Vulvar CO₂ Laser Rejuvenation

Overview

Focused on the external (vulvar) tissue, this CO₂ laser treatment improves texture, elasticity, and overall appearance, for a refreshed, rejuvenated look and feel.

Benefits

• Improves vulvar skin texture and elasticity
• Refreshes overall appearance
• Non-surgical
• Pairs well with exosome therapy

The treatment

A comfortable in-office session; a series at 30-day intervals is generally recommended.

Recovery & results

Minimal downtime, with results developing progressively over the series.

It may help if you experience

• Vulvar skin that looks crepey, lax, or has lost firmness
• Changes in texture, tone, or pigmentation of the external tissue
• Dryness or a sensation of fragility in the vulvar area
• Tissue changes related to aging, hormonal shifts, or the postpartum period
• A wish to refresh the appearance of the vulva without surgery

What to expect

The fractional CO₂ laser is applied to the external vulvar tissue to stimulate collagen and renew the skin’s surface. Each session is performed in-office and usually takes around 20 to 30 minutes. A topical anaesthetic is applied beforehand for comfort, so most patients feel only a mild warmth or tingling during treatment.

A series is generally planned at 30-day intervals, with the number of sessions tailored to your tissue and goals during your consultation. There are no sutures and no need for general anaesthesia.

Results & maintenance

Because the treatment works by stimulating your own collagen, results build gradually over the course of the series and the weeks that follow each session. Many patients notice smoother texture and improved elasticity progressively, with the fuller effect appearing once the series is complete. Individual results vary depending on skin quality, age, and hormonal factors.

To preserve the improvement over time, Dr. Melissa Amoroso may recommend occasional maintenance sessions. The treatment also pairs well with exosome therapy as part of a broader rejuvenation plan.

Common questions

Is the treatment painful? Thanks to the topical anaesthetic, most patients describe the session as comfortable, feeling only mild warmth. Any sensitivity afterward is usually brief and easily managed.

How many sessions will I need? This depends on your tissue and goals; a series at 30-day intervals is typical, and Dr. Melissa Amoroso will outline a personalized plan during your consultation.

When can I return to normal activities? Downtime is minimal and most patients resume daily routines quickly; your doctor will advise when to resume intimate activity based on how your tissue responds.
