MonaLisa Touch FAQ
How does it work?
The MonaLisa Touch uses gentle laser energy that is delivered via a side-firing probe inserted into the vaginal canal. A two-part pulse targets surface (epithelial) tissue and deep (lamina propria) tissue to promote vaginal mucosal revitalization.
Where can I have this done?
The MonaLisa Touch is an in-office procedure performed by Dr. Usha Mantha at Verve.
Does the procedure hurt?
The procedure requires no anesthesia. Some patients may experience some discomfort the first time the probe is inserted, but the actual treatment is not painful. Many patients report that it feels like a gentle vibration.
How long does it take?
Patients receive three treatments, spaced six weeks apart, which each take less than five minutes to perform.
When will I see results?
Most patients feel improvement after the very first treatment, although the procedure calls for three treatments that are generally spaced over an18-week period.
How long does it last?
Patients should expect to come back annually for a maintenance treatment.*
*Your doctor will determine with you if follow up treatments are required.
Is this procedure safe for women with breast cancer?
Yes, the MonaLisa Touch therapy is particularly well suited for patients who cannot, or prefer not to receive estrogen therapy.
What happens to my vagina during menopause?
When the hormonal changes of menopause begin affecting your body noticeably, you may feel changes in your vagina resulting from a condition called vaginal atrophy, a common reaction to lower levels of estrogen in your body. You may have vaginal dryness, or burning or pain during intercourse or while urinating. Some women even experience mild urinary incontinence.
Many of these issues trace back to thinning of the soft tissues of the vagina. As collagen and elastin deteriorate under the surface of the vaginal walls, your body doesn’t automatically regenerate this tissue, although it retains the ability to do so -- if stimulated in the right way.
It’s also important to note that not every woman experiences the same symptoms, so it’s possible to go through the transition to menopause with none, some, or all of these effects.
