MonaLisa Touch cosmetic treatment
Eve Clinic in Leamington Spa provides a wide range of cosmetic treatments for body but also takes into account more intimate and more problematic or taboo issues like vulvovaginal conditions from which many women suffer from. MonaLisa Touch is a minimally invasive CO2 laser procedure for the vulvovaginal area. It is not surgery, and your doctor will check whether it is suitable for you at consultation.
Some women experience vaginal dryness, itching, burning or discomfort during intercourse, for example after childbirth or around the menopause. These symptoms are common, but they are not something you simply have to accept, and they should be assessed by a health professional. MonaLisa Touch is a CO2 laser procedure that some women choose to discuss with us. Whether it is suitable for you, and what it may or may not help with, is assessed at consultation. As with any laser procedure, there can be side-effects and some recovery time, which we explain before you decide. The MonaLisa Touch device uses SmartXide CO2 laser technology with the HiScanV2LR scanning system. At consultation we discuss the options available to you, including medical treatments your GP or gynaecologist may recommend, and whether laser treatment is appropriate for you.
The MonaLisa treatment in Leamington Spa is performed at our Eve Clinic by members of our clinical team trained in this procedure and in the use of this CO2 laser. We will discuss realistic expectations with you before any treatment. When you contact us, a member of our team can explain what the MonaLisa treatment involves. This includes possible side effects, recovery time and aftercare. For example, you may be advised to avoid sex for a few days afterwards. Prices are shown on our price list. If you would like to go ahead, you will further need to undergo a specialized consultation during which your medical history and current health condition will be assessed so that all details are taken into consideration and your clinician can advise whether treatment is appropriate for you and explain the possible benefits and risks.
The concept of the MonaLisa laser treatment in Leamington Spa is quite simple: based on the CO2 laser effect, controlled heat is delivered to the vaginal tissue. This is intended to trigger the body’s natural healing response. Individual responses vary, and your doctor will explain what the treatment may and may not do for you. But as with any laser procedure, there are possible side effects. These include temporary discomfort, redness, swelling or discharge. Rarely, there may be more serious effects such as scarring. Your clinician will explain these at your consultation. Many patients describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful, although everyone’s experience is different. A local anaesthetic can be offered if you would like one.
A course of MonaLisa Touch treatment is often around three sessions, roughly a month apart, although this varies and results cannot be guaranteed. At your consultation, your doctor will explain how many sessions may be recommended for you. They will review your progress at follow-up appointments.
If you are experiencing vulvovaginal symptoms, our team can talk you through whether MonaLisa Touch may be suitable, alongside other options, at a confidential consultation. Whichever the situation, by contacting our team at Eve Clinic in Leamington Spa, you can get clear answers to your questions. To find out more, book a confidential consultation or call us.

I attended Eve Clinic today and I was treated so well by Doctor Madhok. She made me feel so relaxed as I was feeling quite nervous. Very gentle and ensured I was comfortable and not having any pain. I would recommend Mona Lisa Touch at Eve Clinic.
