Abstract:
Introduction: Vaginal laxity drastically impairs women’s quality of life, suggesting there is a need for effective noninvasive treatments. Aim: The aim was to retrospectively assess the effectiveness and safety of the HIFU (High Intensity Focal Ultrasound) procedure for vaginal laxity in patients treated in our clinical practice during a one-year period. Methods: patients presented to our clinic complaining of manifestation of vaginal laxity were offered HIFU treatment. Effectiveness was assessed using a Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire. The safety and tolerability of the procedure was monitored in all patients. Results: As assessed by the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire, we show that 93.3% and 95.5% of patients experienced improvement of sexual gratification after 1 and 3 months, respectively, of HIFU treatment. None of the patients had categorized their vagina as being loose anymore after treatment. Conclusion: The results have confirmed that patients suffering from vaginal laxity can be effectively treated using HIFU procedure without adverse effects.
