Traveling From San Antonio To Austin For Vaginal Rejuvenation

In need of a little R&R? And by R&R, we mean rest and rejuvenation – as in vaginal rejuvenation, of course. If so, look no further than Austin, Texas – home to a booming cultural scene and our very own Dr. George Shashoua, a board-certified surgeon specializing in female pelvic medicine. 

Given how critical it is to find an experienced doctor like Dr. Shashoua to perform an intricate surgery like vaginoplasty, it’s no wonder women are traveling to Austin from all over Texas (San Antonio, Waco, Dallas… you name it) for vaginal rejuvenation. And seeing as Austin is an up-and-coming travel destination, many women are choosing to make a whole vacation out of their surgery. 

But let’s back it up for a second: what is vaginal rejuvenation in the first place? Why would you need it? Due to causes like aging and childbirth, it’s common for the vagina and perineum to stretch over time. Vaginal laxity causes decreased sensation during sex, and it can even be an indicator of vaginal prolapse. Fortunately there are several treatment options available ranging from radio-frequency therapy to surgical reconstruction. 

Surgery to restore the vagina and perineum is known as vaginoplasty. When it comes to vaginal rejuvenation, vaginoplasty offers the most promising, long-lasting results. By tightening the structural layers of the vagina, sex can become more pleasurable. You might be insecure about the appearance of your vagina, too, in which case vaginal rejuvenation could give you a confidence boost as well. If vaginal prolapse is present, a prolapse repair is also performed in conjunction with vaginal rejuvenation. 

It’s absolutely essential that if you’re getting a vaginoplasty, you work with an experienced, board-certified surgeon. Seeing as this is a major procedure, you should see a provider who specializes in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery. Enter: Dr. Shashoua, an Austin-based board-certified urogynecologist with years of experience in vaginal rejuvenation. It can be difficult to find a surgeon with this specialty, so patients will regularly visit from out-of-town. Waco, Houston, San Antonio and Dallas are all short drives away, so you can absolutely travel to Austin for vaginal rejuvenation or vaginoplasty – or rather, a vajay-cay.

So what does a vajay-cay entail? First up, we’ll schedule a consultation. As with any consultation this gives us a chance to better understand your medical history, your needs, and what you’re hoping to achieve with vaginal rejuvenation. Following your consultation, we’ll get your procedure scheduled – and you can start planning your trip to Austin! 

Once your surgery is done, you’ll need a friend or family member to help you get a ride to wherever you’re recuperating (have we mentioned how many nearby hotels there are in Austin?). We typically ask patients to come in a couple times after surgery to see how they’re healing, but remote visits are also possible if you’re doing well. Ready to plan your vajay-cay?
