Laser Therapy : A treatment aimed at eliminating vaginal dryness, firming, and vaginal narrowing that combines laser and heat is neither invasive nor painful.
A device such as CO2, for example, releases laser wavelengths that treat pigmentation, aging, and vaginal constriction with the same laser energy, which creates heating and shrinkage and results in immediate and long-term results at the end of treatment. Two to three treatments are required for optimal results.
PRP treatment: This treatment uses the blood of the treated blood and with it helps improve and increase the sensitivity of the tissue to the vagina and clitoris. In treatment, the patient's blood is pumped and transferred to a device that separates the blood from the blood (plasma) proteins, which return to the outer part of the vagina and the areas known as orogenic (such as the clitoris) in particular. They will affect the rapid blood flow to the tissue, thus improving the quality of the tissue and increasing the intensity of the sensitivity. The result is increased pleasure in touch and stimulation.
