A fast, simple and safe laser treatment that takes less than 5 minutes. The MonaLisa Touch® can help restore your gynecologic health especially when estrogen levels decline after menopause. The machine delivers gentle laser energy to the vaginal wall tissue that stimulates a healing response in the vaginal canal. A typical course of treatment is three procedures over 18 weeks. Many women report symptom relief after the very first treatment and even greater improvement after treatments 2 and 3.
The procedure will seem similar to your annual exam, and will likely be even quicker. Your healthcare provider will insert the laser into your vagina and deliver laser energy “pulses.” The total procedure time is less than 5 minutes.
The laser energy itself is virtually painless. Some patients report mild discomfort with the laser tip insertion during the first procedure if there is gynecologic dryness.
Many patients have reported that they experience relief right away. Virtually all patients have experienced relief by the second treatment.
MonaLisa Touch provides lasting results. A once-a-year single treatment is recommended to maintain symptom relief.* This can be done quickly and conveniently during your annual checkup.
“After years of dealing with problems related to low estrogen, I was skeptical and doubted that anything would work. But after a lot of thought, I realized that the issues I was experiencing were just as important as any other health issue. I was excited to hear about an alternative to expensive estrogen cream prescriptions.
Right away I was put at ease by Dr. Jaqua. Dr. Jaqua and his medical assistant were so sensitive to my needs and my comfort. He was professional and efficient. There was absolutely no pain or discomfort. The treatment was quick and I was able to return to work the same day! There were no surprises; my experience was just as it was explained to me.
The results have been amazing! I am thrilled by the improvement after just one treatment. I am no longer skeptical. I am happy that I went forward with the treatment and I want to spread the word so that other women can enjoy the powerful benefits of the MonaLisa Touch treatments. I am so happy I did this.”
“When I underwent the MonaLisa Touch procedure I was a little nervous and after the procedure, I came out almost bouncing off the wall, saying I cannot believe, there is no discomfort, such a short time commitment. I first began to see results from the MonaLisa Touch Procedure approximately 2 weeks after the initial procedure. “
“To find out that there was actually a laser that in 3 treatments could possibly provide me with what I hadn’t been getting in the last 10 years of trying. I was ecstatic. I think having the procedure helps me to feel like I can be in touch with just being a woman again. It can really affect your self-confidence, your self-esteem. And so I think that was a plus that I wasn’t really considering, that happened.”
“It really wasn’t until I realized that this was my body that was having the reaction due to menopause. I noticed a difference after my first procedure and then going back for the second there was a huge difference. Between the second and third treatment, a total opening, a softening, receptivity, sensitivity, that I haven’t had for years and years. Probably what MonaLisa Touch gave back to me, it gave me back confidence and made me want to date again. It made me feel like I can have a full relationship. I feel like I don’t have to hold back any more. I can just bring everything that I have back to the table, because I was holding back before and now I don’t have to.”
