Device comprises a laser energy source which conveys laser energy through an optical fiber handpiece. A cylindrical or penis shaped device or applicator for insertion into the vagina, specially designed for safe and accurate irradiation of determined parts of vaginal mucosa is presented. Applicator has an inner hollow path through which optical fiber can be inserted to irradiate inner vaginal tissue. Irradiated mucous tissue contracts and vaginal radius is reduced. Consequently, sensitivity is substantially improved. In an embodiment, a diode laser source is used emitting at 1470 nm. In another embodiment, vagina's outer dimensions are accurately measured and surgery is performed to achieve dimensions according to certain aesthetic and functional criteria. Present method and device causes minimum pain and risk of side effects. Procedure is ambulatory and can be carried out in a physician's office.
