What Can Be Treated with Vaginal Resurfacing?

Vaginal relaxation, which can occur from childbirth and aging, can cause many side effects. Many women report decreased sexual sensation after giving birth, though vaginal resurfacing isn’t just about sex. In certain cases, women have had tampons fall out, heard “popping” sounds while walking, or experienced bladder control issues while laughing or sneezing.

If decreased sexual sensation is an issue for you, keep in mind that vaginal resurfacing helps tighten the vagina. Vaginal tightness is one of the best ways to increase friction and help sex feel good again.

How Long Does It Take to Perform?

We perform The FemTouch Procedure because it’s pain-free and surgery-free. Treatments don’t require sedation or anesthetic, and only take a few minutes to perform. The process involves inserting the small applicator tip into the vaginal canal. The probe releases fractional CO2 energy in a 360-degree pattern to completely affect the entire vagina.

What Is Recovery Like?

Because FemTouch is a gentle, non-invasive procedure, there is essentially no downtime after your session. Women often go right back to work after their appointment with us. We do recommend that you abstain from sexual intercourse for 24 hours after your treatment, and avoid extreme heat, like saunas and hot tubs for a day or two afterward.

We recommend three treatments of the FemTouch procedure to get the best results. After that, a once-yearly touch up can help keep your desired results.
