Intimate Female Rejuvenation.
Intimate Female Rejuvenation. This does
not have to be a taboo subject and you do
not have to suffer in silence. Now we have
several effective options for vulvo-vaginal
rejuvenation to improve your intimate and
sexual health. It is ok to talk about intimate
and sexual health.
Contrary to popular belief, intimate health
does not only concern ladies after menopause.
If you look at the history of human
evolution- our life span has increased steadily.
Pregnancy and childbirth were hazardous
events and life expectancy was low. We are
all living longer and many women spend
more than 50% of their lives with intimate
health and menopausal issues such as stress
urinary incontinence, urinary infections,
vaginal dryness, irritation, discomfort or even
pain. Modern lifestyle, diet, alcohol, environmental
pollution etc. affect our general and
hormonal health also.
There has been enormous progress in
regenerative medical treatments and these
are commonplace for facial and body rejuvenation.
Did you know several of these treatments
can be applied to intimate areas also?
These treatments have become very popular
during recent years and we have several
studies and satisfied patients that attest to a
success story. Several women choose laser
therapy after childbirth to rejuvenate tissues
in their intimate areas.
So how do we start?
You have a doctor consultation and examination
takes place. A chaperone is available for
your comfort. A medical history and evaluation
takes place. This is followed by a treatment
plan, which may include one or more
of the available options.
We have several options available and a
treatment plan will be formulated in
consultation with you and your wishes. Your
treatment will not be performed the same
day but on a subsequent appointment at a
later date. This may include one or more of
the following options. We may recommend
a referral to other specialists where a multidisciplinary
approach is desirable. This is not
essential however and you can choose one
or more than one option to be carried out in
a discreet, professional, comfortable and
private way.
1] Bio-identical hormone therapy may be
recommended or it may be a conventional
HRT or oestrogen creams prescribed by your
GP. Blood tests may be required.
2] Laser treatment. We have several lasers
available. Choice of laser is based on your
specific concern. This may be lasers to
address pigmentation or vascular concerns.
You can be more prone to pigmentation in
intimate areas due to genetic predisposition,
ageing, your ethnicity, use of hormones such
as contraceptive pills or HRT. Lifestyle issues
such as tight clothing, irritation from
epilation, chafing or folliculitis causes
inflammation and post-inflammatory
hyperpigmentation.
