Vaginal Laser Rejuvenation in Los Angeles

Are you looking into vaginal rejuvenation laser treatments because childbirth, age, or other factors have left things feeling different? Vaginal rejuvenation doesn’t have to involve surgery. When you choose a laser for vaginal rejuvenation, laser heat and radio-frequency create nonsurgical vaginal tightening for natural-feeling results. Countless women have enjoyed restored tightness and sensation with help from this noninvasive option.

Vaginal rejuvenation laser treatments can be used to address a variety of sexual health issues that women struggle with at all ages. While treatments are most common following childbirth or menopause, there’s no “single” symptom or issue that you must experience in order to be able to consider laser vaginal rejuvenation. Here’s a look at the three most common reasons for choosing a laser for vaginal rejuvenation.

Vaginal Laxity

Laser treatments can help to tighten and tone the vagina without surgery. The underlying mechanism behind vaginal rejuvenation laser treatments is that a gentle laser heats the upper layer of tissue within the vagina. This triggers blood flow, collagen production, and elastin production to create tighter, firmer vaginal tissue. The benefit of laser treatments for vaginal laxity is that there’s no need to make an incision that requires stitches or downtime. Laser treatments simply trigger the body’s own natural tissue production.

Vaginal Dryness

Women have traditionally been prescribed hormonal therapies or lubricants to address vaginal dryness. While these options can still be appropriate in some cases, they don’t offer the freedom that women want because it can feel like you are dependent on a product to relieve dryness or enjoy sexual experiences. Using a laser for vaginal rejuvenation to treat dryness triggers the body’s own healing response to increase blood flow while producing more collagen and elastin. This mini “healing process” that takes place in response to the heat from the laser also triggers the growth of new blood vessels that help with maintaining proper natural lubrication.

Sexual Sensitivity

Laser treatments essentially “wake up” the blood vessels in the vagina that allow for sexual satisfaction and sensitivity. By stimulating vascular tissue, lasers encourage more blood flow that can aid with arousal. The increased blood flow can also help to resolve pain and sensitivity during sexual intercourse.

Relying on a laser for vaginal rejuvenation has many benefits over surgery or hormonal treatments for many women. Of course, it’s important to work with a doctor to pinpoint the origins of any pain or discomfort you’re experiencing to rule out a larger underlying cause. Here’s a look at the benefits of laser treatment.

Short Recovery Time

While vaginal rejuvenation surgery can require downtime lasting four to six weeks, patients who undergo laser rejuvenation don’t necessarily need downtime. While you may be advised to avoid strenuous activity for one to three days in order to allow for optimal healing, you won’t need to put your life on hold to recover. Your doctor will also provide you with guidelines for when you can resume sexual activity following laser treatments.

Quick Treatments

Each vaginal laser treatment lasts just a few minutes. In general, patients need to reserve between 30 and 60 minutes per treatment when accounting for preparation time and laser treatments. Most sessions last just 10 minutes. This is something that can be done over a long lunch break.

Costs Less

Vaginal rejuvenation laser treatments can cost a fraction of the price of vaginal rejuvenation surgery. One of the reasons why laser treatments are inexpensive compared to surgery is that there’s no need for anesthesia. Additionally, the procedure is done in an OBGYN office instead of a medical center.

Painless

For women struggling with pain and discomfort, the idea of having vaginal surgery isn’t always appealing. A vaginal laser treatment is a painless experience. While you may feel some light sensations while the laser is being applied, this is considered a gentle, noninvasive treatment that doesn’t require anesthesia or pain medication.

Vaginal laser rejuvenation treatment costs generally range from $800 to $2,500. Total cost for laser treatment can vary based on the reason for treatment, the number of sessions needed, and other factors. In most cases, a patient will need up to three treatments spanning several months in order to achieve optimal results. Depending on the reason why you’re pursuing laser rejuvenation treatments, your insurance company may cover this procedure. With so many factors influencing the cost of vaginal rejuvenation laser treatments, it’s necessary to book a consultation with a care provider to get an accurate estimate.
