Vulvovaginal Concerns

Vulval and vaginal symptoms such as itching, irritation, pain, discharge, and discomfort during sex are common concerns. However, many women feel vulnerable discussing these issues and have often felt inadequately supported in the past. Dr. Emily Ware has undergone specialised training and ongoing professional development in the detection, assessment, and management of vulvovaginal conditions. By combining her expertise in women’s health, dermatology, and pelvic pain, Dr. Ware is proud to offer Tasmania’s first Vulvovaginal Clinic at O’Skin, providing compassionate and expert care in a supportive environment.

Benefits

Faster & more effective results

The ultra-short picosecond pulses of the PicoWay laser break down ink into tiny particles, allowing your body to clear them faster than traditional lasers. This means fewer treatments are needed to achieve your desired results.

Safer for all skin types & tattoo colours

Unlike older laser systems, PicoWay is safer for all skin tones and effectively targets difficult colours like blues, greens, and reds.

Minimal discomfort & downtime

With its photoacoustic effect, PicoWay reduces heat buildup, minimising discomfort and lowering the risk of scarring or skin damage.

How it Works

Initial Consultation

Your 40–60 minute initial consultation with Dr. Emily Ware is designed to thoroughly assess your symptoms and review your medical, surgical, and gynecological history to identify any associated risks. Dr. Ware adopts a goal-directed approach to care, taking the time to understand your priorities and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

During the consultation, Dr. Ware will conduct a comprehensive, trauma-informed examination. This may include cervical screening, swabs, vaginal pH testing, and wet mount microscopy — a bedside diagnostic test requiring specialized training to evaluate the vaginal microbiome and overall vaginal health. If additional tests are necessary, Dr. Ware will take the time to educate you and discuss these options in detail.

Certain vulval conditions may require ongoing monitoring due to their potential to increase the risk of vulval cancer. To detect subtle changes, Dr. Ware may recommend photographic surveillance, which will be discussed with you in-depth to ensure informed consent during your appointment.
