Genital Cosmetic Surgery
Overview
Keeping up with the ever-changing society and its demands genital cosmetic surgery is becoming more and more popular as it helps in regaining individual self-confidence.
Rejuvenation of the female genital area improves the look as well as the function. Childbirth and aging affect the genital area in many ways. More and more women are seeking cosmetic surgery to enhance genital aesthetics and sexual function.
It includes procedures like:
- Cosmetic Vaginoplasty
- Hymenoplasty
- Labiaplasty
Cosmetic Vaginoplasty
Females suffer from lax vagina following childbirth due to over-stretching of tissues and loss of muscle tone, which causes tampons to fall and decreases sexual satisfaction. Vaginoplasty is mainly done for the rejuvenation of the lax vagina to make it tight and youthful. This involves tightening of the next layer of the vagina. A mild laxity can be corrected by radiofrequency or laser, but severe laxity has to be addressed surgically in which the lax muscles are tightened and extra mucosa excised and sutured by absorbable sutures.
Type of anesthesia – It is preferably done under general anesthesia.
After your surgery
The downtime may be 1-2 weeks patient may feel mild deep aches during healing. Intercourse is to be avoided for 6-8 weeks.
Labiaplasty
It is a procedure done to reshape the inner lips ( labia minora) of the vulva. It is usually done in females who have large or asymmetrical inner lips causing functional problems like rubbing while walking or biking, pain from twisting, rashes, itching, and poor hygiene. It is also sought by females who desire a more youthful and attractive look of the same. The aim is to reduce the size of the inner lip so that it does not hang below the outer lip of the labia.
Type of anesthesia – This procedure can be done under local anesthesia or with mild sedation.

Sutures used are dissolvable, and the patient is allowed to go home post-procedure. The patient can resume work in a week according to her comfort level.
