A quite common condition usually associated with vaginal child birth as well as with natural ageing is the loss of elasticity and tone, also known as Descensus Vaginae or Vaginal Relaxation Syndrome (VRS).
Descensus of the vagina occurs when, due to factors like vaginal births, weakness of the connective tissue, heavy physical work, ageing processes and hormone deficiencies, the pelvic floor tissue slackens, leading to a bulging of the vaginal walls. As a consequence, the vaginal walls collapse onto each other.
Pregnancies and births contribute to a worsening of VRS condition, as does the onset of menopause, which causes a decline in hormone levels and vaginal atrophy.

The rationale for applying laser treatment for mild descensus of the vagina, which is often experienced as an excessively wide vagina and can lead to a decrease in sexual pleasure for a couple, is that it tightens the connective tissue and improves blood circulation in the vaginal epithelium.
This action continues its beneficial effect even after the treatment is finished and, for this reason, many women report further improvements during the first month post-treatment.
