How Vaginal Changes Can Be Addressed with Femilift
Table of Contents
Vaginal atrophy may be causing you symptoms like dryness, itching and redness, and general discomfort. It is an issue many patients face, particularly during the menopausal phase. You may not pursue treatment, mistakenly assuming that these symptoms are simply an inevitable part of ageing.
You should know that the discomfort you experience is not a natural consequence of growing older, and treatments are available to ease your symptoms and leave you feeling more at ease and self-assured.
At The Doctors Laser Clinic in Norwich, respected for aesthetics and laser treatments, you can access the advanced FemiLift® system, which is designed to restore vaginal function and overall health.
Typical Femilift Testimonial:
“I went to see Kathy because having reached the menopause I was finding sex nearly impossible. The skin of my vagina was so thin, it would become inflamed after sex and I was having a problem with urethritis and bladder infections due to lack of oestrogen. The doctors wouldn’t give me HRT because of ovarian cysts. The first session with Kathy I was not sure what to expect, but apart from a mild tingling sensation it did not hurt at all. I felt some improvement in my skin, but not much extra moisture. After 6 weeks I returned for a second session, this time a little stronger but again no pain.
After this session I noticed a definite improvement in my skin texture, it felt stronger and more lubricated. Sex began to improve a bit, although I was still nervous. I had my 3rd session 6 weeks later and after that my skin felt more elasticated and plump, and a lot more moisture inside.
My sex life has improved beyond my wildest dreams, I am no longer afraid to have sex and this has improved my relationship with my husband after so many years of tension. I cannot recommend this treatment enough, it really is a life-changer.”
The Basics Of Vaginal Atrophy
Also known as atrophic vaginitis, vaginal atrophy occurs when oestrogen levels decline, resulting in noticeable changes in your vaginal tissues, such as reduced elasticity and moisture. This hormonal drop can render the vaginal walls dry, thinner, and inflamed, leading to a range of discomforting symptoms.
Often seen after menopause, and sometimes referred to as genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), vaginal atrophy can manifest through various signs, including:
- Vaginal dryness
- Itching or burning sensations
- Unusual vaginal discharge
- Discomfort during intercourse
- Urinary leakage
- Mild bleeding following intercourse
A loss of vaginal tone may also be a symptom of vaginal atrophy, which can diminish sexual satisfaction for you and your partner. These tissue changes might disturb you natural pH balance, thereby increasing the risk of yeast and urinary tract infections.

How FemiLift can help
FemiLift is a non-invasive procedure designed for patients experiencing vaginal atrophy. The treatment uses laser energy to stimulate the natural repair process within your vaginal tissues. A wand-like applicator is gently inserted to deliver controlled pulses of laser energy directly to the affected areas.
These energy pulses penetrate the vaginal wall and target the regions where collagen and elastin are produced. These proteins play an important role in maintaining the structure and elasticity of your vagina. Additionally, the heat generated by the laser encourages the production of natural lubricants, which can restore moisture, support a balanced pH level, and alleviate discomfort.
When to consider FemiLift
FemiLift may be a suitable option if you wish to:
- Relieve itching, burning, and discomfort associated with vaginal atrophy
- Restore vaginal firmness that may diminish during menopause or following childbirth
- Lower the occurrence of urinary tract and yeast infections
- Alleviate symptoms of urinary incontinence
- Heighten sexual satisfaction and sensations
Since the procedure does not involve surgery, you need not be concerned with risks related to anaesthesia. Many patients observe improvements within a few weeks as tissue remodelling takes place. Each session lasts approximately 20–30 minutes, with additional treatments scheduled as required to maintain the benefits.
