Nonsurgical Vaginal Rejuvenation
Women have always been targeted a different kind of taboos since time immemorial. Women have been suffering from speaking out their minds, especially topics related to their vaginal and sexual health. In a more male-dominated setup, women often find it challenging to voice their opinions and thoughts, especially on the subject of sex which, till date, remains cloaked by numerous dogmas and stereotypes.
Although these debates can keep on flowing all through the blogpost, we will save it for some other day. Today, we will talk about the intimate health of a woman. The nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation is one of the most opted forms of procedure abroad; we thought of introducing in India as well. So, let’s get started!
What is Nonsurgical Vaginal Rejuvenation?
Nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation, a medical procedure, often understood to be a part of the plastic/cosmetic treatment discipline, helps in providing better hygiene and comfort to women. Due to the natural process of ageing, childbearing or any prior surgeries women are faced by certain vaginal discomforts and health risks. This nonsurgical procedure thus reduces the associated fears and post-treatment hazards alongside providing fast and almost instant solutions. It involves tightening of the vaginal tissues present in the walls for better intimate hygiene.Why do women require Nonsurgical Vaginal Rejuvenation?
There are certain biological changes that women go through which affect their genital hygiene. The most common ones, as discussed above are:- Natural ageing
- Childbearing
- Surgery (if any)
- Sagging Labia – The labia is basically the opening of the vagina. After pregnancy and/or due to ageing, the labia start losing fats and becomes wrinkled and flat. It also loses its elasticity and becomes saggy, which is why it causes irritation, sexual tensions and hampers their overall look as well.
- Weakened Vaginal tissues – The walls or layers of vaginal walls are made up of vaginal tissues. The tissues often expand and contract due to intercourse or delivery of a baby. The walls are very elastic which facilitates in the constant expansion and contraction. Often, as time passes, the ability of the walls to contract like earlier becomes difficult. This is because of the weakening of the tissues.
- Vaginal Atrophy – It leads to thinning and drying of the vaginal walls, occurring mainly after menopause. So, we know that this problem arises with elderly women, roundabout the age of 48 to 55. The problem also leads to distressing urinary symptoms with constant uneasiness.
- Urinary incontinence – This refers to the involuntary leakage of urine. It occurs more in females than males and takes place because of childbearing, menopause and ageing. Any other surgical procedures can also be held responsible for the same.
- Lack of Lubrication – The natural lubrication of the vagina may wear off leading to dryness because of hormonal changes taking place inside a woman’s body over the years. It can also occur due to chemicals in soaps, acting as irritants and allergies too. The dryness causes frustration and alleviates discomfort.
