Vaginoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to narrow the vaginal canal and strengthen the vaginal muscle structure. It is a procedure aimed at improving both function and quality of life in patients experiencing medical vaginal laxity.
Vaginal tissue laxity most commonly occurs due to normal childbirth, weakening of connective tissue with age, and in some cases, genetic tissue structure.
What Does Vaginal Looseness Lead To?
The loosening of vaginal muscles and supporting tissues can cause the following complaints in some women:
- Decreased sensation during sexual intercourse
- A feeling of looseness or widening in the vaginal area
Mild urinary incontinence due to pelvic floor weakness (especially when coughing or sneezing)
- Decreased self-confidence and quality of sexual life
Vaginoplasty aims to correct this structural loosening.
Who is it suitable for?
Vaginoplasty may be considered in the following cases:
- Those experiencing significant vaginal laxity after childbirth
- Those with functional complaints due to vaginal widening
- Patients who report decreased sensation in their sexual life
Individuals whose general health is suitable for surgery
