Self-esteem & Confidence
Millions of women suffer from looseness, or decreased sensation with sex, due to childbirth, age, and a variety of other reasons that diminish their confidence and self-esteem. It is a common complaint in many sexually active women that regularly impacts personal relationships. Embarrassed, frustrated, and sad, women are often too uncomfortable to speak up. Until recently, the only options have been Kegel exercises or surgery. Our practice is pleased to offer Laser Vaginal Tightening with FemiLift.

FAQs
Treatment for heavy periods is covered by most insurance plans, so the cost is usually the amount of your copay.
As with any medical procedure, we always recommended calling your insurance company to have them explain your coverage.
The specialized laser probe is inserted into the vagina which can rotate 360 degrees. The light beam penetrates the vaginal epithelium to target the tissue where new collagen is produced. It is a virtually painless procedure without anesthesia or downtime. Most patients report that the treatment is more comfortable than having a Pap smear.
Patients return to normal, daily activities following their procedure. However, sexual intercourse should be avoided for 5 days. A patient who is treated on a Monday may have sex by Friday night.
Laser Vaginal Tightening is safe for most women, including those with other vaginal concerns such as pelvic relaxation, vaginal prolapse, stress urinary incontinence, endometriosis, and pelvic pain. It is recommended to wait 3 months after childbirth to have the treatment. Women may use all forms of birth control including an IUD or have had previous pelvic surgery such as a vaginal repair or hysterectomy.
Laser Vaginal Tightening is ideal for the post-menopausal woman. The treatment promotes collagen production and remodeling in the vagina which in turn results in a return of the rugae, or architecture, that is lost with menopause. Women report improved lubrication and a decrease in pain associated with penetration. There is a return of a more youthful vagina.
Women should be prepared to experience increased vaginal sensation and pleasure following each treatment. Vaginal lubrication may improve, and orgasms may become more intense. There are rare risks that may be associated with this procedure which your practitioner will discuss with you. Some women may experience a watery discharge or spotting for only a day or two. Any further concerns you may have will be discussed during your consultation.
