Knowing what happens at each stage of the Perineoplasty surgery can help you feel prepared and more at ease. Here’s what you can expect:
How is the surgery performed?
Perineoplasty is a surgical procedure to tighten and reshape the vaginal opening. A diamond shaped area of skin is removed and the muscles, soft tissues and skin are reconstructed with fine sutures. Surgery takes under 1 hour and is usually carried out as a day case procedure under general anaesthesia. Perineoplasty can be combined with surgical tightening of the vaginal canal if required (vaginoplasty).
How long does it take to recover?
Downtime after a perineoplasty is around 2 weeks. During this time it is best to wear loose clothing and avoid anything too strenuous. During this time you will usually need to take regular pain relief. Tampon insertion and intercourse should be avoided for at least 6 weeks. After this time you can usually resume normal activities. Healing is complete after 3-6 months.
What are the outcomes of perineoplasty?
In addition to the enhanced cosmetic appearance after perineoplasty, women often describe increased self-confidence and sexual satisfaction. The vast majority of women recover well from surgery without complications. However as with all surgery, there are risks such as bleeding, infection, wound breakdown, scarring, pain, and painful intercourse.
