Laser and intimate surgery: different procedures
Separating the instrument, procedure and objective prevents mistaken expectations.
Laser labiaplasty is surgery
Labial tissue is changed using CO₂ laser for cutting and coagulation. Stitches may be needed. A laser does not make the intervention non-surgical. The procedure’s extent must fit the clinic’s authorisation.
Fractional vaginal laser
Energy is applied to the lining using an applicator. The technique does not reconstruct muscles and is not the same as surgical vaginoplasty. Its potential use is assessed according to symptoms; results vary and benefits are not yet established for some indications. See vaginal laser treatment for more information.
The scope of our service
This website covers gynaecological care, laser treatments and minor intimate surgery. Operations requiring deep reconstruction or major-surgery facilities are outside this service. Assessment helps identify the appropriate approach for each concern.
The most useful questions
Ask which structure will be treated and how, what change is reasonably expected, what anaesthesia and follow-up are required, and what alternatives exist. This lets you compare actual procedures rather than marketing labels.
