4 Reasons MonaLisa Touch May Be Right For You
As women age, estrogen production declines. The lack of estrogen can cause symptoms such as vaginal dryness, itching, urinary incontinence as well as painful intercourse, all of which can negatively impact your life. Also known as Vaginal Atrophy, the thinning, drying, and inflammation of vaginal walls experienced by many women is due to this reduction in estrogen.
The MonaLisa Touch laser treatment can help relieve these symptoms by encouraging the natural healing response in the body. With each treatment, new collagen growth occurs to restore vaginal health and functionality.
Consider if MonaLisa Touch may be a good option for you.
1. Restores Sexual Health
When your reproductive hormone levels decline, the health and vitality of your vaginal walls are affected. Your body is uniquely designed for bringing children into the world, and your reproductive systems are geared toward facilitating this in every way, from lubrication to elasticity in your vaginal tissue. When your estrogen and progesterone levels drop after your childbearing years (or as a result of surgery or medications), your body transitions into a non-childbearing state, and the tissue in your vagina responds in kind.
The end result is often vaginal dryness, itching, burning, and thinning tissue, which can significantly effect your ability to enjoy sex. The MonaLisa Touch laser allows for the restoration of healthier, thicker tissue, enabling you to maintain a healthy and happy sex life long after your childbearing years are over.
2. Treats Incontinence
Weakening muscles around the bladder is the cause of female incontinence, or the inability to control the bladder. The muscles may become weak as a result of weight gain, pregnancies, injuries, natural aging and a very common side effect of menopause. Again, these are all incredibly common occurrences to see in the lifespan of the average person, and that makes female incontinence incredibly likely to happen to a lot of people.
With the MonaLisa Touch, the vaginal tissue begins the natural healing process, providing renewed support for your bladder. In just a few treatments, bladder control can be improved, preventing embarrassing leakage that may have kept you from getting out and enjoying your life.
3. Targeted approach
Commonly, hormone replacement therapy has been the default treatment option to ease menopause symptoms. This therapy is a systemic approach, when you may only want to address your gynecological issues. With MonaLisa Touch, you’re able to focus on the symptoms that are affecting your life, without resorting to changing your body’s overall hormone levels.
4. Quick and easy
The MonaLisa Touch treatment itself takes 5 minutes, performed in-office. Most women receive three treatments, six weeks apart. Because there’s no downtime associated with the treatment, you can be in and out with minimal disruption to your day.
