Vaginal Rejuvenation (Vaginoplasty / Vaginal Tightening) is sometimes seen as a way to design the perfect vagina for a woman. It is primarily a procedure used to enhance the feelings of sexual gratification and allow the woman to receive and give more pleasure when making love. For many women that have gone through childbirth, sometimes the vaginal muscles may expand during the delivery and can become weaker and looser. For some women, after the healing process is completed, this can be an embarrassment making a woman feel uncomfortable and even leading to sexual dysfunction. The purpose of Vaginal Rejuvenation surgery is to improve the tone and elasticity of the vagina by tightening the vaginal muscles and the supporting tissues. Vaginal Rejuvenation surgery makes the internal vaginal size smaller, resulting in tightening and increased sensation. The surgery is performed inside of the vagina, therefore there is no scarring or visual incisions. The procedure can be performed either under general anesthetic or local anesthetic with sedation, and may require an overnight stay. The operation usually takes about an hour to perform.
All expectations must be realistic. The result will be an immediate decrease in the diameter of the vagina with an increase in the tightness of the muscles. This may restore the vagina and supporting structures to a pre-pregnancy state. The vaginal area will be sore and possibly a little swollen after surgery. Resuming normal activities after surgery may occur within a few days and normal sexual activity within a month or so. For women who have undergone multiple childbirths, the vaginal muscles tend to experience enlargement due to a stressful physical expansion during the delivery. Results are often loose, weak, vaginal muscles. Even after Kegel exercises, the condition of the vaginal muscles may not improve. Although the experience of childbirth may be the most rewarding of their lives, sometimes the after effects for both their sexual partner and themselves is not as satisfying as it once was. Vaginoplasty, sometimes is referred to as rejuvenation of the vagina, a procedure that can usually correct the problem of stretched vaginal muscles resulting from childbirth(s), and is a direct means of enhancing one's sexual life once again. Procedure: The procedure typically tones vaginal muscle, resulting in greater contraction strength and control, thereby permitting greater sensation during sexual experiences. Generally, anyone in average physical condition or good health can be a candidate for vaginoplasty surgery. Vaginoplasty is a standard gynecologic surgical procedure. It tightens vaginal muscles and surrounding soft tissues, by reducing excess vaginal mucosa (vaginal lining). The result is an immediate decrease in the size of vaginal muscles, resulting in more friction during sexual experiences. After Surgery: After surgery, the patient is usually able to walk comfortably the next day, return to work the next week, and may return to sexual activities within 4-6 weeks. Risks: Possibility of infection, bleeding, and scarring. You may also liek to know more about tubal reversal go to tubal ligation reversal page. |
