Natural rejuvenation of the vagina and vulva
by Erbium Yag laser for prevention and treatment
Aging is a natural process characterized by tissue dehydration and appearance of wrinkles due to failure of the collagen fibers to retain their strength and functionality. The vagina and vulva microstructure suffer losing their strength and vitality. In addition they relax and retract losing their elasticity. The hormonal changes during pregnancy and delivery also put the vaginal walls in a big burden increasing the risk of vaginal slackening, uterine and bladder prolapse and decrease sexual satisfaction. Obesity, asthma due to chronic coughing, weight lifting, and hard manual work apply persistent and considerable pressure on the vagina walls. These abnormal uroge-genital changes may cause severe health and psychological problems to the patient and her relations with partner and family. Until recently the only treatment was the operation and mechanical support using a band / tape to support the urethra. However the success was only 50% for the first 7 years after the operation.
Nowadays, the Erbium Yag laser offers the best, non-invasive treatment for the vaginal tightening and vulva rejuvenation in less than 30 min as an office and painless procedure. The patient can immediately return to her daily activities to social as well as family and work commitments. The results are achieved in the big majority of the patients, after 1 or 2 laser treatment sessions. These are obvious and long lasting. The erbium Yag laser looks like the probe of a trans vaginal ultrasound. The produced thermal energy is targeted and induces production of a new collagen enhancing at the same time the activity of the existing one. This treatment is a new innovation and is not only offered for treatment but for cosmetic reasons as well. The laser energy activates the epithelium and connective tissue. It strengthens the micro and macro structure of the connective tissue by improving its functionality. It is the best option for vaginal tightening, vulva rejuvenation and urinary stress incontinence.
Erbium Yag laser treatments in gynaecological pathologies are usually:
2 sessions for vaginal tightening
1 session for the vulva rejuvenation
1-2 sessions for the vaginal dryness
4-6 sessions for the improvement of uterine prolapse
1-2 sessions for the urinary stress incontinence
