VAGINAL REJUVANATION

A woman's sexuality is a complex interplay of physical and emotional responses that affects the way she thinks and feels about herself. A woman's sexual health has major impact on her overall health. Sexual problems are associated with feelings of isolation, low self-esteem and depression, and frequently impact patients’ relationships, mood state and quality of life.

When a woman has a sexual health problem, it can impact many aspects of her life, including her personal relationships and her self-esteem as well as her overall health.

It is estimated that 43% of American women suffer from sexual health issues. One third of all women, regardless of age, have diminished sexual interest. In addition, nearly one fourth of all women do not experience orgasm, while one fifth of women suffer sexual pain disorders.

VAGINAL REJUVENATION FAQS

  • Vaginal rejuvenation is a broad term that describes various vaginal corrective procedures to treat causes ranging from childbirth, menopause and aging to genetics. Your vulva and vagina may become dry, sensitive and may lose elasticity and strength. This leads to several issues like incontinence (leaking urine), vaginal dryness, sagging skin, painful sex and lack of sexual sensation and pleasure. Many women look to surgical and non-surgical options of vaginal rejuvenation to improve these conditions and restore the look and function of their vagina.

  • Loose skin around the vaginal opening

    Leaking urine when jumping, sneezing or laughing.

    Not being able to hold your urine.

    Decreased libido (sex drive)

    Excess dryness.

    Painful sex.

    Loss of sensation and sexual satisfaction.

    Lack of confidence or low self-esteem.

  • Vaginal rejuvenation procedures can be surgical or nonsurgical. Treatment affects the vulva (the outer part of the female genitals) and the vaginal canal (where penetration occurs during sex).

  • Non-surgical options of vaginal rejuvenation are great since they allow significant improvement without surgical intervention and compliment any surgical intervention you may choose.

    Nonsurgical methods of vaginal rejuvenation are noninvasive with a short recovery time. They help tighten and tone your vaginal area without needles or surgery. Nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation involves the use of energy (laser or red-light) to stimulate your bodies healing mechanism to bring in new tissue growth, blood vessels to improve lubrication, nerves to improve sensation and restores your bodies collagen/elastin and vaginal flora.

    Other non-surgical treatments involve using your bodies own stem cells (PRP) (Lady Spot Shot) to stimulate healing processes.

    Non-surgical options include Mona-Lisa Touch Vaginal Rejuvenation, The Sweet Spot Shot PRP, VFit, Yag laser and Micro needling with or without radiofrequency. All of these options we are happy to provide for you.

  • Surgical methods of vaginal rejuvenation typically involve sedation or anesthesia. Some common surgical procedures for vaginal rejuvenation are:

    Labiaplasty: Reshaping your labia or the “lips” of your vagina.

    Vaginoplasty: Tightens or repairs the vaginal canal after childbirth.

    Clitoral hood reduction/separation: Removes extra tissue that covers the clitoris to allow improved sensation of clitoris.

    Vulvoplasty: Reshapes the vulvar area (external genitalia).

    Perineoplasty: Strengthens the perineum (space between your vaginal and anus).

  • Improve the tightness of your vagina.

    Help with incontinence (leaking urine).

    Increase lubrication and moisture.

    Increase vaginal sensitivity and sensations.

    Strengthen weak vaginal and pelvic muscles.

    Improve painful intercourse.

    Enhance the appearance of your vulvar area (labia, clitoris or vaginal opening).

  • Pelvic floor exercises are recommended to maintain pelvic floor muscle strength, once you have healed from your surgery. You can do them on your own, with Kegel weights/exerciser or we can send you to specially trained pelvic floor physical therapists.

    To maintain tissue health and collagen strength it is recommended to take Vitamin C supplement, red light vaginal therapy Joylux V-Fit at home and Mona Lisa therapy. Before menopause it is best to do Mona Lisa at least yearly and after menopause at least every 6-12 months.

    Good vaginal hygiene is also important. Externally it is best to apply a daily moisturizer, such as olive oil, coconut oil or V-magic (a compounded vaginal moisturizer).

    After 4 weeks, it is also important to maintain vaginal intercourse frequency, since intercourse stimulates your bodies healing process. During intercourse it is best to use a silicone lubricant, such as Uberlube. Most over the counter lubricants dry out your vagina and are bad for vaginal health.

    If you need to schedule consultation for evaluation and possible vaginal rejuvenation or need any of the above mentioned products (Kegel Cones,V-Fit, Uberlube, Vitamin C, V-Magic), please visit our website or call our office to schedule or order products.
