More details on intimate surgery in women

Intimate surgery for women can address a range of needs such as the reduction of the labia minora with nymphoplasty, the plumping of the labia majora with lipostructure and the tightening of the vagina to correct distension caused by childbirth with vaginoplasty.

This intimate surgery in women is a sexual surgery that can be performed for aesthetic but also restorative reasons. Requests that are increasingly frequent among young women are made for labiaplasty or labia reduction and in some areas, hymenoplasty is also performed. For mature women who have had one or more pregnancies and in order to regain better sensations, the choice is more oriented towards vaginoplasty. 

Hymenoplasty: Intimate surgery to reconstruct a deflowered hymen

Hymenoplasty is an intimate surgery that reconstructs a deflowered hymen. It is a procedure that is highly sought after by young Muslim patients who want to bleed when the marriage is consummated with their husband despite having had sexual intercourse beforehand. It is also useful for those who have perforated the hymen without sexual intercourse and who want to avoid any confusion for their future husband. For this type of intervention, discretion is always required.

Lipofilling: Intimate Surgery for Women

In some cases, the labia majora lack sufficient volume to cover the labia minora. Many patients opt for lipofilling of the labia majora along with love handles or abdominal liposuction. Generally, the patient chooses to fill the face as well as the intimate areas with the extracted fat.

It should be noted that the final volume of this intimate surgery will be obtained after 3 months because part of the fat will be resorbed. It is thus possible to increase the volume of the labia majora by injecting hyaluronic acid but the result is temporary and it will disappear completely after 12 months.

Labiaplasty: Intimate surgery to reduce the labia minora

Many women have labia minora that protrude from their underwear and choose to undergo labiaplasty or labia reduction, especially with total hair removal of the intimate areas.

When wearing tight clothing, the discomfort can be aesthetic but also functional when practicing certain sports such as cycling or horse riding or even during sexual intercourse.

Labiaplasty is an intimate surgery that involves reducing the size of the labia minora by removing the excess part.

Vaginoplasty: Intimate surgery to rejuvenate the vagina

With age, the vaginal muscles in women relax, especially after multiple births, resulting in a loss of tone in this intimate area. To regain this intimate area, women can undergo vaginoplasty. Vaginoplasty is an intimate surgery that reduces the diameter of the vagina and tightens the perineal muscles. After this intimate surgery, the woman undergoing surgery regains sensations lost after multiple pregnancies.

Why does a woman need vaginal surgery?

Women who have a uro-vaginal area that has been altered or injured due to various medical reasons may be eligible for vaginoplasty. They may be:
