vaginal health

say goodbye to vaginal fatigue

The shyness around vaginal health often leaves patients struggling with symptoms they’re too embarrassed to talk about.

Let's talk feminine health. As women age, give birth, gain weight, or experience hormonal changes, their vaginal health changes. For some women, this change isn't an issue. For others, their quality of life is interrupted by unwanted leakage, dryness or irritation, and vaginal relaxation. Dr. Ron Brown defines vaginal fatigue as any disorder of function of the bladder or vagina. This can include unwanted bladder leakage, bladder urgency, vaginal dryness, vaginal looseness or relaxation, and Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause. Luckily, there are now a variety of non-invasive treatments that can help restore your quality of life.

vaginal fatigue: what is it and how to fix it

treatment options

monalisa touch

  • The MonaLisa Touch was designed to treat the painful symptoms that affect post-menopausal woman and restore normal vaginal lubrication.

    Living in pain is not fun — when this pain gets in the way of intimacy and makes you more susceptible to urinary problems it can be extremely frustrating. During treatment, a vaginal probe is used to deliver gentle, fractional CO2 laser energy to the vaginal wall. The energy from the laser targets the vaginal wall and painlessly reactivates the proper functions of the urinary and reproductive systems by triggering the production of new collagen. The laser used is gentle but effective. This non-surgical procedure requires no anesthesia and can provide relief after just one treatment. 

  • Those experiencing vaginal discomfort, pain during intercourse, frequent UTIs, and/or unwanted leakage.

  • MonaLisa Touch laser treatment is a simple procedure that can deliver both immediate and lasting relief and is clinically proven to work. The procedure will seem like your annual exam and likely be even quicker. A healthcare provider will insert a wand into the vaginal canal during the treatment. A “snapping” sound will be heard and you may feel mild vaginal heat. The treatment will last around 15 minutes.

    The MTL delivers gentle laser energy to the vaginal wall tissue that stimulates a healing response and enhances moisture levels in the vaginal canal, with minimal discomfort.

    Advantages include being in-office, no anesthesia, no downtime, symptom relief after one minute and takes less than 5 minutes. A typical course of treatment is 3 procedures over 18 weeks.

    This treatment is offered out of the Spruce Grove location.

btl emsella

  • Let’s start with the obvious: a leaky bladder is both uncomfortable and inconvenient. Urinary incontinence is much more common than you think, but luckily the BTL Emsella is a comfortable, non-invasive solution. Modelled after a chair, this treatment allows you to remain fully clothed so you can be as comfortable as possible.

    The BTL Emsella treats the entire pelvic floor as it stimulates 11,800 kegals in 28 minutes.The emsella treats incontinence and reduces vaginal laxity, while allowing patients to feel comfortable. A recent clinical study found that 95% of patients who underwent all six treatments reported improvement in their quality of life. 

  • Those seeking to reduce vaginal laxity while treating incontinence.

    Due to the physics of electromagnetic currents, hip and pelvic metal can be affected. Individuals with pelvic (low back rods) and hip (replacement) metal can not have these treatments. A history of a tubal ligation with clips or traditional pelvic surgery does not prevent the use of this technology.

  • The BTL Emsella was designed to make sure you are as comfortable as possible. You remain fully clothed and sit down in the BTL Emsella Chair as the pelvic floor is stimulated. During the treatment you can expect to feel a warm, tingling sensation along with vibrations.

    Treatment involves 6 sessions that each last 30 minutes. We suggest 3 treatments a week for 2 weeks or 2 treatments a week for 3 weeks. Treatments last at least one year and can be repeated when necessary.

    The BTL Emsella uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic technology to stimulate all parts of the pelvic floor – in 28 minutes the pelvic floor muscles will contract over 11,800 times. These contractions create hyperplasia and hypertrophy in the muscles, but just as importantly, it re-establishes the neural connections for firing the pelvic floor muscle group, re-educating patients on how to selectively contract the pelvic floor muscles. Meanwhile, the magnetic energy also appears to provide therapy to other neurons that may be causing urgency incontinence or overactive bladder.

    This treatment is offered out of the Sherwood Park location.

fotona

  • With Fotona laser, you can address a variety of feminine issues with one form of technology. Fotona is an FDA approved, non-ablative laser that utilizes photo-thermal energy to stimulate collagen production in both the vaginal walls and the urethra. This non-surgical vaginal tightening treatment helps to reduce vaginal laxity and reduce incontinence.

    Fotona Incontilase is a laser treatment that utilizes photo-thermal energy to stimulate collagen production to treat stress urinary incontinence.

    Fotona Intimalase is an innovative laser therapy for non-surgical, photo-thermal tightening of the vaginal canal to restore its optimal structure.

  • Those experiencing vaginal laxity, weakening of the pelvic floor, vaginal dryness, and/or urinary incontinence.

    A consultation is required by one of our health care practitioners to evaluate whether a woman is a suitable candidate.

  • Treatment is booked for three 20-30 minute sessions 1 month apart. A small amount of external vulvar gel is applied for pain killing (no pills are required). The patient can walk out after the procedure and resume normal duties. There is very little discomfort and patient satisfaction is very high.

tempsure vitalia

  • TempSure Vitalia is a non-invasive, non-hormonal, and chemical-free treatment designed to revitalize and restore your feminine health. The Vitalia uses therapeutic heat to temporarily increase local circulation and decrease pain and muscle spasms. The procedure is delivered using a probe specifically designed for your most sensitive areas.

    Many woman experience vaginal changes following menopause, childbirth, or vaginal injury. These changes often lead to a decreased quality of life and disruptions in our daily activities.

    A specially designed probe delivers heat to the targeted issue, which helps to stimulate collagen and elastin production. The new collagen formed is tight and dense, helping to restore both your confidence and quality of life in under 25 minutes. 

  • Those experiencing symptoms of urinary incontinence, vaginal dryness or irritation, decreased sexual pleasure, and/or vaginal laxity. 

  • TempSure Vitalia uses a small probe to treat the vaginal canal. The probe will be inserted and deliver therapeutic heat to the target tissue. The heat is delivered gradually while Vitalia's cooling system helps to keep you comfortable during the procedure.
