Additionally, CO2 RE Intima utilizes a CO2 laser. CO2 lasers have been proven to remodel tissue with the formation of collagen and elastic fibers in atrophic skin. CO2 technology also provides physicians with the ability to treat both superficial and deep skin layers simultaneously and with the precision control they need over the intensity, pattern, and depth of ablation, which is very important for treatments to this intimate area.
CO2RE Intima is FDA cleared to treat all 3 of a woman’s intimate areas – the vaginal canal, the introitus, and the external vulva/labia. CO2RE Intima uses laser energy to relieve the signs of aging and childbirth and the changes and symptoms women may be experiencing related to vaginal wellness
With CO2re Intima, there is virtually no downtime. Patients can return to normal activities right after the procedure but should refrain from sexual activity for 7 days.
Many CO2RE Intima patients feel and see improvement after the first treatment, although the procedure calls for three treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart for optimal results. After the third treatment, patients should expect an annual maintenance treatment to sustain results.
The procedure is virtually painless, requires no anesthesia when performed intravaginally. Vulvar anesthesia is achieved with topical medication. The procedure typically takes around 15 minutes to treat both internally and externally.
