Vaginal Rejuvenation And Mothers
Can't kegal exercises just tighten up a vagina?
Kegels don't work. Women throughout the world have come and told me, “Doctor, kegels don't work.” I have one patient from Chicago. She said that she was up to 180 kegels a day and for eighteen months no change. She had two children. And then she started to see elctromechanical stimulation, eighteen months, no change. She had laser vaginal rejuvenation and she's as happy as she can be. She said, “Doctor, if kegels was an Olympic event, I would win it.” But they don't work. We know kegel don't work, so women want alternatives. Just don't tell them, “Hey, go do kegels.” They don't work.
Can laser vaginal rejuvenation help an incorrectly healed episiotomy?
With the Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute, we will see patients coming in requesting all kinds of things. "Doctor, I had a ring in my labia minora and it tore through, and it's like a V now." We'll reconstruct that. "You know, I have this scar from my episiotomy," or things like that. We'll reconstruct those things. For birth trauma and birth injuries with these techniques we can enhance and restructure in these particular types of problems.
What is postpartum recontouring?
Patients will call us, "Doctor, I'm six months pregnant, I'm eight months pregnant. How soon can I have laser vaginal rejuvenation?" Well, you have to wait for six weeks after you deliver. Why six weeks? It is because the female reproductive tract is back to normal in six weeks. If they had a c-section, we ask the patient to wait two months.
Why do some women retain a 'tightness' while others feel a 'looseness' after childbirth?
People are different. Some people, what we will see, not bad after the first child, second child. Some people we can see, after the first child, they're very, very relaxed. But basically what we see, first child, the patient will tell you, "Wasn't bad." Second child, worse and worse and worse. Second, third, fourth. So they say, "Doctor, I don't feel anything." So what we really see, is not all about the man. It's about the woman. Women want to have the best sexual experience possible.
What's a 'Mommy Makeover'?
We see a lot of women coming in, worldwide, requesting my wonder woman make over. What they're doing, I want laser vaginal rejuvenation, designer vaginal laser-plasty. I want lipo-sculpturing. I want Brazilian butt augmentation. They may want a breast lift, breast augmentation or tummy tuck. Then I bring in my plastic re-constructive surgeon to do the breasts or the tummy tuck. So what is combined procedures. So women are coming in more and more. It is becoming more and more popular for this wonder woman make over where they are having multiple procedures, designer vaginal laser-plasty, laser vaginal rejuvenation, combined with other cosmedical procedures.
Does weight affect vaginal relaxation?
Weight can cause some problems. We can see problems with vaginal relaxation, we can see problems with what we call a herniation, or cystoceles, rectoceles and those kind of things, yes we can.
