If you’re experiencing the challenges of menopausal symptoms, or recovering from breast cancer treatments, many available treatments can help improve vaginal health. Introduced in the U.S. in 2015, the MonaLisa Touch has become an effective solution to rejuvenate vaginal tissue and improve overall quality of life. Here’s why considering the MonaLisa Touch might be beneficial for you.
What is MonaLisa Touch?
The MonaLisa Touch utilizes a CO2 laser to treat the vaginal mucosa, extending from the cervix to the vaginal opening. This procedure is particularly designed to revitalize vaginal tissues by promoting the regeneration of new tissue and improving blood circulation in the area.
How Does It Work?
The CO2 laser technology gently acts on the vaginal walls through a controlled emission of laser energy, which stimulates both collagen and elastin production. This process helps in rejuvenating the vaginal mucosa, enhancing moisture, and elasticity.
Benefits of MonaLisa Touch
Enhanced Sensation and Lubrication
One of the immediate benefits reported by many who undergo the MonaLisa Touch procedure is enhanced sensation and natural lubrication. These improvements are critical in reducing discomfort during intercourse, thus boosting intimacy and sexual satisfaction.
Improved Vaginal Tightness
This procedure may also lead to a slight tightening of the vaginal canal. This is a direct effect of the stimulated tissues regaining some of their youthful elasticity and firmness.
Overall Quality of Life
The most significant impact of the MonaLisa Touch is often seen in the overall enhancement of quality of life. Many women report substantial improvements in their confidence, intimacy levels, and general comfort, making it an easy treatment option for those affected by menopausal symptoms.
How Does MonaLisa Touch Differ from Other Vaginal Rejuvenation Treatments?
While MonaLisa Touch offers many benefits, other non-surgical treatment options are available such as Morpheus8V and FormaV.
Morpheus8 V and Forma V
- Morpheus8 V: Utilizes deep microneedling combined with radiofrequency to provide noticeable vaginal tightening. It is particularly unique in its ability to address stress urinary incontinence and overactive bladder, making it a standout option for comprehensive vaginal rejuvenation.
- Forma V: Focuses on non-invasive thermal tissue remodeling, also using radiofrequency to enhance tissue and collagen production deep within the vaginal canal.
Which Technology is Right for You?
The choice between MonaLisa Touch and other vaginal rejuvenation treatments will depend on your specific health goals. When you meet with Dr. Kafali, she will recommend the best treatment options for you.
