Non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation usually has little downtime. Still, knowing what is normal helps you plan and avoid worry. Your doctor’s instructions always take priority over general guidance.

Quick Answer

Most women return to normal daily activities the same day or the next day. Mild warmth, discharge or sensitivity may last a few days. Doctors often advise avoiding intercourse, tampons and baths for a short period. Full results develop over several weeks as tissue renews.
