VAGINOPLASTY MIAMI

Why vaginoplasty?

Research shows that the most common reason for patients choosing to undergo this procedure is to improve physical comfort due to swelling in the labia minora tissues that cause them to hang below the average, which makes physical activities very uncomfortable. Other women may choose this procedure because of irritation since the tissue of the labia minora becomes twisted during intercourse making the whole experience a bit painful. There are those women who feel self-conscious about the appearance of their labia minora and choose vaginoplasty to improve the area.

The first step is to administer anesthesia, whether general or conscious sedation. The surgeon will proceed to perform cosmetic vaginal surgery where the back of the vagina is tightened to reduce diameter. The excess lining of the vagina may also be trimmed, the perineum tightened and supporting tissues strengthened for a complete rejuvenation. Incisions are closed with absorbable stitches, which can dissolve in the body with time.

• Swelling can be worse with prolonged sitting or standing. Applying ice can alleviate the swelling.
• Avoid sexual intercourse for three months following surgery unless your surgeon tells you otherwise
• Wash your hands and shower or wash daily always wiping from to back to avoid contamination from bacteria from the anal region.
