How MonaLisa Touch is Transforming Vaginal Health
Have you ever wanted to reclaim your comfort, intimacy, and confidence? For millions of women, menopause brings more than just hot flashes and mood swings. Vaginal dryness, pain during intercourse, and urinary issues can significantly impact quality of life. But what if there was a safe, non-invasive solution that could restore your vaginal health and bring back the vitality you deserve?
At Walnut Lake OBGYN & Wellness in West Bloomfield, MI, we offer MonaLisa Touch, an innovative treatment that provides effective relief for women experiencing symptoms of menopause, vaginal issues, and hormonal changes. Whether you’re postmenopausal or struggling with estrogen depletion, this advanced therapy may be the answer you’ve been looking for.
What is MonaLisa Touch?
MonaLisa Touch is a fractional carbon dioxide laser treatment specifically designed for vaginal rejuvenation. The procedure gently delivers energy to the vaginal wall tissue, promoting natural cell regeneration and stimulating collagen and elastin production. Essentially, it works by bringing the cells in your vaginal walls back to the healthy level they were at before menopause. The treatment is very similar to that of a facial laser.
Why It Matters: The Impact of Menopause & Estrogen Loss
As women age, particularly during and after menopause, the body’s production of estrogen declines. This hormonal shift can lead to a condition known as vaginal atrophy. It affects millions of women and includes symptoms such as:
- Vaginal dryness
- Burning or itching
- Painful intercourse
- Urinary urgency or discomfort
Traditional treatments like hormone replacement therapy aren’t suitable for everyone, especially breast cancer survivors. MonaLisa Touch offers a hormone-free alternative that works at the cellular level to rejuvenate vaginal tissue and restore comfort.
What Conditions Does MonaLisa Touch Treat?
MonaLisa Touch is more than a cosmetic procedure. It’s a clinically supported solution to real health concerns. Here are some of the conditions it effectively addresses:
- Vaginal dryness, irritation, or bleeding
- Pain during intercourse (dyspareunia)
- Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD)
- Chronic urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- Urinary urgency or burning
- Stress urinary incontinence
- Lichen sclerosus (a chronic vulvar skin condition)
- And more
By targeting the root causes of these symptoms, MonaLisa Touch improves both vaginal health and overall quality of life.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
The procedure is intended for women between the ages of 45 and 55 or older, who are experiencing or have gone through menopause. However, women outside this range may benefit as well. You may be an ideal candidate for MonaLisa Touch if you are postmenopausal and experiencing symptoms of vaginal atrophy, have undergone breast cancer treatment and cannot take hormonal therapy, experience discomfort during intimacy, or suffer from chronic UTIs or urinary issues.

What to Expect During Treatment
Patients are often surprised by how quick and painless the MonaLisa Touch experience is. It involves a total of three treatments, spaced six weeks apart, right here in our office. Each session takes less than 10 minutes with no anesthesia required and most patients experiencing little to no discomfort during the procedure.
After treatment, patients are able to return to their normal activities immediately with no downtime needed. While some may notice improvement after just one session, the best results usually appear after completing the full series of three treatments.
Are There Any Side Effects?
Most women tolerate MonaLisa Touch treatments very well, but like any medical procedure, there is the possibility of minor side effects. Some patients may experience mild vaginal bleeding, light discharge, tenderness, itching, or a slight burning sensation following treatment. These effects are typically short-lived and resolve on their own within a few days. If any discomfort persists or causes concern, be sure to contact your doctor for guidance.
Real Results, Real Relief
Women who undergo MonaLisa Touch report dramatic improvements in symptoms. Enhanced moisture, reduced pain, better urinary control, and a renewed sense of confidence are just some of the life-changing benefits.
