MonaLisa Touch Therapy is a minimally invasive treatment used to improve the health and pliability of the vaginal mucosa or inner lining of the vagina.
The laser uses light energy to penetrate deep into the layers of the vaginal wall to stimulate collagen. The vaginal tissue returns to a state that was present prior to the changes induced by menopause, like atrophy (thinning of the vaginal wall) and dryness due to a decrease in estrogen.
