Understanding Vaginal Laxity (or Loose Vagina)

Non-surgical Treatments for Vaginal Laxity (or loose vagina)

Non surgical options include simple stretching exercises for various pelvic floor muscles. The most effective out of this is Kegel Exercise.  You should understand the correct posture and method of doing the same, and be consistent to start seeing improvement in vaginal tightening.

Other options available include vaginal creams and lotions which are freely available in retail. 

Additionally, devices such as vaginal cones and biofeedback machines can aid in performing these exercises correctly. (please describe the chair).

i. Minimal Invasive Treatments for Vaginal Laxity (or loose vagina)

As the name suggest, the Minimal Invasive Treatments mostly impact the superficial layers of the tissue. There is no incision or stiches involved in the procedure and of course the recovery time after the procedure is very quick.

The minimal invasive procedures provide high quality visible results in a short duration of time and are known to be the most secure treatment for vaginal laxity.

ii.  Jett Plasma Vaginal Tightening Treatment

Jett Plasma is the latest innovation in the field of reconstructive & cosmetic gynaecology. It is a patented technology that helps rejuvenate the complete vulvovaginal tissue (internally the vaginal canal and the external vulvar region). The treatment is very effective in mitiating and treating disease conditions. Since this technology is the most contemporary, it is a drastical improvement over multiple reatment characteristics and techniques, and is showing very promising results. 

This is the newest technology using the principle of membrane depolarization, reverse electroporation, and het to activate the formation of new collagenous tissue. This breaks down and replaces the old tissue. A stronger and more elastic fibrous structure and tissue rejuvenation occurs.

iii. Lazer Vaginal Tightening Treatment

This is non-surgical procedure that uses laser pulses to the surface of the vagina and vulva. These pulses are specially engineered to produce a mild heating effect, which in turn stimulates the formation of new collagen and strengthens the tissue, giving a firmer and tighter quality.

iv. Radiofrequency Vaginal Tightening Treatment

A non-surgical procedure which uses Radiofrequency to gradually warm up the tissue in the vagina, stimulates blood flow and formation of collagen in the area. This plumping action tightens the muscles and helps decrease the diameter of the vaginal canal to strengthen vaginal muscles. This also treats vaginal and labial dryness.

All the above treatments are based on a simple principle – rejuvenate the superficial lining of the vagina (some also include the external vulva region rejuvenation), to promote collagen remodelling and tighten the vaginal wall with the help of a probe. The probe is moved slowly and gently inside and out of the vaginal area. The procedure itself is short ( < 1 hour), does not have any side effects and can be done in an OPD (outpatient) settings.

The process may be repeated a few times over several weeks to ensure improvement and achieve success in the desired vaginal tightening.

This procedure also does not have any downtime, that means the women can have intercourse before and after the procedure.

It if however, of utmost importance, that the women selects her Healthcare Provider very critically. Only a skilled reconstructive & cosmetic gynaecologist who is very well experienced on multiple technologies and a set up that has all options available ( and is not forcing down the only option available to them), must be chosen.

Sometimes Injectable fillers are recommended to add volume and firmness to the vaginal tissues, providing immediate results.
