Over time, especially after childbirth, vaginal tissue can overstretch, creating a feeling of looseness (laxity) and reduced sensitivity in the vaginal area. This can lead to decreased satisfaction during sexual intercourse, creating a significant quality of life issue. Fotona tones and rebuilds the collagen of the vaginal walls, enhances the sensitivity of the vaginal receptors and contracts existing vaginal tissue, increasing vaginal tightness and improving sexual satisfaction.
Dryness and recurrent vaginal infections are treated through the rejuvenation of the vulvo-vaginal tissue, which improves vaginal lubrication and normalizes vaginal pH and flora. Fotona utilizes laser treatments to enhance the local immune system response and help eliminate chronic vaginal infections.

Stress Urinary Incontinence

Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) is an extremely common and distressing condition that affects a high percentage of women, with prevalence rates increasing with age. According to the American Urological Association, there is an estimated prevalence for urinary incontinence of 30% in women aged 30 to 60 years, with approximately half of the cases attributed to SUI (15%). Fotona is a safe and effective treatment for this indication, enabling women to enjoy a much more comfortable life – quickly and with no pain or downtime.
SUI involves involuntary leakage of urine in response to increased intra-abdominal pressure.

This condition may be caused by a loss of sub-urethral support, usually as a result of pelvic support structure damage. Patients often report varying severity of urine leakage during activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure such as coughing, sneezing, heavy lifting and physical activity. Using powerful energy to achieve a deep thermal effect, Fotona stimulates collagen renewal as well as contraction of the elastin fibers, inducing rejuvenation and tissue remodeling. The technological benefit of a long pulse enables the creation of this powerful thermal effect, which offers a significant advantage in such procedures.
It treats the entire pre-urethral space, increasing the thickness of the vaginal walls and providing better support to the mid urethra underside. The result is a significant reduction in SUI symptoms, improved control of urination, and long term patient continence.
