What is Vaginal Aesthetics?
Female genital aesthetics, or vaginal aesthetics, refers to all aesthetic surgeries performed on the vagina and perineum, such as repairing vaginal tears after childbirth, eliminating unwanted scars in the genital area, narrowing a vagina that has widened for various reasons, or reducing the size of the labia minora.
In what situations is vaginal aesthetic surgery performed?
Female genital aesthetic surgery can be chosen by people of all ages.
- In women who have given birth many times, the vaginal structure loses its elasticity,
- In correcting congenital physical abnormalities in the structure of the vagina,
- In cases of structural deformities occurring in the vulva (especially if the labia majora are large),
- In cases where the vagina is deformed after difficult births,
- To address sexual dysfunction caused by incisions made in the vagina following various traumas,
- Since prolapses in the bladder and rectum can cause problems such as sexual dysfunction and urinary incontinence, female genital aesthetic procedures are also performed to address issues such as uterine prolapse.
What are the methods of vaginal aesthetics?
For female genital aesthetics, patients are typically offered:
- Labiaplasty (Aesthetic surgery of the inner and outer labia of the vagina),
- Clitoral Hudoplasty (Correction of remnants on the clitoris),

What are the procedures for vaginal aesthetic surgery?
The procedures last approximately one hour at most. These procedures are performed under general anesthesia, and the stitches begin to heal after a week. Complete healing occurs within a maximum of three weeks.
- Hymenoplasty:
In our country, hymen reconstruction, which is seen as a social necessity, is an operation that some women are forced to undergo. The procedure, which takes approximately half an hour, is performed using microsurgical techniques. For the operation, which is performed using a 3-layer flap-laser-assisted tissue fusion technique, to yield successful results, it is very important for the patient to avoid certain movements afterward. - Vaginal Tightening Surgery:
This operation, performed to enhance pleasure during sexual intercourse, narrows the vaginal opening. This restores the vaginal tissues to their original narrow and tight structure. A portion of the vaginal tissue is removed to shorten the muscles. Performed under general anesthesia, the operation takes approximately one hour. - Vaginoplasty:
This procedure, known as vaginal rejuvenation, is performed to restore the vagina to its former state. During the surgery, the stretched vaginal tissue is removed and the tissue around the vagina is tightened. - Labiaplasty:
Sometimes the labia minora (the inner labia of the vagina) can be excessively long and large. In such cases, the labia minora are reduced in size under local anesthesia so that they do not protrude between the labia majora. Anesthesia is applied to a limited area during this procedure. The operation, which takes approximately half an hour, allows the patient to return home shortly afterward. - Labia Majora Augmentation Procedure:
In cases where the labia majora are wrinkled and sagging, fat injection can be used to make them fuller. The procedure is performed under local or general anesthesia. The fat used is usually obtained from the patient’s abdominal area. The patient can return home after resting for a few hours.

After vaginal genital aesthetic procedures, patients can usually return to their daily lives within a short time. It is recommended that patients wear sanitary pads for two days. Furthermore, maintaining genital hygiene after surgery is important. Sexual intercourse should be avoided for approximately 1.5 months. Swelling, bruising, or spotting are normal after surgery.
These are low-risk surgeries. As long as hygiene rules are followed and sexual intercourse is avoided for an average of 1.5 months, no problems are encountered.
Vaginal tightening surgery improves both the shape and appearance of the vagina. It also restores the function of weakened vaginal muscles. This surgery increases resistance, tension, and tone in the vaginal canal. This increased tension helps enhance pleasure during sexual intercourse for both men and women.
This procedure can be performed on anyone who has passed puberty and has concerns about vaginal aesthetics. It is also performed on virgins if the hymen is not located 3 or 4 cm inside the vagina. This operation does not prevent pregnancy or childbirth.
