Overview

What is DiVa® Laser Vaginal Therapy?

diVa® Laser Vaginal Therapy is a non-surgical treatment that uses hybrid fractional laser technology to address common intimate health concerns. It works by gently resurfacing the vaginal canal and stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers, restoring elasticity and moisture while improving tissue strength. The treatment is quick, comfortable, and highly customizable based on individual needs.

Each session uses a single-use quartz dilator paired with a laser handpiece to deliver dual wavelengths of energy. One resurfaces the tissue while the other penetrates deeper to promote remodeling. Most treatments take just 3-5 minutes with minimal to no discomfort and no required downtime. diVa® is ideal for women experiencing changes from childbirth, aging, menopause, or hormonal shifts.

How it Works

diVa® uses hybrid fractional laser technology to deliver both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to the vaginal wall.

What it Treats

diVa® treats vaginal dryness, laxity, irritation, painful intercourse, and mild urinary incontinence due to aging, childbirth, menopause, or hormonal changes.

Procedure Time

Each session takes approximately 3-5 minutes. The treatment is performed in-office, with no anesthesia needed and minimal discomfort reported by most patients.

Eligibility

Candidates include women experiencing intimate concerns such as dryness or laxity due to hormonal decline, postpartum recovery, or aging-related tissue changes.

Recovery & Downtime

Patients can resume daily activities immediately, though intercourse and tampon use should be avoided for 48 hours after each session per provider guidance.

What to Expect Before, During, and After DiVa® Laser Vaginal Therapy

Before DiVa® Laser Vaginal Therapy

Your provider will review your medical history, discuss symptoms, and assess your candidacy. You may be asked to avoid intercourse or tampon use for 24 hours before treatment.

During DiVa® Laser Vaginal Therapy

A single-use handpiece is inserted comfortably into the vaginal canal. The laser delivers energy in a 360-degree pattern to resurface tissue and stimulate collagen. Treatment is quick and tolerable.

After DiVa® Laser Vaginal Therapy

Expect light spotting or mild discharge. Most patients resume regular routines immediately but should avoid intercourse or tampons for 48 hours to allow for optimal healing.

Potential Risks and Side Effects from DiVa® Laser Vaginal Therapy

Temporary spotting

Following treatment, some women may experience light spotting or a thin, watery discharge. These symptoms are temporary and typically resolve on their own within 24 to 48 hours without any medical intervention.

Tissue sensitivity

It’s common to experience mild swelling, tenderness, or sensitivity in the treated area after the procedure. These effects are generally short-lived and resolve without the need for medication or follow-up care.

Temporary discomfort

A small number of patients may report sensations of warmth, cramping, or light pressure during or shortly after treatment. These are normal responses and usually subside within a few hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

A typical course involves three diVa® sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. However, your provider may personalize the schedule based on your anatomy and goals. Many patients return annually for maintenance to preserve and prolong their results and overall vaginal tissue health.

Most patients find the treatment very tolerable. The sensation is often described as warmth or a light pressure within the vaginal canal. No numbing or anesthesia is required, and most women are surprised at how quick and easy the session feels from start to finish.

Yes. diVa® is a non-surgical procedure with no downtime. You can go back to work or resume daily routines immediately after treatment. Just avoid inserting tampons or engaging in sexual activity for 48 hours to allow the tissue proper healing time.

Improvements can begin to appear within weeks of your first treatment. However, most patients see the most noticeable results after completing all three sessions. These improvements can continue to build over time as collagen and tissue remodeling progress.

diVa® is not recommended for women who are pregnant, have an active vaginal infection, or certain uncontrolled medical conditions. A full evaluation with your provider is essential to confirm whether the treatment is appropriate and safe for your current health status and personal history.
