What is MonaLisa Touch?

MonaLisa Touch is a gentle laser therapy that helps improve vaginal health. It’s particularly helpful for women experiencing discomfort or dryness due to changes like menopause or childbirth. The treatment uses a special laser to stimulate the vaginal area gently, helping to revive and improve its health without needing surgery.

MonaLisa Touch Recovery Timeline

Recovering from MonaLisa Touch is usually quick and hassle-free:

  • Recovery Time: You can get back to your normal day almost right after the treatment.

  • Returning to Work: Most people can go back to work the next day.
  • Resuming Exercise: It’s best to take it easy and avoid heavy physical activity for about 3 days.
  • Visibility of Final Results: You might start noticing improvements after your first treatment, but the complete results usually show after about three sessions.

How Does MonaLisa Touch Procedure Work

Consultation

Your first step is a chat with your doctor where you’ll talk about your health history and what you hope to achieve with the treatment. This is a great time to ask any questions and share any worries you might have.

Before the Procedure

To get ready, you’ll need to:
