Genitalia Cosmetic Surgery Gaining Popularity - Monday, January 28, 2008
Cosmetic labiaplasty (labia reduction surgery and beautification) involves surgically reducing and/or reshaping the female external genital structures. There are multiple reasons more and more women are requesting this procedure. They want to alleviate discomfort caused by large and/or thick labia, which often interfere with biking, working out, and wearing tight fitting clothes. Or many women want to enhance or improve appearance of 'butterfly' or asymmetrical labia. Feeling good about how you look often builds self-confidence and self-esteem. This is one of the main reasons many cosmetic surgery procedures continue to gain popularity.During your labiaplasty consultation, your surgeon will explain how long the labia reduction surgery will take, the amount of time and care necessary for a full labiaplasty recovery, and exactly when after surgery it would be safe to resume sexual intercourse.
Vaginoplasty (rejuvenation of the vagina) involves tightening and rebuilding of the vaginal muscles and the perineum. Childbirth, (especially multiple), aging, and genetic factors often cause the vaginal muscles to loosen, tear, and weaken. The diameter of the vagina gets bigger and there is a loss of feeling (and pleasure). Vaginoplasty returns the vagina to 'pre-pregnancy' state and recreates sexual excitement and pleasure for the woman. Some surgones use a laser for vaginoplasty and/or labiaplasty surgery. You may hear varaitions of terms such as: labiaplasty or laser labiaplasty; vaginal rejuvenation and vaginoplasty; laser vaginoplasty or vaginal tightening. The difference is that some cosmetic surgeons are trained to use the laser for cosmetic vaginal surgery and reconstructive vaginal surgery and some use a scalpel.
