Women’s health laser rejuvenation is a treatment performed using laser technology within the vaginal canal and to the external vulva to help rejuvenate the tissues, which aims to improve some of the common symptoms described.

At The Doctors’ Studio, we use the Fotona Smooth technology for these treatments. The Fotona Smooth technology uses an Erbium:YAG laser to gently heat the tissues in a targeted manner, triggering the body’s natural regenerative processes leading to the stimulation of new collagen and elastin production. The resulting increase in tissue support and elasticity helps to improve these symptoms.

This approach encourages a gentle, natural rejuvenation of the tissue when compared to the more aggressive ablative treatments used by some older laser technologies. There are extensive clinical studies demonstrating tightening, increased lubrication, and increased sexual gratification, as well as reduced discomfort and urinary leakage by following this philosophy.

For the internal treatment, a smooth speculum is inserted into the vaginal canal to facilitate the use of the gynaecological laser internally. Some women describe the treatment as feeling warm, and some report it occasionally feeling like a period cramp. For the external treatment a numbing cream is applied so there is minimal sensation, but some women describe occasionally feeling warmth in the area.

There aren’t any restrictions on driving or activity levels if you’re feeling well after treatment. Occasionally some women experience heaviness in the pelvis after treatment, in which case it can be helpful to rest as needed. Some women notice a change to the vaginal discharge and to the external vulva in the first few days, and it is recommended to avoid intercourse and swimming for the first week.

Although there is some individual variation, most women require three treatments one month apart followed by a single yearly maintenance treatment. Your treatment plan will be tailored to your specific needs, which may be more or less than the standard recommendation.

Some women start to notice an improvement during the initial treatment course, while others notice an improvement several months after the completion of the initial course when more collagen has been formed. It is common to feel the effects diminish around twelve months. Although the treatment aims to remodel collagen and stimulate new collagen and elastin production, it does not prevent ongoing changes that occur with age and therefore does not produce permanent results.
