The holiday season brings joy by celebrating with family and friends, holiday parties, special events and gift giving, but alongside of all of the “Fa La La” often comes a bit of stress, over-indulgence and anxiety. It’s important to try and take time out for yourself to destress. Don’t forget about your health. It’s critical to make sure you’ve scheduled your year-end medical appointments, and this also includes your gynecological visit. Regular wellness exams are essential to early diagnosis and staying healthy, but many women also secretly suffer with sexual dysfunction.
As women age, it’s common to start to encounter changes in sexual health. Some of the disorders are pain, dryness, lack of sexual desire, and while these are NOT a “normal part of aging,” these symptoms are often attributed to the following:
• VVA (Vulvovaginal Atrophy)
• HSSD (Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder)
• Medication Side Effects
• Menopausal Effects
• Trauma
• Oophorectomy or Hysterectomy
• Endocrine Disorders
• Hormonal Imbalance
• Poor Body Image or Psychological Issues
Women no longer have to suffer silently. There is an alternative treatment option that is working for many women. It’s called MonaLisa Touch®, which is an advanced technique that has helped countless women with no drugs, no hormones, and it’s 100% non-invasive!
MonaLisa Touch®
Non-Hormonal Advanced Treatment
The MonaLisa Touch® is a new laser therapy for the vagina and vulvar. There are no medications, not cutting and no lengthy healing times with this procedure. It’s similar to having a Pap smear test done. The laser does not hurt or cause any pain. You will only feel tiny vibrating sensations from the machine, and the best part is that the entire procedure is accomplished in an outpatient, office setting.
The laser assists with the bodies cell renewal and regenerates the mucous membrane and help with the restoration of collagen and renewing the proper trophic balance to the membrane. MonaLisa Touch® is a functional vaginal rejuvenation treatment based on a unique fractional CO2 laser.
