While no woman wants to face surgery, today the vast majority of complex gynecologic conditions - from endometriosis to uterine fibroids, heavy periods to cancer - can now be treated effectively without a big incision. da Vinci Surgery only requires a few tiny incisions, so patients can get back to life faster - within days rather than the usual weeks required with traditional surgery. For most women, da Vinci Surgery offers numerous potential benefits over traditional open surgery, including:
Surpassing the limits of conventional laparoscopic surgery, da Vinci is revolutionizing gynecologic surgery for women. No wonder more and more women are choosing da Vinci Surgery for their hysterectomy.
MonaLisa Touch® is a functional vaginal rejuvenation treatment based on a special fractional CO2 laser, specifically created for the vaginal mucosa.
MonaLisa Touch® prevents and resolves estrogen drops in the vaginal tissue (typically occurring during menopause or after childbirth) by re-activating the production of new collagen and reestablishing the conditions that the vaginal mucosa once had.
MonaLisa Touch® is now the most effective non-surgical and non-pharmacological solution for preventing and treating vaginal atrophy and its after-effects, which many women suffer from during menopause and after childbirth.
NovaSure is an endometrial ablation procedure that provides an effective and minimally invasive alternative to hysterectomy. NovaSure delivers precisely measured electrical energy via a slender, handheld wand to remove the endometrial lining and control menorrhagia (excessive menstrual bleeding). The procedure requires no incisions and generally takes about 5 minutes.
Colposcopy is a way of looking at the cervix through a special magnifying device equipped with a light source. The colposcope can enlarge the normal view by 2-60 times. This allows the doctor to find problems that cannot be seen by the eye alone.
Hysteroscopy is a way to look inside the uterus using a thin, telescope-like device that is inserted into the uterus through the vagina and cervix. This may allow the doctor to diagnose and treat a uterine problem.
Laparoscopy is a way to look directly into the abdomen and at the reproductive organs. A laparoscope is a small telescope that is inserted into the abdomen through a tiny incision. It can be used if you have problems with infertility, and to check for ectopic pregnancy, the causes of pelvic pain, and masses.
Laporoscopic supracervical hysterectomy is a minimally invasive procedure designed to reduce pain. It can be done on an outpatient basis and leaves only small scars. With this procedure, the uterus is removed but the cervix is left in place. The ovaries and fallopian tubes may or may not be removed.
This new vaccine protects against the four types of HPV that cause the most cases of cervical cancer and genital warts. The vaccine is recommended for girls aged 11-12 years. However, it can be given to girls as young as 9 and young women aged 13-26 who have either not yet received the vaccine or have not completed all doses. The vaccine has been well-studied and appears to be safe and effective.
