By Dr. Joseph Berenholz
Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation (LVR) is a one-hour outpatient surgical procedure developed to enhance sexual gratification by improving vaginal muscle tone, strength, and control. LVR is also used to decrease the internal and external vaginal diameters while strengthening the perineum, the body part outside the vagina and above the anus. Sexual gratification for women is directly related to the amount of frictional forces generated, according to Masters and Johnson. We can improve your sexual gratification through laser
vaginal cosmetic surgery.
It’s not easy to lose optimal function in the vaginal and vulvar structures. Thanks to advanced technology, you don’t have to. Our suite of vaginal cosmetic surgery options can help women who are self-conscious about their vaginal and vulvar issues.
Utilizing advanced laser surgery, DLV cosmetically improves the vulvar structures, such as the labia minora, labia majora, mons pubis, perineum, introitus, and hymen. LVR Institute of Michigan specializes in this type of surgery and can provide you with a tailored solution to your needs. Here are some of the most popular DLV procedures:
-
Laser Reduction Labiaplasty
- Labiaplasty is used to sculpt the elongated or unequal labial minora (small inner lips) according to your preferences. The majority of women who request this procedure desire smaller inner lips that do not project beyond the large outer lips. This procedure can also be used to treat conditions related to aging, childbirth trauma, or injury..
-
Laser Reduction Labiaplasty with Reduction of Excess Prepuce
- This type of labia reduction surgery is used to treat and reduce the excess skin along the sides of the clitoris. The final result allows the skin to drape neatly over the clitoris, offering the desired aesthetic enhancement. This treatment is often used to follow up a labioplasty in order to create a unified aesthetic result.
Laser Perineoplasty
- This procedure is designed to improve the relaxed or aging perineum. It can also be used to improve the sagging labia majora (large outer lips) and labia minora. The final result is a youthful and aesthetically appealing vulva.
Augmentation Labioplasty
- This surgery is used to aesthetically enhance the labia majora by removing the patient’s fat via liposculpturing and transplanting it into the labia majora. It offers a more youthful appearance.
Vulvar Lipoplasty
- This type of surgery removes unwanted fat from the mons pubis and upper parts of the labia majora. Through further liposculpturing, we can remove the unwanted fatty bulges in this area and create a more aesthetically pleasing contour.
Hymenoplasty
- This procedure is used to reconstruct the hymen as if nothing occurred. LVR Institute of Michigan is sensitive to the needs of women from all cultures who request this procedure for cultural, social, or religious reasons.
Combination of DLV with LVR
- DLV and LVR surgeries can be performed at the same time for ultimate rejuvenation and aesthetic enhancement. These surgeries can also be performed together with standard cosmetic procedures, including liposculpturing, breast implants, breast reduction, tummy tuck, nose surgery, and eyelid surgery.
Thirty million American women suffer from symptoms of vaginal relaxation and stress urinary incontinence. Many women have difficulty controlling their urine in certain situations or notice changes in their bowel habits. These two symptoms may be related to a common set of problems that may occur as a result of childbirth, aging or a combination of both. Grouped together these problems are referred to as pelvic relaxation.

Gynecologic Surgery for Treatment of Medical Conditions
As a board-certified obstetrician/gynecologist with over 20 years of experience in his field, Dr. Joseph Berenholz has successfully treated thousands of women with medical conditions ranging from abnormally
heavy menstruation to issues arising from age and/or childbirth.
Nearly 34 million women around the world are affected by some kind of pelvic organ prolapse. This happens when the pelvic muscles and ligaments are weakened or damaged by aging, childbirth, or other causes, allowing adjacent structures to protrude into the vaginal wall. There are several types of prolapse, including:
- Bladder prolapse, also called cystocele
- Rectal prolapse, also called rectocele
- Vaginal prolapse (the anterior wall or top of the vagina dropping into the vaginal canal)
Procedures used to treat prolapse include surgery or the provision of support via a pessary or TOT sling.
Abnormally heavy, painful, or prolonged periods are sometimes caused by problems in the lining of the uterus, known as the endometrium. We can ablate the endometrium using one of several procedures. After this process a woman may no longer become pregnant. However, the removal of the uterus is not necessary.
Essure is a permanent sterilization technique through which micro-inserts are placed within the fallopian tubes to induce tissue growth/scarring; the procedure is designed to block the fallopian tubes over a period of nearly three months. The procedure does not require incisions or a general anesthetic.
