What is MonaLisa Touch®?
As you age and as your estrogen levels go down after menopause, your vaginal tissue can atrophy. That means your vaginal tissue becomes drier and thinner than it was when you were younger. It may also become inflamed, causing burning, itching, discomfort, and even bleeding.
Because of vaginal atrophy, you may experience one or more of the following symptoms:
- Urinary incontinence such as leaking urine when you sneeze, laugh, or cough
- Lichen sclerosis (a common post-menopausal skin condition)
- Frequent urinary tract infections
- Painful penetration and intercourse
- Chronic vaginal dryness, burning, or discomfort
MonaLisa Touch vaginal laser treatments can help improve discomfort and even reverse conditions related to vaginal atrophy.
For younger women, it can help tighten up stretched vaginal tissue (also known as vaginal laxity) that can result after childbirth.
The negative effects of aging on sexual health do not need to impact your life, if you think that the Mona Lisa Touch could be beneficial for you, please contact us and book a free consultation with Dr. Kafali today!
Does MonaLisa Touch® Work?
The MonaLisa Touch is a specialized laser technology specifically designed to treat vaginal tissue. The laser energy delivered by MonaLisa Touch stimulates your vagina to form new blood vessels and increases the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins that contribute strength and elasticity to your vaginal tissues.
The MonaLisa Touch can help improve the following symptoms:
- Vaginal burning and itching
- Vaginal dryness
- Painful intercourse
- Burning or pain during urination
- Lichen Sclerosis
- Incontinence
The treatment is reported by the manufacturer to be nearly painless and takes about five minutes. Some women may require between 1-3 sessions for maximum benefit. Your doctor may recommend and a maintenance session every 12-18 months to maintain your results.
