Menopause largely impacts our sex organs and sexuality, resulting in a variety of urogenital symptoms that affect nearly 60 percent of women, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). “The decrease in estrogen, testosterone and progesterone can cause stress urinary incontinence and a decrease in libido,” says Duxbury, MA plastic surgeon Christine Hamori, MD. “Internally, the vaginal wall becomes significantly drier and thinner due to a loss of collagen and elastin, which can cause women to experience pain during sex and result in a loss of intimacy and self-esteem.”
Mary Jane Minkin, MD, obgyn and clinical professor of obstetrics at Yale School of Medicine, notes that vaginal dryness tends to occur as one gets further into menopause—“hot flashes tend to get better, vaginal dryness gets worse,” so she recommends a moisturizer like Replens, which is available over the counter. Louisville, KY obgyn Rebecca Booth, MD adds that, although OTC options are effective, she explains to patients that “lubrication may help women feel more slippery, but only estrogen inspires elasticity. Therefore, a topical estrogen cream might be a better solution, but it does a require a prescription.”
An at-home device called vFit ($495) also works to relieve dryness by emitting LED light and heat to internal tissue, which encourages blood flow and aids in natural lubrication.

To help tackle these issues and enhance sexual well-being for menopausal women, medical companies have created laser and radio-frequency (RF) devices—based on the science behind existing tightening and resurfacing technologies for the face and body—which are administered by gynecologists, dermatologists and plastic surgeons. If the concern is stress urinary incontinence (when you sneeze and a little urine leaks out), Viveve, ThermiVa, Votiva, FormaV and Emsella (electromagnetic energy) can strengthen the pelvic floor, “but they don’t actually tighten the vagina,” says Dr. Hamori. “Vaginal dryness can be reduced with erbium and CO2 laser devices such as Diva, MonaLisa Touch and CO2RE Intima.”
How PDO Threads Treat Temple Volume Loss 💫 Restore Natural Volume Smooth PDO threads are placed beneath the skin to gently fill hollowed temple areas, restoring subtle fullness without the use of dermal fillers. 💫 Lift and Tighten The threads also provide a mild lifting effect, improving skin laxity and enhancing the appearance of the outer brow and upper face. 💫 Stimulate Collagen Production Over the next several months, the dissolvable threads trigger the body’s natural collagen response — firming and tightening the skin from within for longer-lasting improvement. 💫 Refine Facial Contours By addressing both volume loss and skin laxity, PDO threads help restore the balanced, “inverted triangle” facial shape associated with youth. Why Choose PDO Threads Over Surgery or Fillers? PDO threads offer a nonsurgical, collagen-building alternative to traditional facelifts or filler-only correction. The results are natural, subtle, and long-lasting, with little to no downtime. Most patients return to normal activities the same day.
