Vaginal Tightening & Urinary Incontinence Laser Treatment - a Taboo? | Toscana Medi Clinic Publika | Zaza's Review

Vaginal Tightening & Urinary Incontinence Laser Treatment - a Taboo? 

Let's have a chat about this issue and also my experience after having these controversial treatments!

Does it really work or just a medical myth? 

Hey All 💚

As you read my blog heading, I need to warn you that content might be offensive to others but this is purely shared as new knowledgeable facts that some of us thinks that it's a taboo subject to be even be speaking about it. 

But it's the year 2021 and I think for a reality that every woman has to know and understand the importance of taking good care of herself especially when it is about her own body including the private parts. 

 Vagina. Labia. Clitoris. It's OK to talk about them!

These clinical terms are still often treated like dirty words, and that's a problem. We can't even utter or describe the problem we're having and that's just how effective the culture of shame is, even today.

Women are often too embarrassed to ask or even share their health problems even with their doctors. Why is that? Why can't we figure out how to treat them? Why do we go unchecked and unreported for so long until the problem is no longer salvageable? Why are we,  women still spending years suffering in silence? This definitely has to stop!

What will affect your vaginal health?

Sex - Unprotected sex can result in a sexually transmitted infection. Forceful sex or an injury to the pelvic area can result in vaginal trauma.

Certain health conditions or treatments - Conditions, such as endometriosis and pelvic inflammatory disease, might cause painful sex. Scarring from pelvic surgery and certain cancer treatments also can cause painful sex. Use of some antibiotics increases the risk of a vaginal yeast infection.

Birth control and feminine-hygiene products - Barrier contraceptives, such as condoms, diaphragms and associated spermicide, can cause vaginal irritation. The use of sprays, deodorants or douches may cause irritation or make existing irritation worse.

Pregnancy and childbirth - If you become pregnant, you'll stop menstruating until after your baby is born. During pregnancy, vaginal discharge often increases. Vaginal tears are relatively common during childbirth. In some cases, an episiotomy — an incision made in the tissue of the vaginal opening during childbirth — is needed. A vaginal delivery can also decrease muscle tone in the vagina.

Psychological issues - Anxiety and depression can contribute to a low level of arousal and resulting discomfort or pain during sex. Trauma — such as sexual abuse or an initial painful sexual experience — also can lead to pain associated with sex.

Hormone levels - Changes in your hormone levels can affect your vagina. For example, estrogen production declines after menopause and during breastfeeding. Loss of estrogen can cause the vaginal lining to thin (vaginal atrophy) — making sex painful

If you notice something unusual or experiencing either signs or symptoms of any vaginal problems occurring, it's best to instantly make a check-up with your gynaecologist for further diagnosis. 

If you've encountered the same similar signs and symptoms. You can choose to use an over-the-counter medication however if your symptoms don't go away, please consult your doctor immediately. 

What are the common vaginal problems most mothers face?

One of the common vaginal problems that most mothers will face is Pelvic Floor Relaxation. If the supporting ligaments and connective tissues that support the uterus and the vaginal walls in place become weak. The uterus, bladder, rectum or vaginal walls might slip down (prolapse). This causes urine leakage when/during coughing, sneezing, exercising or even laughing and/or a bulge in the vagina.

What are the ways for us to overcome this problem? 

One of it you can do Kegel exercises. Kegel exercises can improve the tone of your pelvic floor muscles if you have prolapse, leaking of urine or weakness of the pelvic floor. Kegel exercises and other pelvic floor exercises performed during and after pregnancy helps strengthen vaginal tone and minimise your risk of organ prolapse into the vagina. 

Another way is to have a Vaginal Tightening  Laser Treatment. 

What is Vaginal Tightening  Laser Treatment for and is it effective?

Vaginal Tightening  Laser Treatment is a sort of broad term for vaginal corrective treatments that may be used for women going through menopause, or who are already postmenopausal and have vaginal discomfort, itching, burning, dryness, discomfort or pain with sexual intercourse as well as urinary incontinence. Lack of estrogen affects the vagina and external genital area making it dry and painful.  These procedures can be done for cosmetic reasons or to solve age-related problems.

Pro – Improves self-confidence.

Some studies have shown that Vaginal Tightening  Laser Treatment helps to thicken the fragile vaginal lining and enhance lubrication, with improvement in vaginal dryness, pain, and urinary symptoms. However, there are potential complications such as scarring, infection, pain and altered sexual sensation. 

 But don't worry, with the assistance and guidance from an expert and experienced licensed doctor. You should be in good hands. And for that, I trusted Lashela Dharmadass from Toscana Medi Clinic to assist me with these issues I'm facing after giving birth to 2 of my beautiful amazing children. 

Dr Lashela Dharmadass is a General Practitioner specializing in Aesthetic Only and base in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. She has a special interest in Aesthetics and has worked for more than 10 years in the Aesthetics industry.  

I've visited Toscana Medi Clinic last 3 weeks and I finally had the courage to get the treatments after much deliberation. One on one consultations with Dr Lashela Dharmadass to identify and distinguish each issue I have before proceeding with the treatments.

Is it really reliable?

Within weeks, there will be collagen remodelling and subsequent reduction in the size of the canal. 

I was finished with the procedure within 20-25 minutes. Honestly speaking, if you are not pain-tolerance, you might feel the tingling and slight hot shock from the laser but not to worry, it surely doesn't hurt much! It was smooth sailing for me though! 😘😘 

And yeah, you can just resume your activities straight away after the treatment. You don't feel a thing and there's no downtime. But it is advisable to wait at least 2-3 days before you can get intimate with your partner. 

Dr Lashela and I had a Q & A session regarding the treatment and procedures! Watch it on Toscana Medi Clinic Facebook Page! 

Results may vary for each individual. For normal birth moms, it might take approximately about 2-3 weeks to feel the difference whilst for Caesarians moms, you can immediately feel the difference in 1 week. 

And I waited 3 weeks just to see the improvements. I must say, it works for me. I no longer suffer from frequent leakage while doing simple house chores or laughing. I noticed that I do not wake up in the middle of the night anymore just to pee, which before affects my sleeping pattern and I suffered insomnia because of this. Now I can have a good night sleep.  

I am truly satisfied with this treatment and this is absolutely one of the greatest decisions making for I've made for myself. I might continue to get another session in the future. InsyaAllah. 

Do take note that, non-invasive vaginal rejuvenation treatments may not be permanent.  The effects of the treatment may be only temporary, lasting perhaps up to three years. 

But after that, not all vaginal problems can be prevented, regular checkups can help ensure that problems concerning your vagina are diagnosed as soon as possible. Don't let embarrassment hinder you from talking to your doctor about any concerns you might have about your vaginal health in the future.

Consult your doctor when in doubt about vaginal discharge or other vaginal concerns. Some vaginal symptoms may be a sign of a serious problem, so it’s best to be cautious.
