Labiaplasty & Vaginoplasty
IS VAGINAL REJUVENATION FOR YOU?
At Body Up Medical Spa, surgery for the labia and vagina is helpful for women who feel worried about the size and shape of their vaginal lips or the tightness of their vaginal muscles. Abnormal vaginal lips may cause pain, discomfort, itching, or irritation when engaging in activities, like sex and exercise. Additionally, a labiaplasty may also help if you can't wear certain outfits, like leggings, bathing suits, or yoga pants, because of the appearance of your labia. If you'd like to improve sensation during sex or you suffer from urinary incontinence, vaginoplasty tightens the muscles so you can live more comfortably. While labiaplasty or vaginoplasty shouldn't affect your ability to get pregnant, Our Providers recommends waiting until you are done childbearing to avoid undoing your results.
SURGICAL TECHNIQUE
Using local anesthesia, we can perform labiaplasty and vaginoplasty in our operating rooms. If the procedure is more complex, you may require general anesthesia. If so, you will need a responsible friend or family member to take you home. During your labiaplasty, our doctors will select from two types of incision techniques. They will discuss both of these incision techniques in detail. The trim technique excises the extra tissue and tightens the remaining skin. The wedge technique cuts away a pie-shaped piece of tissue, removes excess folds from the clitoral hood, and tightens the skin and muscles. If you plan on undergoing both a labiaplasty and vaginoplasty, we will use the wedge techniques so we can tighten the tissue within the vagina.
WHAT TO EXPECT
You will need around 1 – 2 weeks to heal from labiaplasty and vaginoplasty. During this time, you may experience some swelling, but we will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you heal properly and remain comfortable. To reduce discomfort and swelling, We recommends applying a cold compress or ice pack as needed. After your surgery, you cannot engage in sexual activities or use tampons for at least 4 – 6 weeks. Patients usually notice significant improvements after six weeks with final results occurring about six months after surgery. Generally, the results of your vaginal rejuvenation surgery last for a long time, but weight fluctuations, natural aging, and childbirth may impact longevity.
