Follow-up: What labiaplasty method for the saggy skin at the bottom?
Achievable!
Jun 11, 2020
Thank you for your question! The crinkled dark tissue between the vaginal opening and the anus is the perineum, and a perineoplasty will help with the appearance in this area.
The photo showing your desired results also includes a labiaplasty and some refinement around the clitoral hood. The labia would not change with perineoplasty alone. For the neat, tucked in look you describe the trim method may be a good approach.
Can getting labia removed that is extremely close to your clitoris/clitoral hood cause nerve damage/
Nerves to the clitoris should not be affected
Jun 4, 2020
Thank you for this excellent question, I think most women are concerned about clitoral sensation. The nerve branch that travels to the clitoris does not travel within the labia minora and should not be affected by a labiaplasty.
There is incredible variety in the area where labia minora approach the clitoral hood. It is not uncommon to see a difference when the right side is compared to the left, as you have noticed. It takes an artful surgical approach to address this as…
Is this a rectocele and will it affect a vaginoplasty?
A combined procedure would be ideal
Mar 30, 2020
Hello there in Florida! The vagina and the lower part of the rectum share a wall that is supported by strong connective tissue. It’s not unusual to be able to feel the stool through the vaginal wall, and it doesn’t always mean that a rectocele is present.
However, your symptoms may be much more noticeable if the vaginal opening is tightened without having repair of the tissues that are further inside or higher in the vaginal canal. You are very correct in that it could…
I have been recommended a unilateral labiaplasty. I am worried the results won’t be what I wa
If you’re happy and you know it…
Mar 30, 2020
Thank you for your question! If you are happy with the appearance of the right labium, then let her be. Let your surgeon know that your goals are for the procedure – many women with this appearance are looking for symmetry.
Can a labiaplasty be done without clitoropexy? I want the hood reduced as much as possible, b
Hood reduction
Mar 13, 2020
Thank you for your question, I know many women have similar concerns. You have normal and beautiful anatomy for an adult woman, but it sounds like you would like to have the loose tissue reduced. From the pictures, I do see redundant tissue in the area covering the clitoris.
I think of the procedure more as a hood reduction, not a clitoropexy. The procedure would smooth out the redundancy of the skin covering the clitoris, but the clitoris itself would not be affected…
Is my vagina prolapsed? How long is the recovery?
Yes, this is prolapse
Feb 18, 2020
Congratulations on your babies, and thank you for your question. Your diagnosis is correct – you appear to have both anterior (front) and posterior (back) compartment prolapse, as well as a widened opening. In many cases the uterus descends as well.
For women with posterior compartment prolapse, it’s not unusual to need to press on the perineum or inside the vagina to help the stool come out. Needless to say this can be distressing!
Most surgeons recommend 6-8 weeks…
Does vaginoplasty fix a loose anus?
Changes after vaginoplasty
Feb 18, 2020
Thank you for your question! Although a vaginoplasty would not alter the rectum itself, the connective tissue between the rectum and vagina will be more supportive. This helps with the sensation of snugness during vaginal intercourse, and you might expect the same result during anal intercourse.
Regarding your question about your partner “feel[ing] heat” – sometimes it’s the man! Perhaps he would consider an evaluation by a urologist for this.
