Vaginoplasty
Vaginoplasty is a restorative and cosmetic surgical procedure designed to tighten and rejuvenate the vaginal canal. Over time, factors such as childbirth, aging, hormonal changes, and genetic laxity can lead to loosening of vaginal tissues. This may result in decreased sexual satisfaction, reduced muscle tone, and sometimes urinary or functional discomfort. Vaginoplasty restores strength, elasticity, and structure to the vaginal walls, helping women regain confidence, comfort, and improved intimate wellness.
At our centre, Dr. B. R. N. Padmini performs vaginoplasty using advanced, safe, and precise surgical techniques. The procedure involves tightening the underlying pelvic floor muscles and removing excess vaginal tissue to create a firmer, more supportive vaginal canal. The goal is to restore both function and aesthetics while ensuring natural, comfortable results tailored to each patient’s anatomy.
Vaginoplasty is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or under general anesthesia, depending on patient preference and clinical evaluation. The surgery usually takes 60–90 minutes, and patients can return home the same day. Postoperative swelling and mild discomfort are normal during the initial days but subside quickly with proper care.
Recovery generally takes 4–6 weeks, during which patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity and sexual intercourse to allow proper healing. Full results become more apparent as tissues mature and settle over time. Women who undergo vaginoplasty often report increased confidence, improved sexual satisfaction, and better vaginal muscle tone.
With a compassionate approach and strong expertise in intimate cosmetic surgery, Dr. B. R. N. Padmini ensures that each patient receives personalized care, privacy, and a safe surgical experience that restores both comfort and confidence.
Frequently Asked Questions
When do vaginoplasty required?
They are usually women with a history of vaginal delivery, with or without complaints of leakage of urine on exertion, sensation of vaginal enlargement, elimination of vaginal flatus (air) during sexual intercourse, loss or decrease in sexual pleasure (lack of contact and friction during penetration).
How is the surgery performed?
Through a longitudinal incision in the vaginal introitus, the posterior mucosa of the vaginal wall is detached, exposing the PFM (Musculature of the Pelvic Floor) and the perineal sphincter. The approximation of these muscles is performed, removing the excess of the mucosa and the perineal skin, with simple and VY closure.
What can I expect from the results of the surgery?
You can expect a tighter vagina, better achieving and increasing sexual pleasure. Also, some benefit in controlling urine loss on exertion.
Is vaginoplasty painful?
Mild discomfort is expected initially, but anesthesia ensures a pain-free procedure.
How long is the recovery period?
Most patients recover within 4–6 weeks.
When can I resume sexual activity?
Typically after 6 weeks, depending on healing.
Are the results permanent?
Results are long-lasting, especially with pelvic floor care and healthy lifestyle habits.
Is the procedure safe?
Yes, when performed by an experienced surgeon like Dr. Padmini, it is considered safe and effective.
Will scars be visible?
No, incisions are internal, and scars heal naturally over time.
What should be the preoperative preparation for performing Vaginoplasty
It is recommended to perform physical therapy exercises to strengthen the pelvic muscles, according to medical advice. Two days before surgery, use a low-fiber, low-residue diet. The day before surgery, use of laxatives for bowel emptying. The day before and the day of surgery, intimate cleaning with antiseptic soaps.
