How The MonaLisa Touch Works

Mona Lisa touch

A new non-surgical, laser-based treatment is available for vaginal atrophy, dryness, discomfort, and dyspareunia. Women who are suffering from common vaginal symptoms after menopause, pregnancy, or radiation cancer treatment, can now get help by undergoing the Mona Lisa laser treatment procedure. Many women suffer from vaginal atrophy in silence; and unfortunately, many of them find current treatments for this condition to be ineffective. Vaginal atrophy is mostly caused by hormonal changes associated with menopause; however, the condition may also affect women with decreased estrogen production due to breastfeeding or cancer. It is characterized by inflammation, dryness, and thinning of the vaginal walls, which can make sexual intercourse very uncomfortable and painful. It may also contribute to problems with urination.

The Mona Lisa Touch uses lasers to stimulate collagen.
