Vaginal Rejuvenation or Labiaplasty: Which one do I need?

The amazing world of cosmetic improvements and beautification procedures have broken new ground in the last decade, especially here in Austin, Texas. Providing people with not only more options but increasing the general level of comfort for women to openly discuss their intimate powerbase, as well as their desire — and sometimes need — to improve them.

Like fingerprints, each woman is unique and individually beautiful in her own skin. However, with age and the natural effects of gravity and childbirth these same amazing females find that their womanhood is less vibrant than it once was. This is where medical solutions such as vaginal rejuvenation and labiaplasty come in.

Vaginal rejuvenation is a procedure that restores vitality and the anatomy of the vagina. The procedure involves restoring the structure of the vaginal opening and vaginal canal. The purpose of this is to provide a more appealing appearance as well as tighten and increase sensation during intimate occasions. In addition, this procedure is often needed if one has prolapse or a rectocele after natural childbirth. When patients come to us for vaginal rejuvenation the procedure is performed in the hospital under general anesthesia.

Another option is labiaplasty, which is a procedure that reduces the size of the labia minora or inner labia. A labiaplasty can also minimize the outer portion of the vagina (outer labia) or labia majora. Many women feel the need for this procedure due to discomfort when wearing snug or tight clothing, working out, or during intercourse — the latter of which can entail pinching and cause further stretching of the labia.

A labiaplasty is also an appropriate procedure when a woman is born with asymmetric labia, or finds that she is not satisfied with her vagina’s appearance. The procedure is performed in the specialized professional’s office using oral and local sedation. Before and after labiaplasty procedures are often night and day for the women who underwent them, in terms of appearance, comfort, and happiness. And the labiaplasty recovery time is convenient for most women’s lifestyles.

Whether a woman is investing in herself with a labiaplasty or vaginal rejuvenation, finding the right professional that not only performs these surgical procedures but also has a real understanding of the true elaborateness of a woman’s most intimate features is of paramount importance.
