatment in the intimate area is a matter of trust. Therefore, we discuss your specific complaints in detail during a personal consultation. The laser treatment should be preceded by an examination by a gynecologist including a pap smear. The PAP smear should not be more than 3 months old. The time of treatment should be outside the middle of the cycle. 

The treatment itself takes only a few minutes and is performed on an outpatient basis. The rod-shaped laser is inserted into the vagina. Subsequently, if desired and at no additional cost, the outer and inner labia are treated with a fractional laser. Immediately after the treatment you can return to your normal activities. 

Recommended are 1-4 treatments at an interval of at least 4 weeks. In many cases, improvement can be achieved after the first session. The expert letter recommends three sessions to achieve a sustainable result of 1-2 years. After that, the treatment can be refreshed with individual sessions.
