Vaginoplasty is a surgical procedure chosen by women to improve their health and quality of life. This procedure encompasses many details, from the preparation phase to the advantages it offers and the postoperative recovery process.
Before vaginoplasty, there are several important steps to follow. It is crucial to quit harmful habits such as smoking and alcohol consumption before the operation. In cases of pregnancy, a pregnancy test is necessary to determine whether the procedure can be performed. Following the instructions of Dr. Burak PASİNLİOĞLU and refraining from consuming any food or drink approximately 12 hours before the surgery are essential for a successful procedure.
The primary goal of vaginoplasty is to tighten the tissues around the vagina and remove excess tissue, thus restoring the vaginal aesthetic appearance and eliminating abnormal appearances. Additionally, the tightening effect enhances sexual pleasure.
During the recovery period after the surgery, experiencing mild pain and bleeding is normal and usually not a cause for concern. Applying ice can help reduce swelling. It is important to refrain from sexual intercourse for a specified period recommended by the doctor and to rest as advised. The use of painkillers should be in accordance with the doctor’s recommendations and prescription instructions.
There are many questions commonly asked about vaginoplasty.
