Intimate Aesthetic Concerns

Overview

Intimate aesthetic concerns refer to both aesthetic and functional changes in the genital area, such as reduced elasticity, dryness, or alterations in appearance that may affect comfort and confidence.

Types of intimate aesthetic concerns can be broadly categorised as follows:

  • Elasticity-related concerns involves loss of elasticity and firmness in the vaginal area.
  • Moisture-related concerns involve dryness and discomfort, often related to hormonal changes.
  • Aesthetic concerns involve visible changes in appearance such as hyperpigmentation that may impact self-confidence.

The common symptoms of intimate aesthetic concerns include: 

  • Reduced elasticity
  • Dryness
  • Discomfort
  • Aesthetic concerns

The key causes of intimate aesthetic concerns include:

  • Aging
  • Childbirth
  • Hormonal changes
  • Lifestyle factors

A healthcare provider can diagnose intimate aesthetic concerns through physical examination and patient consultation.

Available treatment options include:

  • Vaginal rejuvenation
  • Forma V (radiofrequency treatment)
  • Platelet-rich plasma therapy
  • Laser treatments

Consult a doctor if symptoms such as: 

  • Persistent dryness
  • Discomfort
