NeuViva™ Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation treats a woman’s most private, intimate challenges with the utmost effectiveness, simplicity and discretion. By utilizing fractional CO2 laser technology NeuViva™ treatments are able to treat vaginal health symptoms like vaginal dryness or vaginal itching, vaginal pain with intercourse, as well as urinary stress incontinence. Best of all, NeuViva™ Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation treatments are fast, safe and require no downtime for recovery.

 

Nueviva Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Restores Healthy Tissue

Can a woman’s vagina be restored to its healthy youthful state? Dr. Daniel Katz, director of Premier Women’s Center, says that because the lining of the vagina, the epithelium, is basically skin, the answer in many cases is, “yes.” Dr. Katz says that NeuViva™  Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation works on the same principles as dermatological facial laser treatments and has proven effective for many women.

For women who experience mild stress incontinence when doing aerobics, or at other, often inconvenient, times, NeuViva™ laser treatments are a solution that restores a woman’s feeling of health and self-confidence. Dr. Katz says, “There’s no need to feel embarrassed about mild stress incontinence. It is a medical issue that NeuViva™ can treat with minimal discomfort.”

In addition to stress incontinence, vaginal health issues such as dryness, burning or pain are commonly experienced by post-menopausal women, but can also affect woman who have had a hysterectomy or cancer therapy. There are many reasons why this condition can occur and it affects millions of women. Women who would rather not use Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), due to cancer concerns or uncomfortable side effects, also find that NeuViva™ provides the benefits of HRT but without the worries.

 

A Five Minute Treatment Successfully Restores Vaginal Health

NeuViva™ is a 5-minute treatment that is performed in the doctor’s office.  Typically a patient has three treatments in sequence and one additional free follow up visit at the end of a year. The patient is awake and the results often are felt within a few weeks and continue improving over six to nine months. From then on the effects are long lasting.

How different does NeuViva™ make a woman feel? Because the Fractional CO2 laser technology resurfaces the vaginal epithelium, it restores healthy collagen and revitalizes the tissue to its original moisture, plumpness, buoyancy and lubrication. For younger women who feel “stretched out” by childbirth, NeuViva™ gives a sense of comfortable fullness again.

 

A Positive Side Effect: Better Sex

Dr. Katz describes one patient who said that she “had been in pain every day of her life for 10 years.” After her second NeuViva™ treatment, she only experienced pain “a couple of days in 6 weeks.” Eventually, she had no pain at all. In addition, high impact aerobics caused her “no pain, no leakage.” For her, pain during intercourse became a thing of the past.

If you have seen someone who has had laser facial resurfacing, you know how amazingly good it can look. Patients who have suffered vaginal dryness, pain during intercourse or mild stress incontinence, can often have similar long lasting results.

Dr. Katz comments, “there is no longer any reason for a woman to suffer in silence, NeuViva™ can offer relief and a very successful outcome. That’s why Premier Women’s Center chose to offer this helpful service to our patients.”
