Women’s Hea lth “Patients can feel an improvement after the first treatment but the full benefits are generally achieved after three to four treatments” Dr Hassan acknowledges the new treatment is not going to be a miracle cure for everyone, but for some, she says, it will create fast, lasting improvements while avoiding many of the hassles associated with existing treatment options. “The procedure works by stimulating the body’s own regenerative processes which create more hydrated and healthy cells and improves the circulation and nutrient supply to the area,” Dr Hassan said. “The treatment is painless and suitable for almost all women, who can return to their normal activities immediately with no downtime.” Dr Hassan is an Australian Board Certified Obstetrician/ Gynaecologist who provides a compassionate, understanding, and safe environment for Gold Coast woman to take charge of their health. She has over a decade of experience in women’s health and is excited by the treatment’s potential. “Menopause symptoms can be confronting and debilitating and can place a great deal of stress on relationships,” Dr Hassan said. “It’s extremely important that we open up the conversation and provide a comfortable, safe and nurturing environment for women to seek help and obtain safe results that improve their health, happiness and quality of life.” Presently, the most common treatment for vaginal atrophy requires an ongoing application of hormone replacement creams. Some women are not able to use these creams, some become uncomfortable with the process, and therefore cease the treatment. The treatment takes just five to ten minutes and while changes are long lasting, treatment can be repeated as required, as the natural ageing process continues. “Patients can feel an improvement after the first treatment but the full benefits are generally achieved after three to four treatments. We develop individual treatment plans tailored to individual symptoms to provide the highest level of care and the very best outcomes for patients,” Dr Hassan said. pm pindaramagazine.com.au Pindara Magazine 37
