Laser Vulvar Resurfacing in Korea: What You Need to Know

Laser vulvar resurfacing is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses fractional or ablative laser technology to rejuvenate the external vulvar skin. It is designed to treat pigmentation, rough texture, skin laxity, and visible aging around the labia majora and surrounding areas. In Korea, this treatment is performed with precision and care by expert gyne-aesthetic practitioners using the latest in laser dermatology—providing visible improvements in both appearance and comfort.


What Laser Vulvar Resurfacing Treats

  • Rough or uneven vulvar skin texture
  • Fine lines or skin thinning from aging or hormonal changes
  • Hyperpigmentation from friction, shaving, or hormonal shifts
  • Loose or crepey skin in the labia majora area
  • Aesthetic concerns regarding skin tone and firmness


Types of Laser Vulvar Resurfacing Treatments in Korea

1. Fractional CO₂ Laser (e.g., SmartXide, MonaLisa Touch)

  • Delivers precise, controlled thermal energy to stimulate collagen and renew surface skin
  • Improves elasticity, tone, and pigmentation while tightening skin texture
  • Minimal downtime with visible improvements after 1–3 sessions

2. Er:YAG Laser (e.g., Fotona)

  • Gentler than CO₂ lasers, suitable for patients with sensitive skin
  • Enhances hydration, reduces superficial pigmentation, and smooths the vulvar surface
  • Often used for maintenance or lighter resurfacing needs

3. Combined Laser + PRP Therapy

  • PRP (platelet-rich plasma) applied immediately after laser to accelerate healing
  • Boosts skin regeneration, elasticity, and overall tissue health
  • Particularly effective for mature or postmenopausal patients
