At OLA Aesthetics, we offer discreet, nonsurgical treatments designed to improve the health, hydration and appearance of the external genital area. These treatments target common concerns related to ageing, hormonal shifts and childbirth, such as changes in skin texture, tissue tone, volume loss and discomfort. If you are interested in learning more about treatments for the intimate area, please request a consultation with our team.
A Note from Dr. Aleks
We hold ourselves to the highest standards of care, no matter which area of the body we’re treating. The intimate area is no exception. Changes in this region are normal and natural, but that does not mean you must accept them if they affect your comfort.
In this highly private area, choosing a qualified and compassionate medical professional is essential. Dr Indi and I strive to create a safe and respectful space where you feel comfortable discussing these issues. You can trust that your care will be discreet, medically sound and tailored uniquely to you.
What Are Treatments for Intimate Area Health?
Nonsurgical treatments for the intimate area address the structure and function of vulvar tissues using noninvasive or minimally invasive methods. These treatments typically focus on improving the quality, firmness, and appearance of the skin and soft tissues in the external genital region.
Patients seek intimate area treatments to address concerns like:
- Loss of volume or plumpness
- Skin laxity or looseness
- Changes in texture or hydration
- Loss of hydration
- Discomfort during physical activities or intimate situations
We want to emphasise that these changes are normal and experienced by many people. There is also an enormous degree of natural variation in the appearance of women’s genitalia at any age. Seeking treatment is a personal choice, not a necessity. If you are bothered by a specific concern and would like to learn about the options available, our doctors can offer confidential guidance tailored to your needs.
How and Why Do Intimate Areas Change?
Just like tissues elsewhere on the body, the external genital area undergoes natural changes over time. These changes are influenced by a combination of internal and external factors.
Ageing
Decreased production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid can lead to:
- Thinning of the skin and underlying tissues
- Decreased firmness and elasticity
- Changes in pigmentation and texture
- Reduced natural lubrication
- Loss of volume and fullness
These changes often begin in the 30s and become more noticeable starting in perimenopause, though the timeline varies considerably from person to person.
Hormonal Shifts
Fluctuations or declining levels of oestrogen, particularly during perimenopause and menopause, can accelerate changes in the external genital area, including further thinning of tissues, increased dryness and sensitivity, and reduced blood flow to the area.
Childbirth
Pregnancy and vaginal delivery can stretch and stress the tissues of the external genitalia. Although the body is remarkably resilient, some women notice lasting changes in skin laxity or contour following childbirth.
Lifestyle and Environmental Factors
Cumulative exposure to factors like smoking or UV radiation from tanning beds can accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin fibres, leading to more pronounced signs of ageing in the skin.
Genetics
Everyone has a unique genetic blueprint that influences how their body ages. Some people may experience more noticeable changes in the genital region simply due to inherited factors.
The OLA Experience
Consultation
Your consultation will begin with a detailed discussion about your concerns, goals and medical history. We will assess the treatment area and determine the best course of action for your needs. We believe in taking a holistic approach to care, which includes thorough education, setting realistic expectations and post-treatment support.
Preparation
Your doctor will provide personalised advice to help you prepare for treatment. This may include adjusting certain medications or supplements, avoiding products or practices that could irritate your skin, and limiting alcohol consumption for a short period before your visit. We also recommend wearing comfortable clothing on the day of your appointment.
Treatment
Your doctor will take every measure to ensure your treatment is handled with care and discretion. The steps and duration of the procedure will vary depending on the type of treatment and your individual treatment plan. Most require minimal downtime, and your doctor will discuss any post-treatment considerations before you leave the clinic.
Could a Nonsurgical Intimate Area Treatment Be Right for Me?
An intimate area treatment may be considered if:
- You have noticed visible changes in the skin or soft tissues of the external genital area
- You prefer a nonsurgical approach
- You are in good overall health
- You have realistic expectations about treatment outcomes
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
Some health conditions, medications or other factors may influence your suitability for certain treatments. Active skin infections or lesions in the area may need to be addressed prior to proceeding with any intimate procedure. During your consultation, we'll discuss which modality aligns with your needs and whether now is an appropriate time for treatment.
