What is perineoplasty?
Perineoplasty is a surgical procedure that focuses on deformities, defects, damages and defects of a woman’s anus and vagina. Specifically, the surgery removes scar tissue, unsightly bulges and unwanted skin, and then tightens or relaxes the perineal muscles, vagina.
An additional benefit of perineoplasty is that by making these adjustments, the surgery also serves to restore the woman’s self-confidence and physically increase her levels of sexual pleasure.
How is perineoplasty performed?
Perineoplasty is an outpatient procedure that usually takes about an hour under general or local anesthesia. It rarely requires hospitalization.
During perineoplasty, a ‘V’ shaped incision is made on the posterior vaginal wall. Scar tissue, protrusions and other damage are removed. Depending on the reason for the surgery, the muscles are either tightened or relaxed to correct the problem, and then they are carefully stitched together. After a short recovery period, the patient is allowed to go home.
