Vaginal Rejuvenation

Improve your Gynecological Health, Sense of Well-Being, and Confidence in  the Havertown, PA and the greater Philadelphia areas

Just as using a laser to stimulate fresh collagen production can have a beneficial effect on visible skin, the treatment can also work to accomplish vaginal rejuvenation. For Vaginal Rejuvenation in Philadelphia, PA & Havertown, PA the Mind Your Skin team carefully selected the Juliet  system previously available only in Canada, France, Spain, Switzerland, Belgium, Luxemburg, and the Netherlands. It is an fractional erbium laser that provides safe (NO reported adverse events since its introduction into the U.S. market) and effective results with minimal to no down time. In particular, it addresses problems with intimate health and stress urinary incontinence. Tissue laxity can lead to dryness and sensation loss during sex. Loss of bladder control with coughing or sneezing, squatting and/or jumping happens to one in three women. This is not really a bladder problem perse, but a weakness in urethral closure or sealing ability (the connection channel to the outside).

How Does Vaginal Rejuvenation Work?

There are several hand-pieces available to customize a Juliet vaginal rejuvenation session, but they all work in generally the same way. The device sends light below the surface, impacting hundreds of tiny points in the tissue at once. The energy triggers cells to create new collagen.

Collagen is a protein that plays several roles in the body. One of its primary features is its ability to make tissue simultaneously strong, resilient, and flexible. It also creates a matrix home for hyaluronic acid molecules, which readily bind with water molecules to keep tissues properly hydrated.

Time ultimately causes both collagen and hyaluronic acid to break down faster than they can naturally be replaced. Consequently tissues can become dried out, less elastic, thin, and saggy. Vaginal rejuvenation addresses these problems.  Restoration of collagen and hyaluronic acid tightens and plumps the treated vaginal tissues and increases moisture content in the area.

Collagen production is gradual, so improvement in the vaginal tissues will unfold in the weeks and months after a session. Results are typically long lasting. The collagen eventually breaks down again, and the vaginal rejuvenation treatment is repeated as desired. Typically we do two initial treatments followed by one annual maintenance treatment.

What Can Vaginal Rejuvenation Treat?

Juliet stimulates collagen production, hence it is ideal for addressing conditions leading to laxity and dryness in the vaginal area.  Menopause and anti-hormone therapy, pregnancy and childbirth, chemotherapy, and certain surgeries trigger hormone shifts. Such undesirable changes impact optimal functioning.

Ideal patients are those who want to strengthen a weakened pelvic floor, and have stress incontinence. Similarly it is for those who want to address lubrication, and feelings of discomfort or pain during intercourse. A separate hand-piece/application can treat the outside for discoloration or laxity as well (see video above).

Requirements for Vaginal Rejuvenation Treatment

Before deciding on any course of vaginal rejuvenation treatment, it is important to share any short- and long-term goals. During a private consultation at Mind Your Skin we will ask questions and take desired results into consideration. Then we make a recommendation for a plan designed to help you achieve your goals. Other options include mesh or sling surgery, hormone replacement and herbal remedies.

We also know that the Juliet  system yields comparable or superior to other devices out there. Our own patient’s reports confirm this. These are patients who switched  to Juliet from treatment with other devices elsewhere. We are the only office for vaginal rejuvenation around and in Philadelphia and the Havertown area. with a Juliet system. In fact in a range of well over 50 miles.

Learn more at the Intimate Wellness Institute. We are evaluating a new device patients can use at home (vFit PLUS).

The FDA issued letters in August 2018 putting a number of manufacturers of similar devices on notice. In this case it was for essentially over-promising results.  Cutera/Juliet was NOT among those who were warned! Again, there have been NO reported side-effect in the US market.
