Genital aesthetics is a plastic surgery application that individuals apply to improve the aesthetic appearance of their genitals. This procedure is suitable for individuals of all ages and genders, especially women. This treatment, which corrects the factors that cause aesthetic concerns in the genital area, increases the quality of life by increasing the self-confidence of the person. It also makes sexual experiences more satisfying and satisfying. Genital aesthetics helps the individual to make peace with their physical appearance and establish a more harmonious relationship with their body.
Which Procedures are Applied in Genital Aesthetics?
Aesthetic and functional changes can be observed in the genital area over time, due to factors such as aging, hormonal changes due to childbirth or menopause. Such changes can affect a woman’s self-confidence and lead to problems with sexual health. Skin structure and elasticity are also important factors affecting these changes in the genital area. In genital aesthetics, some of the procedures frequently used in women are as follows:
- Labiaplasty
- Clitoral Hudoplasty
- Vaginoplasty
Labioplasty
Labium refers to the lip-like structures that surround the entrance to the vagina. These structures are often referred to as “lips” because they resemble lips. Labiaplasty is the process of changing the size of these labia minora, called labia minora, in the vaginal area for aesthetic or functional purposes.
In some women, one labia may be longer or wider than the other and this may cause aesthetic concerns. On the other hand, inner lips that are too long or wide can cause discomfort or pain during sexual intercourse or physical activities. The skin can stretch too much during such activities, which can cause pain.
Labiaplasty aims to eliminate these problems and optimize the area both aesthetically and functionally. This procedure can help provide both physical and psychological comfort for women.
Clitoral Hudoplasty
Clitoral hudoplasty is an operation performed within the scope of female genital aesthetics. The clitoris is known as one of the areas where sensitivity peaks in women. In clitoral hudoplasty, the size of the skin covering the clitoris is reduced. In this way, the clitoris can receive more direct stimulation during sexual intercourse and increase the pleasure the woman will receive. This procedure, which is usually performed together with labiaplasty, aims to meet both aesthetic and functional expectations of women.
Vaginoplasty
Vaginoplasty is an aesthetic operation that women apply to eliminate vaginal enlargement, especially after childbirth. Naturally, vaginal changes caused by time or childbirth can be uncomfortable for some women. Vaginoplasty minimizes these changes, giving the vagina a firmer and more youthful appearance. Thanks to this procedure, women can achieve a firmer and younger vaginal structure.
How is Genital Aesthetics Performed?
There are different methods and techniques in genital aesthetics. Labiaplasty is a surgical intervention usually performed using either general or local anesthesia and is typically completed between 1-2 hours. Clitoral hudoplasty is often performed during the same operation as labiaplasty. Although there are non-invasive options for vaginoplasty, such as laser treatment, surgical methods are usually preferred. Therefore, patients are anesthetized during the vaginoplasty procedure.
