Why Should Someone Choose The MonaLisa Touch Over Other Vaginal Rejuvenation Methods?

MonaLisa Touch is designed for the treatment of and alleviation of vaginal atrophy, not vaginal relaxation. While some patients are reporting that tightness is a happy side effect, it has not been FDA approved as a treatment option to address vaginal relaxation. The recommended treatment for vaginal relaxation is surgical tightening through vaginal rejuvenation surgery.Vaginal Rejuvenation surgery is a safe, out-patient procedure that takes one to two hours under general anesthesia. Consult with a few surgeons to discuss your current medical standing and their recommendations for you. Make sure you visit with surgeon's who are highly trained and specialize in cosmetic vaginal surgeries and care. Ask to review before and after photos and read testimonials from their previous patients so you feel confident in their offerings and results. 

The advantages of laser vaginal tightening with FemiLift or MLT are the lack of downtime, the rapid return to sexual activity, and lower upfront cost. The tradeoff is a less intense effect and a temporary duration of effect versus surgery with vaginoplasty. This might be an ideal choice for women who suffer from vaginal laxity, but wish to have more children, have a busy schedule or can't afford surgery. Some effects of laser vaginal tightening such as increased lubrication can't be replicated by surgery. This opens the door for treatment strategies that combine laser vaginal tightening with surgical vaginal rejuvenation to allow motivated women to have the best of both approaches. The treatments are not mutually exclusive.There is confusion among some clinicians as to what laser resurfacing of the vaginal skin accomplishes. This is probably due to the fact that a company who sought FDA approval for vaginal atrophy is only allowed to market their product for that indication while a company sought FDA approval for skin tightening is only allowed to advertise that indication. In essence, all nonsurgical vaginal CO2 lasers drill a matrix of holes into the vaginal epithelium. That process stimulates the production of collagen as the body seeks to repair the holes. The production of new collagen tightens the skin, corrects vaginal atrophy and enhances vaginal lubrication no matter what label the laser happens to be wearing.
