How laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Works

The basic concept of laser vaginal rejuvenation is simple – tiny columns of laser energy are used in multiples, and these stimulate the production of collagen and help with the regeneration of vaginal tissue. The foundation of the procedure is the same as the laser therapy used to rejuvenate facial skin. However, unlike a facial laser treatment, you will require to undergo a normal PAP smear and vaginal exam, before you can undergo an LVR session.

The treatment takes around 10 to 15 minutes and most women prefer to get it done during their lunch break. A swab will be inserted inside the vagina to ensure that it is completely dry and a laser probe will be inserted later. Most women have spoken about how the probe emits a gentle vibration and warmth, but there is no pain. The probe will be removed after about 5 minutes. In most cases, the regeneration of vaginal tissue will start in about 30 days, the result of which will be a stronger and tighter vagina, which has better elasticity and hydration.

A very small percentage of women, who have undergone LVR have spoken about there being discomfort for the first day. However, close to 95% women have said that there was no pain or discomfort. You should be able to return to your normal routine, immediately, but you might be asked to refrain from exercise for at least 24 hours and sexual intercourse for about 5 days.

For most women, the results become obvious right after the first session, but for the best results, you should go for 3 treatments, each spaced out about a month in time. Although the results are not permanent, they will last a long time. As the natural process of ageing continues, you can always go for top up treatments.
