Evidence, Risks and Alternatives
The TGA’s review found insufficient clinical evidence to support the therapeutic use and long-term safety of energy-based devices for vaginal rejuvenation. Fotona Er:YAG non-ablative SMOOTH mode indications for genitourinary syndrome of menopause, stress urinary incontinence, vaginal relaxation syndrome and prolapse were removed from the approved indications.
Do not rely on device marketing to choose care. Discuss the cause of your symptoms, established management options, their benefits and risks, and whether specialist referral is appropriate with your GP or another suitable health professional.
Potential harms associated with vaginal laser procedures include pain, burns, scarring, infection and pain during sexual activity. A possible benefit is not guaranteed. Seek medical advice if you have concerns following a previous procedure.
