You may have heard the term vaginal rejuvenation. It is used to describe a few different techniques, some surgical, some not. The first use of the term began when plastic surgeons began performing procedures that tightened the vaginal canal or reshaped the labia. This created the perception that vaginal rejuvenation was something a woman would get if she wanted to feel more sexual pleasure. With this perception, the full benefits of vaginal rejuvenation could be easily missed.
In our Houston office, we perform non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation treatment. This technique works without incisions and without anesthesia or downtime. It works by heating the vaginal tissue to provoke substantial remodeling that results in tightening, toning, and more. Using the CO2RE Intima device, we help patients feel like themselves again.
WHAT IS CO2RE INTIMA VAGINAL REJUVENATION?
The CO2RE device is a CO2 laser. The energy is harnessed to safely and effectively treat both the superficial and deep layers of vaginal tissue, both internally and externally. Laser treatment to the vaginal area? Ouch! Not at all. Though gentle and comfortable, laser vaginal rejuvenation stimulates the neoformation of collagen and elastin for improved sensation and function.
Our vaginal rejuvenation treatment is performed in the office using a small, single-use, wand-like applicator. This can be comfortably inserted into the vaginal canal to deliver controlled laser energy into the walls of the vagina. The applicator, used externally, delivers energy into the labia. In both areas, this energy causes collagen fibers to quickly constrict and tighten. The entire process takes less than half an hour.
VAGINAL REJUVENATION IS NOT ABOUT VANITY
Where there was once this idea that vaginal rejuvenation was done to make the vagina “prettier,” we’ve gone far beyond that these days. Yes, the vaginal laser treatment can make the external genitalia somewhat smaller. This can correct sagging and the discomfort that goes along with it, so it’s about much more than liking the appearance of the labia. Internal vaginal tightening, as well, is known for correcting the vaginal laxity that can cause a loss of sensation during sexual intercourse. However, laser vaginal rejuvenation also stimulates collagen remodeling that increases necessary vaginal lubrication. The tightening of the vaginal muscles may increase sexual pleasure, but it also reduces or eliminates stress urinary incontinence, a condition that affects nearly half of all women.
