Confidential Intimate Wellness Care
If you’ve been sitting on this page for a while trying to decide whether to keep reading — we want you to know something first:
You’re not alone. What you’re experiencing is common. It’s treatable. And nothing about this conversation — or any conversation you have with our team — will ever involve judgment.
Vaginal dryness. Laxity. The leaking when you sneeze or laugh or jump. The changes to intimacy that you haven’t told anyone about. These aren’t things you have to accept. They’re conditions — caused by hormonal shifts, childbirth, aging, or all three — and they respond to treatment the same way any other medical condition does.
At Illume Aesthetics — fifteen minutes from Medford — we use a combination approach that no other practice in the Rogue Valley offers: the CO2RE Intima laser for internal tissue renewal plus PRP vaginal injection for enhanced regeneration and sensitivity. Two treatments. Two different mechanisms. One comprehensive result.
What Changes — And Why It’s Not Your Fault
Most women don’t talk about this. So when it starts happening to you, it feels like something uniquely wrong — when in reality, it’s one of the most common experiences in women’s health.
Estrogen decline is the primary driver. During perimenopause, menopause, and after childbirth, estrogen levels drop. Estrogen maintains the thickness, elasticity, moisture, and pH balance of vaginal tissue. When it declines, everything changes at once:
- Dryness — tissue loses its natural moisture, leading to discomfort and pain during intimacy
- Laxity — tissue loses structural support, affecting both comfort and confidence
- Stress incontinence — weakened pelvic tissue leads to leaking during laughing, coughing, sneezing, or exercise
- Sensitivity changes — decreased blood flow and tissue thinning reduce sensation
- Recurring irritation — pH changes create an environment prone to discomfort
These aren’t separate problems. They’re different expressions of the same underlying change. Our treatment approach addresses them together.

Our Approach — Laser + PRP Combined
This is what makes Illume’s approach different from the other options in the Medford area. We combine two treatments that work through different mechanisms on different aspects of the same problem.
CO2RE Intima Laser
The CO2RE Intima delivers fractional CO2 energy to vaginal tissue — the same laser platform we use for facial skin resurfacing, applied internally. The laser triggers new collagen production, tissue remodeling, and increased blood flow. Tissue thickens, hydrates, and tightens as new collagen forms.
Addresses: Dryness, atrophy, laxity, mild stress incontinence, overall tissue health.
The treatment: In-office. No anesthesia typically needed. Most patients describe mild warmth and pressure. 15 to 20 minutes. An external component can be added for vulvar tissue.
PRP Vaginal Injection
Your own concentrated growth factors — drawn from your arm, processed on-site — injected into specific areas of vaginal tissue and the clitoral region. PRP stimulates new blood vessel formation and nerve regeneration.
Addresses: Sensitivity, arousal, lubrication, orgasmic response.
Important note: Illume offers PRP vaginal injection — our own clinical protocol. We do not offer the trademarked “O-Shot.” The underlying science is the same. The difference is our protocol, not a licensed franchise.
Why Both Matters
Other providers in the region offer laser alone. The laser rebuilds the physical structure — collagen, thickness, elasticity. PRP regenerates at the cellular level — blood flow, nerve response, sensation. Together, they produce more comprehensive results than either alone. Patients who choose the combination report improvement in both the physical symptoms and the experiential ones.
What to Expect
The consultation. Private. One-on-one with your provider. No one else in the room. You’ll discuss what you’re experiencing, how long it’s been going on, and what you’re hoping to improve. Many patients tell us this is the first time they’ve discussed these concerns with anyone — and every single one says it was easier than they expected.
Treatment sessions. Most patients benefit from three CO2RE Intima sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, with PRP added to one or more sessions. Your provider designs the protocol around your specific concerns.
Recovery. Minimal. Most patients resume normal activities the same day. Abstain from intercourse for a few days as directed. No significant downtime.
Results. Moisture and comfort improvements within the first few weeks. Tissue tightening develops over two to three months as collagen remodels. Sensitivity improvements from PRP may take four to eight weeks. Results last twelve to eighteen months with annual maintenance.
Pairs with hormone replacement therapy: For patients whose symptoms stem from menopausal estrogen decline, combining vaginal rejuvenation (local tissue treatment) with BioTE hormone pellets (systemic hormone restoration) produces the most comprehensive results. Same practice. Coordinated plan.
Why Medford Patients Choose Illume
The only laser + PRP combination in the region. Other providers offer laser monotherapy — either MonaLisa Touch or similar single-modality approaches. Illume is the only practice in the Rogue Valley combining CO2RE Intima with PRP for comprehensive results that address both structural restoration and sensory function.
CO2RE Intima technology. Our Candela CO2RE platform offers customizable fractional depth control — your provider adjusts the laser precisely for your tissue, rather than the fixed-depth approach of competing technologies. More precise treatment means better outcomes with less discomfort.
A space that understands this conversation. This isn’t a urology office. It isn’t a cold clinical exam room. Illume is a medical spa designed for exactly these conversations — private, warm, and staffed by a team that discusses intimate wellness every day. Your concerns aren’t unusual to us. They’re the reason this service exists.
Comprehensive women’s wellness. Vaginal rejuvenation alongside HRT, semaglutide, and the full Illume treatment menu. Your intimate wellness provider is the same team managing your hormones, your skin, and your overall confidence. One relationship. One record. Nothing falls through the cracks.
Hundreds of five-star reviews. The trust Medford patients place in Illume for injectables and laser treatments extends to our intimate wellness services.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Illume from Medford?
About 15 minutes via I-5 South. Exit 14, one mile to Siskiyou Blvd. Free parking. Private entrance.
Does vaginal rejuvenation hurt?
CO2RE Intima: most patients describe mild warmth and pressure — not pain. No anesthesia typically needed. PRP injection: local numbing applied. Patients describe pressure but not pain. The combined session is under 45 minutes.
How many sessions do I need?
Most patients benefit from three CO2RE Intima sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, with PRP added to one or more sessions. Results develop progressively and last twelve to eighteen months. Annual maintenance sustains benefits.
Can this help with stress incontinence?
Yes. CO2RE Intima stimulates collagen production in vaginal and pelvic tissue, improving tissue integrity and support. Many patients with mild stress incontinence — leaking during laughing, coughing, sneezing, or exercise — experience meaningful improvement over the treatment series.
Is this the same as the O-Shot?
The O-Shot is a trademarked branded protocol. Illume offers PRP vaginal injection using our own clinical protocol — not the branded franchise. The underlying science (PRP injection for intimate wellness) is the same. We combine PRP with CO2RE Intima for a more comprehensive approach than PRP alone.
Will anyone know I had this treatment?
Every conversation and treatment at Illume is completely confidential. There are no visible signs of treatment. No downtime that requires explanation. This stays between you and your provider.
The Hardest Part Is Making the Call. Everything After That Is Easier Than You Think.
You’ve been living with the dryness, the leaking, the changes to intimacy — maybe for months, maybe for years. You assumed you had to. You don’t.
What you’re experiencing is common, it’s treatable, and the conversation is private. Our team discusses intimate wellness every single day. You will not surprise us. You will not embarrass us. And you will not be judged.
