Types of Vaginal Rejuvenation 

Vaginal rejuvenation is a generic term that refers to several types of surgery with the common goal of adding shape and beauty to vagina area. These procedure types come in two types, the surgical and non-surgical options. In below, you can first get to know the main types of surgical vaginal rejuvenation:

1.Vaginoplasty (Vaginal tightening)

Vaginoplasty, also known as vaginal tightening, is a surgery intended at tightening the pelvic muscle in vagina. Aging and childbirth can result in natural loosening of your vagina. Read the following to get to know the main steps of Vaginoplasty:

• In this procedure, the surgeon starts by determining the amount of tightening.
• Then he/she outlines the extra skin to be removed from inside the vagina.
• Next, the surgeon uses strong sutures to tighten tissues beneath the skin.
• At last he/she closes the skin using the sutures.
• To achieve better results, there can also be a reduction in external skin that protrudes.

2.Labiaplasty

A Labiaplasty is type of vaginal rejuvenation surgery that removes excess skin from lips of vagina. This can both shorten and reshape the labia minora. In below you can get to know the main steps of a labiaplasty surgery:

• The surgery starts by applying general anaesthetic or a local anaesthetic with sedation.
• Next, your surgery removes the extra tissue from labia minora using a scalpel
• At last, he/she may fine stitches to stitch loose edge and applies absorbable sutures to close the incisions.

3.Clitoral hood reduction

The clitoral hood is a flap of tissue covering the clitoris. This tissue can sometimes become larger than normal due to genetics, aging, or medications. Here, a clitoral hood reduction surgery can help reduce the size and the area of the clitoral hood. This is a good choice for women who are worried about excess skin or hooding along the top of the clitoris. The following are the main steps of clitoral hood reduction surgery:

• At first, the surgeon applies general or local anaesthesia
• Then, he/she marks the excess tissue that needs to be removed based on the individual’s anatomy
• He/she ends the surgery by closing the incisions using absorbable sutures

4.Labia majoraplasty

Labia majoraplasty is a procedure that only triggers the labia majora. Below are the main steps of the procedure:

• The surgery starts by removing two slight crescents of skin from the inner part of each labium
• If necessary, your plastic surgeon may transfer a small amount of fat from another area of the body using liposuction to the area
• At last, he/she applies absorbable sutures to close the incisions

5.Labia augmentation with fat transfer

Labia Majora Augmentation via Autologous Fat Transfer (AFT) is a procedure in which the patient’s own fat is transferred to the labia majora. The purpose of the procedure is to give a fuller and more youthful appearance to the labia majora, while eliminating sagging skin. Labia augmentation with fat transfer is mainly done as an outpatient surgery. In below you can find the main steps of the procedure:

• At first your surgeon uses liposuction to harvest the fat from areas with excess fat deposits such as stomach, thighs, or hips.
• Secondly, the surgeon will clean the fat, purifying it of any dead fat cell.
• Next, the surgeon injects the suctioned fat into the labia using specialized, small syringes
• At last, the labia gets its fuller and shapelier contour. However, it may appear larger than desired after injection. This mainly due to the expected fat absorption following the procedure that reduces the size of labia to the desired one.

What is a “Designer Vagina”?

Designer vagina is a catchy term that refers to several kinds of surgeries performed on vulva and vagina. However, not all types of vaginal rejuvenation surgery come under this generic term. In fact, designer vagina only includes vaginal rejuvenation surgeries that are cosmetic in nature. In below you can observe the distinctive features of a “designer vagina”:

• “designer vagina” only refers to cosmetic vaginal rejuvenation surgeries and does not include any reconstructive surgery
• Labiaplasty, Clitoral hood reduction, and Labia majoraplasty are mainly cosmetic and can be considered as a “designer vagina”
• While Vaginal Tightening or Vaginplasty is mainly reconstructive it can also be a “designer vagina” in specific cases where there is only cosmetic purposes

Labiaplasty VS Labia Augmentation with Fat Transfer

While labiaplasty and Labia augmentation with fat transfer are both procedures on labia, there are common and different features between them. First, you can find the common features of the two procedures in below:

• Both procedures trigger the labia
• Labiaplasty and Labia augmentation with fat transfer can both improve the contour of labia

In the following, you can get a brief knowledge of the differences of the two vaginal surgery types:

• Labiaplasty reduces the size of labia minora to give it a shapelier contour
• Labia augmentation with fat transfer typically augments the labia to give it a fuller appearance
• Unlike Labiaplasty, labia augmentation with fat transfer involves liposuction and injection

Who can Perform Labiaplasty Surgery?

Plastic surgeons, gynecologists and OB-GYN’s, or obstetrician-gynecologists, are qualified to perform labiaplasty. However, it is recommended that you chose a gynecologist or OB-GYN for your surgery. This is mainly due to the fact that both gynecologists and OB-GYN’s have extensive knowledge about vaginal surgery. Rest assured that Flora will find the best and most qualified surgeons to perform your labiaplasty in Iran.

Preparing for Labiaplasty

To have a safest and most successful labiaplasty surgery, you cannot jump into the surgery without preparation. Therefore, you need to take some measures and follow certain orders before your surgery day. In the following you can find the main instructions on how to get prepared for a labiaplasty surgery:

• Stay away from blood thinners and medications such as NSAIDs for at least two weeks prior to your labiaplasty surgery.
• Avoid taking supplements, such as vitamin C, herbal supplements, and weight-loss supplements, for at least four weeks before your labiaplasty surgery
• Do not eat or drink anything for at least eight hours before your surgery. However, if you have necessary medications to take, you can do it with a small sip of water.
• Get enough rest in night before your procedure

Techniques of Labiaplsty Surgery

1.Trim labiaplasty

This is the most common surgical method to perform labiaplasty. This technique begins by making an incision that removes the outer edge of the inner labia. This, in turn, evens out the inner labia with the outer labia (or slightly receded).

2.Wedge labiaplasty

The wedge technique is a more novel alternative to trim labiaplasty. With this technique, your plastic surgeon removes a V-shaped “wedge” from both sides of the labia. Next, he/she stitches the remaining edges together.

3.De-epithelialization method

During this procedure, the surgeon first makes an incision in the central part of the inner aspects of each labia. Then, he/she uses a scalpel to remove the epithelial layer. At last, the surgeon ends the procedure by closing the two edges with stitches.

Risks and Side Effects of Labiaplasty

It is natural for any type of surgery to come with certain risks and side effects. Below you can find the main risks of labiaplasty surgery:

• Bleeding
