I opted to do the MonaLisa Touch procedure because I was experiencing vaginal atrophy symptoms that included painful intercourse. I had been taking bio-identical HRT, but because of unrelated health issues, I was unable to continue with this approach. I tried an array of other remedies that didn't work, and finally decided to try the MonaLisa. It's the best thing I have ever done! After the initial treatments last year and my yearly follow-up treatment, I have absolutely no vaginal atrophy symptoms. Intercourse is not painful, only pleasurable and exactly like it was before menopause. And, I no longer need a lubricant for sex. Dr. Steven Rabin in Burbank, CA was the doctor who performed the procedure, and he is wonderful. I had some minor difficulties after the second treatment (burning, etc.) and he helped me through that. I'm so glad I stuck with the process, as now things are better than ever. To me, the MonaLisa Touch is a miracle. I never would have thought that the vaginal atrophy symptoms I was experiencing due to menopause would be completely reversed by a procedure like this.
