Gyn-Aesthetic: the ‘new normal’ after COVID-19

Abstract

In the post-COVID-19 era, it will be important to better understand the host response to severe acute respiratory syndrome related to coronaviurus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and the pathology of disease in genital tissue. A better understanding of how SARS-CoV-2 causes disease and how the host responds can help direct new therapeutic targets. With the arrival of the "new normal", women who want to start or who are already undergoing treatment require cosmetic, esthetic and/or functional gynecological procedures that have been safely and ethically modified. Given that there is a possibility of the pandemic re-emerging and that we do not know how the use of different techniques can affect the virus environment, we must take the lessons learned seriously in these unprecedented times, since the virus will not completely disappear from our society once the first wave of the pandemic ends.
