Cosmetic Gynaecology

Cosmetic Gynaecology

Description

Cosmetic gynecology is a field of medicine focused on aesthetic and functional enhancements of the female genitalia. This specialty combines aspects of both cosmetic surgery and gynecology to address concerns related to the appearance, function, and overall health of the vulva, vagina, and surrounding areas.

Hymenoplasty

Hymenoplasty is a surgical procedure that aims to reconstruct or repair the hymen, a thin membrane that partially covers the vaginal opening. The hymen can be stretched or torn due to various activities such as sexual intercourse, physical exercise, or tampon use. In some cultures or personal beliefs, the presence of an intact hymen is associated with virginity or purity.

Vaginoplasty

Vaginoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves reconstructing or tightening the vaginal canal. The procedure typically involves removing excess tissue, tightening the vaginal walls, and sometimes reshaping the vaginal opening. Recovery times can vary, and the procedure can be associated with risks like any surgery, including infection, scarring, and changes in sensation.

Labioplasty

Labioplasty, also known as labiaplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to alter the appearance or size of the labia minora (the inner lips of the vulva) and/or the labia majora (the outer lips of the vulva). The procedure typically involves removing excess tissue and reshaping the labia. Recovery time can vary, but most people experience some swelling and discomfort in the initial weeks after surgery.
