Vaginoplasty/Vaginal Repair - Hymenoplasty

After multiple sexual activities/ child birth the perineal muscles tend to become lax and sag resulting in loose and weak muscles. Even after exercise (Kegal), the condition of the vaginal muscles may not improve.
Many women find that while 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 referred to as rejuvenation of the vagina, is 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. The procedure typically tones vaginal muscle, resulting in greater contraction strength and control, thereby permitting greater sensation during sexual experiences.
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, the patient is usually able to walk comfortably within a few days and may return to sexual activities within 4-6 weeks.

HYMENOPLASTY/VIRGINITY RESTOTATION SURGERY

Hymenoplasty or hymen reconstruction surgery is the surgical restoration of the hymen. The term comes from the Greek words hymen meaning membrane, and raphe meaning suture. It is also known as Hymenorrhaphy. The normal aim is to cause bleeding during post-nuptial intercourse, which in some cultures is considered proof of virginity.

Varieties of the operation

The term may cover at least four significantly different types of procedure:
  • Suturing of a tear in the hymen such as might be caused by sexual assault, soon after the assault, to facilitate healing.
  • A purely cosmetic procedure in which a membrane without blood supply is created, sometimes including a gelatine capsule of an artificial bloodlike substance. This operation is intended to be performed within a few days before an intended marriage.
  • Use of a flap of the vaginal lining, complete with its blood supply, to create a new hymen. Patients are advised to refrain from immediate penetrative sex. The term hymen reconstruction has also been used to describe some varieties of infibulation, requiring further surgery before penetration is possible.
