I'm only 31 years old. I was extremely dry and felt uncomfortable at even the thought of having intercourse. I didn't mind having oral sex just as long as I wasn't being penetrated due to the extreme pain and discomfort. My doctor suggested to do the MonaLisa. It was covered by my insurance so I said sure! The first visit the nurse applied a topical anesthetic to the outside due to an intense heat emitted by the laser device. After about 10 mins the doctor came in and explained the procedure. She inserted the laser device which was painless on the inside and felt like a vibrator almost (don't worry, no sexual arousal will occur). She spent about 2-3 mins working the inside almost like an exfoliator. Getting closer to the outside is when you'll begin to feel the intense heat which, personally, wasn't too bad as I am use to scolding hot water. It is a little uncomfortable but, totally bearable for about 2 mins the procedure lasted on the outer area. The total procedure is about 5-6 mins. Afterwards they said I may feel uncomfortable but, I didn't feel any discomfort. In fact, I felt the rejuvenation immediately!! I even told my husband I felt like I had a new vagina lol!! It really is amazing and I'm looking forward to my 2nd treatment. My vagina has been moist since the procedure and I was able to have sex with my husband without feeling like i was being [RS bleep]. My husband was also very satisfied and said the difference was night and day!! I recommended this procedure to my mom who also suffers from dryness and have told other lady friends about it in the case they may experience it in the future. FANTASTIC RESULTS OVERALL!!!!
