What is Juliet?

Different ages of a woman's life are accompanied by different experiences with regard to her intimacy and her sexuality, and are unavoidably associated with a variety of vaginal conditions. These may strongly affect the quality of life of a woman, both physically, psychologically as well as sexually. Childbirth (especially natural) and menopause are just two examples of events that cause a change in the intimate area and vaginal environment, each of them accompanied by different disorders.

Many women who experience unpleasant symptoms such as genital itching, irritation, poor vaginal lubrication, vaginal dryness and even pain during intercourse (dyspareunia) do not like to talk about these issues, sometimes not even with their gynecologist. They can be ashamed and think that they are the only ones going through these issues.

In fact, all of these symptoms are quite common in women of different ages and tend to worsen over time. That means that they are not temporary and they are not going to disappear if not treated.

Until recently, all these conditions were considered to be a consequence of the inevitable ageing process of the woman, and treatment was undergone only in very rare cases.Today, an increasing number of women are becoming aware of the possibility to improve the tone and functionality of that particular area, and consequently their quality of life, with minimally invasive procedures, such as the Juliet treatment by Asclepion.

What does vaginal rejuvenation mean?

Vaginal rejuvenation is not intended to be just an aesthetic treatment. A Juliet laser treatment leads not only to a tightening of the internal vaginal walls (often referred to as "rejuvenation"), but it also involves specific functional changes, for example the regaining of functionality when treating for stress urinary incontinence and also the restoration of tissue metabolism in the case of vaginal atrophy.

How does the Juliet treatment work?

The Juliet laser treatment improves women gynecological health thanks to a minimally invasive treatment whose goal is the stimulation of new collagen and elastin production, along with an improved vascularization of the vaginal mucosa. Similarly to the procedure used for facial rejuvenation, the Juliet laser treatment uses light energy to gently deliver energy to the tissue and stimulate it to produce new collagen. The special Erbium: YAG wavelength used for the treatment allows for reaching the sub-mucosal layers (lamina propria), rich in collagen that can be stimulated "selectively", meaning with no damage to the surrounding tissue.

How is the Juliet treatment performed?

The procedure is very similar to your annual check-up. Your doctor will insert the laser tip and the laser energy will be delivered in form of pulses.

No anesthesia is required (since neither incisions nor sutures are performed), however, a topical anesthetic may be applied if needed.

When can I expect the results?

The Juliet laser treatment leads to a restoration of the metabolism of connective tissue and to an improvement in the condition of the mucosa.
