What Exactly Is Monalisa Touch?

MonaLisa Touch is a procedure that uses fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser energy to administer treatment to soft tissues, like the vaginal tissue. This mild laser treatment may effectively and safely rebuild your vaginal tissue. It offers medication and a hormone-free answer to various pelvic health issues.

What Issues Can MonaLisa Touch Fix?

As you age and your estrogen levels drop following menopause, your vaginal tissue may atrophy. That implies your vaginal tissue will become thinner and drier than before. It can also become swollen, resulting in irritation, burning, discomfort, and possibly bleeding.

Some of the symptoms you may experience due to vaginal atrophy include:

  • Painful intercourse
  • Chronic/constant urinary system infections
  • Vaginal bleeding or discomfort
  • Leaking whenever you laugh, cough, or sneeze

Therapy with MonaLisa Touch could aid in the reversal of vaginal atrophy caused by menopause. It could also assist in tightening up slack vaginal tissue (also known as vaginal laxity) that might occur following childbirth in younger women.

What Occurs During A Monalisa Touch Procedure?

Dr. Zilberstein offers MonaLisa Touch therapy at the clinic in NYC. The procedure is painless; thus, no anesthesia is required. During the procedure, he drives a tiny probe inside your vagina. This probe provides mild laser radiation to your vaginal tissues.

Your MonaLisa Touch® procedure will only take around five minutes. The laser energy generated encourages the formation of new blood vessels in your vagina. Besides, it enhances the development of elastin and collagen, two proteins that give your vaginal tissues suppleness and strength.

Most ladies may resume their normal routine immediately after treatment. Nevertheless, Dr. Zilberstein might suggest that you avoid sexual intercourse for 2-3 days.

Why Select MonaLisa Touch® Over Other Procedures?

If you are suffering from vaginal atrophy, lubricants, moisturizers, or oral or vaginal estrogen might help. However, vaginal products make a mess, and most women choose not to have or use estrogen.

MonaLisa Touch therapy is a safe and effective alternative to estrogen and lubricants. Its low-level laser radiation promotes the formation of healthy tissue.

How Many Sessions Will You Require?

The majority of women undergo three treatments spread six weeks apart. Once every year, you might need treatment touch-ups.
