Vaginal dryness affects many women, especially women in the postmenopausal period. The result? Less pleasurable or even painful sex and general discomfort down there.
According to the Women’s Health Organization, 58% of postmenopausal women suffer from a lack of natural moisture, the hallmark of vaginal atrophy – the thinning and inflammation of the vaginal walls, often due to a drop in estrogen. It can also affect other women who are taking medication or who are struggling with thyroid problems.
“Vaginal atrophy is also seen very commonly in patients who have had cancer treatment and in those with low estrogen levels.”
Amy Knoetze, the national distributor for AQ Skin Solutions in South Africa.
The sequelae include discomfort during intimacy, loss of desire, and even urinary symptoms such as persistent UTIs.
Vaginal rejuvenation therapy is an avenue to explore if you’re struggling with vaginal atrophy, and it doesn’t have to be surgical or involve the use of hormones (in the form of hormone replacement therapy). For one, AQ Skin Solutions, the same brand that offers a treatment that rivals the vampire facial, uses the same growth factor technology for vaginal rejuvenation.
The AQ Vaginal Rejuvenation System
AQ Skin Solutions Vaginal Rejuvenation System (VRS) is a clinically proven vaginal rejuvenation solution. Using Growth Factor Technology, VRS relieves vaginal dryness, soothes irritation and improves elasticity. The latter can help tighten the vaginal walls in a way that can enhance both intimacy and female arousal.
What are growth factors?
Growth factors are highly specialized proteins that are naturally produced by your body. They are also “messengers” with an important job – telling other cells to proliferate, regenerate, and regulate. This is why they are so useful in skin care. You can instruct your body to do certain useful things, such as: B. to boost collagen production to protect and improve the elasticity of your skin.
Regarding VRS, AQ Skin Solutions used a proprietary elixir of all-natural growth factors to create a solution that’s not just another lube. Instead, it helps restore your vagina’s natural lubricity while increasing the collagen and elastin in the walls to firm and tighten your genetic potential.
“It’s important to note that AQ VRS performs better than hormone treatment for vaginal rejuvenation and is a completely hormone-free option,” says Amy. “Many women don’t want HRT (hormone replacement therapy) because it can put them at risk for heart disease and breast cancer, and they come to terms with the fact that a certain part of their life is over. But it doesn’t have to be – VRS literally changes lives.”
How it works
“This is a discreet at-home treatment that restores vaginal function and pH to a healthy pH level,” explains Amy. The therapy comes in small tubes that are given every other night after bathing just before bed. You should see and feel results within six weeks. “With all the new blood supply in the area, patients often report an increase in sexual arousal and heightened feelings. That’s a bonus side effect!” says Amy.
