Just like you, many post-menopausal women are experiencing changes that can affect a woman’s quality of life in unexpected ways, leading to many unpleasant symptoms.

MonaLisa Touch is a new treatment that uses laser energy to treat the symptoms you may be experiencing. MonaLisa Touch is a medical laser that delivers controlled energy to the vaginal tissue so cells make more collagen, thus, promoting a return to vaginal health.

A multisite study was conducted by two leading Urogynecologists who are experts in the field of post-menopausal vaginal health; Dr. Mickey Karram, Director of Fellowship Program on Female Pelvic Medicine & Reconstructive Surgery at The Christ Hospital, Cincinnati, OH and Dr. Eric Sokol, Associate Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Stanford University Medical Center. Additionally, recent results from a trial evaluating the laser treatment on postmenopausal women and breast cancer survivors who are experiencing vaginal health issues shows positive results and a high patient satisfaction rating.

The MonaLisa Touch is a quick, simple and safe procedure that can be done in your physician’s office. The procedure is typically performed by an obstetrician/gynecologist.

The in-office procedure is virtually painless, requires no anesthesia and typically is done under 5 minutes.

Patients receive three 5 minute in-office treatments that are spaced six weeks apart.

Most MonaLisa Touch patients feel improvement after the very first treatment, although the procedure calls for three 5 minute treatments that are generally spaced over an 18-week period.

After the third treatment, patients should expect to come back annually for a maintenance treatment.

Patients can return to normal activities after the procedure, but should refrain from sexual activity for 2-3 days. Your doctor will determine a post-procedure regimen that is right for you.

The MonaLisa Touch is appropriate for any female who has gone through menopause, as well as those who are experiencing a change in their vaginal health as a result of a hysterectomy or breast cancer treatments.
