Surgery for pelvic floor muscle repair and tightening, including internal and external vaginal tightening.
- Preparation for the surgery: It begins with a medical consultation to assess the condition and determine the required procedure, which will be performed under general or regional anesthesia.
- Internal muscle tightening: The surgeon tightens and sutures the relaxed pelvic floor muscles inside the vagina.
- Removal of excess tissue: The excess skin from the vaginal lining is removed to reduce its internal diameter. Ask ChatGPT
- Internal tightening: The tissues and muscles are stitched using absorbable sutures to narrow the vaginal canal.
- External beautification: The tissues at the vaginal opening are tightened to improve appearance and narrow the external opening.
- Recovery period: The healing process takes about 6 weeks, during which strenuous activities and sexual intercourse should be avoided.
Bladder lift surgery and treatment of urinary incontinence and sphincter muscle laxity through the vaginal approach.
- Objective: To restore the bladder to its normal position and support the urethra to prevent leakage.
- Surgical approach: The procedure is performed entirely through an incision inside the vagina, with no external cuts.
- Bladder lift: The bladder is lifted and the supporting tissues between it and the vagina are strengthened.
- Treatment of urinary incontinence: A small surgical mesh is placed under the urethra to support it and prevent urine leakage.
- Wound closure: Excess tissue is removed from the vaginal wall, and the incision is closed with self-absorbing sutures.
- Recovery period: The patient needs about 6 weeks to heal, during which strenuous activity and sexual intercourse should be avoided.
Minor labia trimming and vaginal clitoral lift surgery:
- Objective of the surgery: To reduce the size of the labia minora and remove excess skin for a more balanced appearance and to treat irritation.
- Anesthesia and preparation: The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation, and laser technology may be used to enhance precision.
- Labia trimming: The surgeon cuts and removes excess tissue from the edges of the labia minora and sculpts them for a more aesthetic appearance.
- Clitoral hood lift: Excess skin surrounding the clitoris (the hood) is removed to better expose and enhance its appearance.
