The mechanism of the laser is such that it destroys dark cells and also stimulates the formation of new skin. After the laser, skin lotions are usually prescribed so that the person does not feel pain. The laser may be a little painful, but it will not be very painful or annoying. Using ice compress and skin lotions to reduce laser irritation can be effective. Laser vaginal lighting takes a short time, about fifteen to twenty minutes. The required number of sessions is three sessions and each session is one to two months apart. Of course, one should not expect a miracle from a laser for high-grade whitening because the laser cannot change skin pigments because skin pigments are related to human genetics. What the laser does is removing the external factors that have caused the vagina to darken.
