What is the MonaLisa Touch®?
The MonaLisa Touch® is a laser device that delivers gentle, fractional CO2 laser energy to the vaginal wall tissue. The tissue responds by creating new collagen, which results in increased moisture and elasticity and relief from symptoms such as burning, itching, and dryness.
How does the MonaLisa Touch® work?
The laser energy creates miniaturized wounds in the vaginal wall tissue, stimulating the body’s natural healing response. This results in the production of new collagen, which leads to increased moisture and elasticity.
Is the MonaLisa Touch® safe?
Yes, the MonaLisa Touch® is FDA-cleared and has been used safely in thousands of procedures worldwide!
How long does the MonaLisa Touch® procedure take?
The procedure itself takes less than five minutes. However, you will need to allow additional time for numbing cream to be applied before the procedure.
How many MonaLisa Touch® treatments will I need?
Most women will need three treatments spaced six weeks apart. However, some women may need additional treatment, depending on their skin’s response to the laser energy.
What can I expect after a MonaLisa Touch® treatment?
You may experience some mild soreness and redness immediately after the procedure, but this should resolve within a few hours. You can resume all normal activities and sexual activity on the same day as your treatment.
How long will the results of the MonaLisa Touch® last?
The results of the MonaLisa Touch® are long-lasting but not permanent. You may need occasional touch-up treatments every year or two to maintain optimal results.
Does insurance cover the MonaLisa Touch®?
At this time, the MonaLisa Touch® is not covered by insurance. However, many women find that the cost of the procedure is offset by the savings on medications and other treatments for vaginal dryness and related problems.
