What is Vaginal Dryness?

Vaginal dryness is a symptom that occurs when the body stops producing natural lubrication needed to keep vaginal tissue healthy and comfortable. Vaginal moisture helps to rid the body of dead skin cells and produce clean healthy tissue. Vaginal dryness can be caused by medical or psychological reasons.

How Much Does Treatment for Vaginal Dryness Cost?

Vaginal dryness treatment costs will vary depending on the particular treatment selected and the extent of treatment needed. All costs as well as any possible financing options will be discussed prior to treatment during your personal consultation at the Women’s Health and Cosmetic Services of Maryland.

What Causes Vaginal Dryness?

Vaginal dryness can be a symptom of another medical attention that may need attention such as depression, excessive stress and anxiety, and immune system disorders. It is natural for women to experience vaginal dryness during specific periods of life due to hormonal changes and a decrease in estrogen levels. This may include:
  • Menopause
  • Childbirth
  • Breastfeeding
  • Hysterectomy
  • Chemotherapy

What are the Symptoms of Vaginal Dryness?

Vaginal dryness can cause women much discomfort in the vaginal area. Symptoms include:
  • Increased risk for vaginal infections
  • Painful intercourse also known as dyspareunia
  • Vaginal Itching and burning
  • Bleeding following intercourse

What Vaginal Dryness Treatment Options are Available?

Laser treatments, including the MonaLisa® Touch and ThermiVa®, help target vaginal tissue and stimulate collagen production. The laser targets the damaged tissue using radiofrequency technology and heats it without damaging surrounding tissue. The heat causes new collagen to form, which, in turn, tightens and tones the vaginal area with new and healthy tissue.
PRP treatments use plasma and growth factors from your own blood to naturally increase the production of collagen. PRP can be combined with laser treatments for enhanced results and to help improve the healing process.

Dyspareunia Treatments

Painful intercourse or dyspareunia isn’t just uncomfortable. It can also be embarrassing for women, causing them to lose interest in sex, which can then put stress on personal relationships. Vaginal rejuvenation can help to increase lubrication and eliminate dyspareunia. Vaginal rejuvenation with the MonaLisa® Touch laser as well as ThermiVa® can help rebuild vaginal tissue by increasing collagen production.

What are the Benefits of Vaginal Dryness Treatment?

Treatment for vaginal dryness or dyspareunia can help women regain their sexuality. Improving lubrication helps make intercourse more enjoyable and reduces the chances of developing an infection. Treatments are non-surgical and require little to no downtime.
