Loose vagina. Is there any type of surgery that will make me tight again?

Hello Lala1130,Many women notice a change in sensation following a vaginal delivery. There are great surgical and non-surgical options, but the best treatment for you depends on many factors that requires a thorough evaluation by an expert gynecologic surgeon. I recommend you find a reconstructive and cosmetic vaginal surgeon who is experienced in evaluating vaginal looseness. Avoid seeing a plastic surgeon or dermatologist for this condition since they have zero experience in vaginal reconstruction.Best of luck,Oscar A.

Hello, of course, there are both surgical and non-surgical methods for vaginal tightening. However, surgical vaginoplasty surgery is permanent for life.

Thank you for your questionAbsolutely there is surgery that can help, but you need to be very careful on choosing a surgeon that will do the most appropriate procedures for your situation.The vagina is like a six sided tube: entrance, apex, upper inside(bladder), lower inside(rectum) and two sides. Each of these needs to be evaluated and has different treatments. My best analogy for understanding what is going on the inside is the steel belted tire which which has a strong support structure (fascia steel belt) and a flexible stretchable surface which has grooves(mucosatread). When the steel belt tears, the tread balloons out increasing the surface area and smoothes out the grooves. This is what is called "an acquired sensation of smooth/wide vagina. There typically are several defects that can occur from childbirth and these can all be corrected best by a procedure called " site specific defect repair".. You need a surgeon who knows how to identify and correct each of the possible defects within the length of the vagina as well as defects on the entrance(orifice) and apex. Be aware that once these are repaired you should not have another vaginal delivery so if you get pregnant again you will need a caesarian section. Do your homework and research well looking at reviews and before and after photos.
