Every day, more women entrust themselves to plastic surgeons to renew their bodies and achieve a figure that, due to the passage of time or simply pregnancy, has undergone unwanted transformations. Although not often discussed among patients due to privacy concerns or personal decisions, some surgical interventions within plastic surgeries stand out, known as “intimate surgeries,” which increase women’s self-confidence and self-esteem.
Among these procedures is Labiaplasty, generally performed for aesthetic purposes with the goal of restoring the youthful appearance of a woman’s genital lips. However, this is not the topic to be addressed in the Blog article, as we will discuss another intimate surgery that is gaining popularity among women: Vaginoplasty. Vaginoplasty is an intimate surgery for the reconstruction of the female genital area, which undergoes unwanted transformations over the years and after pregnancy.
Specialists, through a narrowing of the vaginal canal, improve the aesthetic appearance of the vagina and, consequently, enhance a woman’s sexual life. Vaginoplasty is usually performed on women experiencing a weakening of pelvic organ support and widening of the vagina due to multiple pregnancies and childbirths. Additionally, the loss of pelvic floor firmness can lead to uterine prolapse (bladder descent and displacement), urinary incontinence, less intense or less frequent sexual relationships, and discomfort when wearing tight clothing or engaging in sports.
This procedure can be performed on women of any age, especially those who have already been mothers and, as a result of pregnancy or childbirth, exhibit signs in their intimate area with which they are not comfortable and therefore consider modifying them. Before the surgery, a consultation with the specialist is the ideal place for the patient to communicate her expectations regarding Vaginoplasty and what she wishes to correct in her genital area.
The doctor will assess the patient’s overall health to ensure that she is indeed a viable candidate for the procedure. The doctor will address all concerns and explain the details of the process.
