Vaginal Rejuvenation

Vaginal Rejuvenation Long Island

Many women suffer unpleasant vaginal effects from aging, childbirth, and other challenges. Vaginal rejuvenation with a laser is designed to restore vaginal tissues to full health and functionality without invasive surgeries.

Over time, vaginal tissues can become lax and lose some of their elasticity and youthfulness. This can cause a variety of issues, including:

• Laxness of tissues
• Reduced moisture
• Pain or discomfort with sexual intercourse
• Reduced sexual pleasure and response
• Urinary incontinence or dribbling

Using a CO2 laser with a handheld wand, plastic surgeons can reduce or eliminate these issues, tightening and rejuvenating the area.

How Does Vaginal Tightening Work?

Laser therapy using Fraxel CO2 lasers releases a controlled amount of energy and heat to the targeted area. This stimulates the body to heal itself and produce new, more functional cells. Cells begin to produce more collagen, the substance that makes our tissues firm and elastic. In addition, lasers increase circulation to the area, allowing for healthier cells. The result is more youthful tissues which have better integrity. This can decrease dryness and atrophy, increase sexual pleasure, and even reduce unpleasant symptoms such as incontinence.

CO2 laser therapy on the vagina can be used both internally and externally. It is completely safe when used by an experienced plastic surgeon.

There are several benefits to choosing this therapy over types of vaginal rejuvenation. These include:

• Non-surgical therapy that usually takes less than an hour
• Minimally invasive, requiring very little recovery and downtime
• Resolution of vaginal dryness, irritation, and other age-related symptoms
• Tightening of vaginal tissue, reducing laxness while improving function
• Improvement of resolution of urinary incontinence
• Restoration of sexual pleasure and function
