Intimate plastic surgery

The acceptance of cosmetic surgery is increasing day by day, and the scope of cosmetic surgery is also expanding, from the popular facial plastic surgery and breast augmentation to the once untouchable intimate plastic surgery (Sexual Plastic Surgery). In fact, various congenital and acquired malformations of female genitalia are not uncommon, especially postpartum women with loose vaginas and enlarged labia minora, which not only make them lose their beautiful private parts, but also directly affect their feelings about sex. In the past, women were too embarrassed to go to the doctor due to the traditional consciousness. With the improvement of living standard and the change of ideology, modern women’s pursuit for the function and shape of their reproductive organs has been rising. At present, there are several common intimate plastic surgery projects: 1, labia minora plastic surgery: women’s labia minora have a variety of forms, about 4-5 cm long, about 0.5-1.0 cm wide, the curve is natural and beautiful. There are some women with excessive hypertrophy or asymmetry of the labia minora, in addition to the lack of beauty, can also cause some local discomfort. Labia minora plastic surgery generally only needs to remove the oversized part of labia minora tissue under local anesthesia, so that the incision line is located on the outside of labia minora and the original curve edge is preserved. 2.Vaginal laxity correction surgery: women’s vaginal muscles are weakened, ligaments are relaxed and mucosal folds are reduced due to childbirth, long-term sexual life and trauma (birth injury and surgery), which makes the vagina too lax. During sexual intercourse and exercise, the vaginal grip is weakened and the air entering and leaving the vagina makes abnormal noises, resulting in less sexual pleasure and seriously affecting the harmony of sexual life. The surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia. For women with birth scars or a particularly loose vagina, the mucous membrane of the posterior vaginal wall can be removed directly and the muscles surrounding the vagina can be tightened for the purpose of tightening. For young women or women with an intact vaginal opening, a tightening procedure that does not damage the vaginal mucosa can be performed without removing the mucosa and directly tightening the vaginal muscles. 3, hymenoplasty: Although hymen repair surgery has received a lot of criticism and opposition in recent years, the virginity complex has been deeply rooted in people’s hearts due to the influence of thousands of years of feudal thought in China. Hymen rupture for various reasons can cause serious psychological trauma to women, and hymenoplasty can restore a woman’s confidence and dignity to some extent. After surgical trimming of the hymenal fissure edge, direct suturing, tile suturing or vaginal mucosal flap repair of the hymen can be used. 4, clitoroplasty: the size of the clitoris always varies somewhat between individuals. The cause of clitoral hypertrophy is mainly due to congenital malformations, but also due to high androgen levels, the cause of which needs to be carefully examined to be clear. The causes of clitoral hypertrophy can be surgically removed from the oversized clitoris. The surgical design used today not only reduces the size of the clitoris, but also preserves the sensitivity of the clitoris to sexual stimulation. Because of the specificity of the site, the wound in the perineum is easily contaminated by urine and faeces, and the moist environment of the vagina is also conducive to the reproduction of bacteria, so post-operative care of the sexual organs is particularly important. Three days before the surgery, the vulva should be cleaned daily with 0.1% Neosporin. After the surgery, in addition to paying attention to keeping the vulva clean and dry, the vulva can be cleaned daily with 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution, locally coated with antibiotic ointment, oral antibiotics, etc.
