| What is Vaginoplasty, Dr Barnouti explains tightening procedure of the vagina and a refreshing procedure to the labia (vagina inner lips). Vaginal Rejuvenation procedures It is widely accepted these days for a woman to elect to have Botox injections to erase wrinkles, or surgery to refine their nose and enlarge their breasts. It is no longer shameful or embarrassing to want, or to have cosmetic surgery to change the body you were born with or the wrinkles that have come with aging. Likewise, more women than ever are concerned with the appearance of their genitals or a lack of sexual gratification. Women are much more aware of their genitals function and the aesthetics of their vagina. There is an obvious, direct connection between a woman's comfort level with her genitals, and her sexual enjoyment. The fact is there are millions of women who would seek to improve the appearance of their genitals or enhance their sexual satisfaction through cosmetic surgery procedures such as labiaplasty or vaginoplasty. Vaginal rejuvenation is cosmetic plastic surgery of both the vagina and the labia to improve their appearance, tighten and tone the pelvic floor muscles. This restorative surgery can be done simultaneously to beautify the vaginal area, enhances vaginal tone, improve musc1e strength, increase voluntary control of the vagina and strengthens the tissue of the perineal body between the vagina and the anus. It is a direct means of enhancing one’s sexual life once again. Vaginal tightening procedure (Vaginoplasty) by Dr Barnouti Vaginoplasty is primarily a reconstructive procedure. It is performed to rejuvenate and tighten a women's vagina by decreasing the diameter of the vaginal walls resulting in increased friction during intercourse. By removing excess lining, repairing the soft tissues and reconstructing the perineal/pelvic floor muscles, this procedure returns the vagina to a "Youthful” state. It also creates greater contraction, strength and tone, which can permit greater sensation during sex for the woman and her partner and making the vagina more appealing aesthetically. Couples also report an overall improvement in the quality of life after vaginal tightening procedure. Vaginal tightening procedure is performed under local anaesthesia and some sedation (twilight sleep) on an outpatient basis in the confidential setting. The patient will go home the same day and can return to work after 3-5days. After surgery, women may experience some mild discomfort and swelling, which usually disappears completely after 1-2 weeks. Sexual activities cannot be resumed for 4-6 weeks to ensure that the vaginal area is completely healed. Satisfaction rate Some women are born with an irregularly shaped or large labia that is embarrassing for them when they wear tight clothing such as a bathing suit or pants as their labia is very visible. Others develop misshapen labia after childbirth because it has been stretched during delivery and often doesn’t return to its normal size. Others may feel unattractive, or wish to enhance their sexual experiences by removing some of the skin that covers the clitoris. The purpose of a labiaplasty is to better define the inner labia. |

| Labioplasty will reduce and reshape the labia minora (outside small lips) to beautify it so that is more pleasant to look at for themselves, their partner or for those who want to wear tight clothing without a constant labial irritation. This procedure produce a more symmetrical clean appearance | |
| Labial surgery is usually done as day case, usually under local aesthetic with or without twilight sedation. During the procedure, a wedge-shaped piece of tissue is removed and re-attaches the labia in a new position so that the inner lips no longer protrude beyond the outer lips. |

| After surgery, there is no need for bandages and it suffices to wash the area thoroughly with a hand-held shower twice a day A burning or unpleasant feeling may be present but in general there is no need for painkillers. Personal hygiene is extremely important for rapid healing. You will be able to go home the same day. Recovery is normally quick. Labioplasty procedure can be performed alone or in combined with Vaginal tightening procedure. Final thought There is some controversy concerning the social acceptance and need for vaginal rejuvenation surgery. Your decision to have the treatment is a highly personal one that not everyone will understand. What is important is how you feel about it. If you've met your personal goals and wishes, then your treatment is a success. |
