Relaxation may occur in the vaginal muscles for various reasons. The vagina may lose its elasticity and tightness due to frequent sexual intercourse, normal birth, gynecological interventions, advanced age, abortion, excessive weight loss or genetic reasons. Even if it does not cause any visual distress, the enlarged vagina causes dissatisfaction and loss of feeling in sexual life.
Although vaginal enlargement is usually seen in women who have given birth to a large number of normal births or a large baby, it can also occur due to genetic reasons in women who have not given birth before. This problem, in addition to the problem of inability to orgasm, causes problems such as noise during sitting and standing up or during sexual intercourse, incontinence and prolapse in the uterus at later ages.
Who Can Perform Vaginoplasty?
Vaginal tightening surgery is of great importance to women in restoring their self-confidence and increasing sexual pleasure. However, as with many procedures, vaginal tightening surgery is also effective in people who meet certain criteria. It is possible to say that people with the following characteristics are ideal for this procedure:
- Genital enlargement and relaxation due to more than one normal birth,
- Loss of elasticity due to frequent sexual intercourse,
- Vaginal muscle relaxation with advancing age,
- Sagging caused by gynecological interventions,
- For genetic reasons, the muscles are looser than they should be, or the vagina is wide,
- Birth scars that are not fully healed,
- Vaginal noise while sitting or during sexual intercourse,
- Loss of tightness of the muscles due to excessive weight loss.
In addition, the person to be treated should not suffer from chronic diseases such as diabetes and blood pressure, and his general health should be suitable for the procedure.
During Vaginoplasty
In the operation, which takes about 1 – 1.5 hours under general anesthesia, a 3 – 4 centimeter inward tightening and tightening process is applied from the vaginal entrance.
During the surgery, vaginal canal narrowing, removal of the necessary amount of mucosa and muscle tissue and tightening of the relaxed muscle structures are performed. Thus, the vagina is made tighter and narrowed about 1-2 centimeters.
This procedure can be performed in other genital surgeries at the same time. So much so that labiaplasty surgery is often performed together with vaginoplasty surgery. In this way, labiaplasty is applied to patients with vulva inner lip sagging after vaginal tightening, and both problems are solved simultaneously. However, it should not be forgotten that performing two operations at the same time will prolong the operation time: A combined genital operation can take approximately 2 hours.
