Vaginal’s cosmetic surgeries
Understanding Vaginal Cosmetic Surgeries
Some women opt for vaginal cosmetic procedures to alter the appearance or feel of their vulvovaginal region. Reasons may be personal preference or following changes after childbirth and aging.
Popular procedures focus on vaginal lips (labiaplasty), vaginal opening (perineoplasty), or reducing laxity (vaginoplasty).
1. Labiaplasty
Involves surgical reduction of the inner or outer vaginal lips. Done when natural asymmetry, large labia minora, or elongation affects comfort or causes physical irritation.
2. Perineoplasty
Repairs a widened or loose vaginal opening typically post childbirth. Excess skin is removed and muscles are tightened. This addresses sensation loss from a slackened opening and some cases of minor urine leakage.
3. Vaginoplasty
Tightens vaginal wall muscles using specialized surgical techniques. Performed after childbirth or menopause when natural aging reduces elasticity affecting sexual function and self-confidence.
Risks
Common complications like pain, bleeding, scarring, sensation loss, and infection are present as with any surgery. Cosmetic vaginal procedures also face unique risks like discomfort from excessive tightening.
Thorough consultation helps set realistic expectations on risks and aesthetic results. Many consider counseling to address self-esteem issues prior to surgery. Carefully weighing improvement hopes against permanent alteration of natural anatomy is advised.
