The process of vaginal rejuvenation involves changing the appearance of a woman’s vagina from the outside. The purpose of this treatment is to make the vagina appear younger.
There is no doubt that it can have positive effects along with health benefits. Different types of these methods usually affect the inner labia, outer labia, or both. There has been an increase in the demand for this rejuvenation in recent years.
Why do people undergo vaginal rejuvenation?
Vaginal rejuvenation is generally performed to correct and balance the appearance of the vagina as well as beautifying it.
The vagina is usually recommended for rejuvenation when it loses its elasticity and control. As a result of vaginal relaxation, women may experience changes in their menstrual cycle and menopause.
After the age of 30, collagen production decreases and continues to decrease. Many women may experience physiological or physical discomfort as a result of this situation.
Natural childbirth may also cause vaginal relaxation due to the large size of the child. The diameter of the vagina can also increase due to excess weight, causing the following discomforts:
Sexual satisfaction is decreased
Incontinence of the urinary system
In severe cases, there may be dryness or sensitivity
Physical discomfort and difficulty
Underwear and pants that cause discomfort and difficulty
Incontinence of the urinary system
What are the different types of vaginal rejuvenation?
You can choose the best procedure for vaginal rejuvenation for yourself based on the condition you are in; but the main procedures are:
Labiaplasty
During this procedure, specialists improve the appearance of minor and major labia when they are too large or loose, drooping, or wrinkled, which may interfere with hygiene and sexual pleasure. Sagging and its size are reduced by surgery.
Lipoplasty and fat removal
In this procedure, excess fat is removed from the vagina or vulva, which affects the area above the main labia, and makes the vagina look more attractive and shaved.
Injection of fat and strength labiaplasty
The specialist injects fat into the labia’s skin in this situation. In this area, it reduces wrinkles and softens the skin. Furthermore, the skin thickness increases, which results in a fresher and younger vagina.
Perinoplasty
It affects the lower part of the vagina towards the anus, which is usually prone to injury during natural childbirth, but this procedure increases sexual satisfaction by restoring the elasticity of the tissues and enhancing their appearance.
Vaginoplasty
By performing this surgery, the vaginal muscles are strengthened, excess tissue is removed, and the vaginal diameter is reduced. The vagina becomes firmer and stronger as excess mucus is removed from this area.
Rejuvenating the vaginal area without surgery
Non-surgical methods can also be recommended, including the following:
radio frequency
By using electromagnetic waves that produce heat and change the collagen fiber model, they can increase the elasticity of the vagina.
Fraxel laser
This method improves urinary incontinence and softens the vagina by collagenizing and elastinizing.
Yag laser
This method increases the elasticity of the vaginal neck and bladder.
What are the complications associated with vaginal rejuvenation?
Despite the growing demand for vaginal rejuvenation, there is no strong evidence that these methods are effective or safe.
Apart from the dangers it carries, it may not have many positive effects on beauty and health, such as sensitivity, infection, adhesion, sores, or pain during intercourse.
Several women who have undergone these surgeries have experienced problems during menopause.
As the tissues of this area thin naturally, any gap or surgical site causes the vagina to become thin and narrow, and side effects increase after menopause. During intercourse, reducing the diameter of the vagina or creating tension in this area may also cause pain. Non-surgical methods, such as general exercises, are usually recommended by doctors.
