Vaginoplasty in Abu Dhabi

What is Vaginoplasty?

Vaginoplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to reconstruct the vagina. It addresses a variety of medical concerns, including vaginal injuries, congenital conditions, and other issues affecting vaginal health and function.

What does vaginoplasty treat?

Vaginal Laxity After Childbirth

• Women may experience vaginal laxity due to the stretching of tissues and separation of muscles during childbirth.

Correcting Birth Defects

• The procedure can correct congenital conditions or birth defects affecting the vaginal area.

Improving Sexual Function

• By removing excess tissue and tightening the vaginal muscles, vaginoplasty can enhance sexual function and sensation.

Aesthetic and Functional Benefits

• Vaginoplasty can result in a tighter, more aesthetically pleasing appearance of the vagina.

Benefits of Vaginoplasty

For repairing congenital abnormalities, vaginoplasty may include:

• Creating a functional vagina.
• Removing excess or abnormal tissue.
• Preventing blood from pooling during menstruation.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Vaginoplasty?

Women Experiencing Discomfort or Pain

• Women with discomfort or pain during sexual intercourse may benefit from vaginoplasty.

Aesthetic Concerns

• Those dissatisfied with the appearance of their genitalia may also be candidates for the procedure.

 Post-Chemotherapy or Radiation

• Women who have undergone chemotherapy or radiation therapy, which can cause vaginal dryness and tightness, may find relief through this procedure.

Post-Childbirth

• Women who have had multiple vaginal births may consider vaginoplasty to address stretched or weakened vaginal muscles.

How to prepare for Vaginoplasty?

• Consult with your doctor: Discuss your goals, concerns, and get answers to any specific questions about the surgery.
• Provide medical history: Share your comprehensive medical and family history with your aesthetic gynecologist.
• Physical exam: The doctor will perform a thorough examination and may request some tests to assess your readiness for surgery.
• Stop smoking to promote better healing.
• Avoid aspirin, certain anti-inflammatory drugs, and some herbal medications to reduce bleeding risk.
• Stay hydrated before and after surgery for a safe recovery.

What to Expect During Vaginoplasty Surgery

It’s an outpatient procedure that doesn’t require a hospital stay or long recovery time. No general anesthesia is needed; you may receive some sedation with local anesthesia if necessary, allowing you to remain fully conscious during the procedure.

Recovery and Aftercare

• In the first week after surgery, apply ice to the area for 20 minutes every hour or two to reduce swelling.
• Avoid baths or submersion in water for 8 weeks.
• You can resume sexual intercourse after 3 months, unless otherwise directed by your doctor.
• Refrain from strenuous activity for at least 6 weeks. Consult your doctor about when and which types of sports you can safely resume.
• Sitting may be uncomfortable for the first month; use a donut ring to reduce discomfort.
• Dilators (a postoperative tool, with instructions from your doctor on how to use them) may be provided for use during the recovery period.
• Postoperative pain is normal, and pain medication may be prescribed to manage it.

Risks and Complications

Complications and risks of the surgery may include:

• Infection: There is a risk of infection due to the sensitivity of the area, which becomes more exposed to external bacteria and microorganisms. To prevent this, your doctor will prescribe antibiotics and special douching. It’s important to follow the instructions carefully to ensure the best results.
• Fistula formation: In rare cases, the surgery may result in the formation of an abnormal opening (fistula) between the vagina and urinary tract (from the front) or between the vagina and rectum (from behind). These complications are uncommon, which is why it’s important to choose an experienced surgeon in vaginoplasty, such as those at Reem Hospital.
• Painful sexual experiences or loss of sensation: Some individuals may experience pain during sexual activity or a loss of sensation in the area.
• Vaginal narrowing: If dilators are not used correctly, they can cause stenosis (narrowing) of the vaginal canal.
