FemTouch™ by Lumenis® is a minimally invasive, non-surgical, non-hormonal laser treatment that restores vaginal health and comfort — helping you feel like yourself again, without downtime or discomfort.
Approach
Dr. Zelken's Philosophy
Feminine health is central to overall wellbeing, yet it's rarely discussed openly. At the Zelken Institute for Aesthetic Medicine in Newport Beach, Dr. Jonathan Zelken and his team approach feminine rejuvenation with the same discretion, precision, and care that define every treatment we offer.
The goal is never to over-treat, but to restore comfort and confidence gently — using proven, non-hormonal technology that works with your body rather than against it. For many women, changes to vaginal health after childbirth or menopause can feel isolating. They shouldn't be, and they don't have to be permanent.
As a board-certified plastic surgeon and a scientist at heart, Dr. Zelken believes in honest conversation, conservative recommendations, and treatments backed by evidence. FemTouch™ offers a comfortable, in-office option with no surgery, no hormones, and no meaningful downtime — so you can feel like yourself again.
The Treatment
What is Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation?
As women age — particularly through menopause — declining estrogen levels bring changes to vaginal tissue that can affect comfort and quality of life. FemTouch™ is an innovative CO₂ laser treatment applied gently along the vaginal walls, delivering controlled, precise energy to the vaginal lining to improve overall vaginal health.
Developed by Lumenis® — a leader in aesthetic laser technology — in collaboration with leading gynecologists, FemTouch™ works by stimulating the body's own collagen production and encouraging the growth of new, healthy tissue. The result is a fast, efficient, non-hormonal treatment for common vaginal health concerns.
Benefits of FemTouch™

Improves natural lubrication and comfort during intercourse.
Can reduce stress urinary incontinence and recurrent UTIs.
Non-hormonal — a safe option for breast cancer patients.
Stimulates collagen and healthy new vaginal tissue.
Quick, comfortable, in-office treatment with no downtime.
Is It Right For You
Who is a Good Candidate?
FemTouch™ can help women of nearly any age, from their twenties through their seventies and beyond. If you experience vaginal dryness, burning, irritation, a lack of lubrication, painful intercourse, stress incontinence, or recurrent UTIs, you may be an excellent candidate.
These changes often accompany menopause, but they can also follow childbirth or appear in the pre-menopausal years. Because FemTouch™ is entirely non-hormonal, it's also a thoughtful option for breast cancer patients who cannot take estrogen. The best way to know if it's right for you is a private, judgment-free consultation.
What to Expect
The FemTouch™ Procedure
During your FemTouch™ session, a sterilized applicator is gently inserted and moved along the vaginal walls, delivering the laser in a 360° pattern so the entire area is treated evenly. The treatment is painless, requires no numbing or anesthesia, and takes only a few minutes. Most patients feel only mild warmth and gentle vibration.

The Outcome
Results & Longevity
Unlike temporary fixes, FemTouch™ prompts a genuine renewal of vaginal tissue. Because it stimulates your own collagen and the formation of new blood vessels, improvement continues to build over three to six months — with many patients noticing relief after the very first session.
For lasting comfort, most women complete a short series of treatments and return periodically for maintenance. The outcome is a natural restoration of comfort, confidence, and quality of life — achieved gently, without surgery or hormones.
