Vulvar & Vaginal Laser Procedures
Vaginal and vulvar laser treatments offer a non-surgical option for women experiencing dryness, irritation, laxity, or discomfort related to aging, hormone changes, or childbirth. These advanced procedures use targeted energy to support natural healing, improve tissue tone, and relieve symptoms without downtime or invasive surgery. At Complete Care ObGyn, we provide vulvar and vaginal laser procedures in Henderson, NV as part of comprehensive women’s health care.
If changes in vaginal health are affecting your comfort or confidence, laser therapy may be a safe and effective solution.
What Are Vulvar and Vaginal Laser Procedures?
Vaginal and vulvar laser treatments use fractional CO₂ or erbium-based laser technology to deliver controlled energy to the vaginal canal or vulvar tissue. This energy helps:
- Stimulate collagen and elastin production
- Improve blood flow and tissue hydration
- Restore vaginal tone, elasticity, and moisture
Treatments are performed in-office, typically take less than 30 minutes, and require little to no anesthesia.
Who Can Benefit From Laser Vaginal Therapy?
Laser therapy may benefit women who want to improve vaginal or vulvar health without surgery or hormone-based treatments.
This treatment may help relieve symptoms related to:
- Vaginal dryness or itching
- Pain during sex (dyspareunia)
- Mild urinary leakage
- Vaginal laxity after childbirth
- Vulvar irritation or sensitivity
- Postmenopausal tissue changes
Laser therapy is often chosen by patients who cannot use or prefer to avoid hormone replacement therapy, including some postmenopausal women.
What to Expect During Treatment
Vaginal and vulvar laser procedures are quick and generally well tolerated.
- A small laser device is inserted into the vaginal canal or applied externally to the vulvar area
- Controlled pulses of energy stimulate tissue regeneration
- Most patients feel mild warmth or vibration
- The session lasts about 15 to 30 minutes
You may return to normal daily activities the same day. Your provider may recommend avoiding sexual activity or tampon use for a short period after treatment.
How Many Sessions Are Needed?
A typical treatment plan includes three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Some patients notice improvement after the first treatment, while optimal results develop gradually. Maintenance sessions may be recommended annually.
Is Vaginal Laser Therapy Safe?
Vulvar and vaginal laser procedures are FDA-cleared for gynecologic use and are performed by trained medical professionals. Side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as brief redness or sensitivity.
Laser therapy may not be recommended if you:
- Are currently pregnant
- Have an active vaginal or urinary infection
- Have a history of gynecologic cancer or abnormal Pap tests without medical clearance
A consultation helps determine whether laser therapy is appropriate for your symptoms and health history.
