The term 'vaginal rejuvenation' has received a lot of attention and scrutiny. According to an article by Lauri Romanzi, M.D. (http://www.urogynics.org/2010/06/20/vaginal-rejuvenation-defined/) public perception of the term seems to fall into any of three categories:- correction of incontinence and prolapse, improvement in the appearance of vulvar structures, and enhancement of female sexual gratification.
Vulvovaginal laxity (as with vaginal laxity) is associated with advancing age and the trauma of childbirth. Treatment of vulvovaginal laxity and related aspects in the past lay within a short spectrum heavily weighted at the ends. On one side stood non-invasive but minimally effective Kegel exercises to strengthen the pelvic floor, with risky, costly, and highly invasive surgery at the other end.
Only recently have alternatives appeared to fill in the centre of that range.
ln response to this gap, modalities harnessing laser or radiofrequency (RF) energy and others for vaginal use have emerged. B-Med is able to supply devices for this purpose.
