How safe is a vaginoplasty?

Thank you for reaching out. Vaginoplasty when done by an experienced surgeon comes with minimal risk. Now, that's not to say that there is no risk. Depending on the degree of reconstruction that is done in the posterior vaginal wall, there may be a risk of injury to the rectum or anal sphincter. Your particular degree of reconstruction would be determined by a thorough history and pelvic exam. As with any surgery there is also a risk for bleeding, infection and incisional breakdown. I recommend if you are considering this procedure, find a provider who is certified and performs these procedures regularly to reduce your risk for negative outcomes.

Hi! Vaginoplasty with perineoplasty is a procedure that many seek out to improve their intimate life. Under the hands of a skilled surgeon, it should be straight forward. However, some patients may not be candidates if the for example if they have uncontrolled diabetes and or are smokers. Healing slows down tremendously which can lead to break down of some of the tissue and thus negate the whole purpose of the surgery. It is best to be upfront about your health when you consult your surgeon.

Vaginoplasty is very safe if the surgeon is skilled in the procedure, if the surgical facility and team are properly equipped and maintained to the highest standards, and if the patient is healthy and properly prepared for the procedure. If any of these elements are deficient or absent, you will not have an adequate level of safety for any procedure.

Hello, As a medical doctor specializing in genital aesthetic surgery, I can say that vaginoplasty is generally considered a safe procedure when performed by a qualified and experienced surgeon. However, like any surgical procedure, it comes with its set of risks and potential complications, which can include bleeding, infection, and issues related to anesthesia. Here's a breakdown of the safety measures and potential risks:
Some Safety Measures:Pre-Operative Assessment: A thorough consultation and examination are conducted beforehand to assess the patient's health condition and suitability for the procedure.
Qualified Team: The procedure should be performed by a board-certified surgeon with experience in genital reconstructive surgery, supported by a skilled medical team.
Sterile Environment: A state-of-the-art, sterile surgical environment helps in reducing the risk of infection.
Anesthesia: A qualified anesthesiologist should be part of the team to ensure the patient's safety during the procedure.
Post-Operative Care: Proper aftercare is essential to minimize the risk of complications, and usually includes antibiotics to prevent infection and pain medication to manage discomfort.
The key to a safe and successful vaginoplasty procedure lies in choosing a qualified and experienced surgeon, understanding the risks and benefits, and adhering to pre and post-operative care instructions.
Always consult with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive understanding of the procedure tailored to your medical history and needs.

That’s a great question. There are risks involved with every surgery. That being said, Vaginoplasty is tolerated very well and with successful results. Providing you follow post op instructions, follow up with the doctor and allow your body time to heal, all things should go well. I recommend you see a trained cosmetic gynecological surgeon for a consultation.
Hope this helps!

Vaginoplasty is quite safe when done by a cosmetic gynecologist or a urogynecologist who has had the appropriate training and experience. In the appropriate hands, vaginoplasty is very safe and effective. The technique can be carried out as an outpatient procedure in an office-based procedure room and can be done under local anesthesia and the patient is awake and comfortable

Thank you for your questionVaginoplasty literally means plastic surgery of the vagina. It is not a specific procedure (though originally it meant the creation of a new vagina) and every surgeon has a different idea of what technique(s) comprises a vaginoplasty. There is no consensus on which surgical procedure(s) is performed. The safety depends the type and degree of problems, on which procedures are performed and the quality of the surgeon(s) that perform them. For example: 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 prolapsing or "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. Also, there can be defects on the entrance(orifice) and apex. These also must be evaluated and repaired. These procedures can be done safely by well trained surgeons but requires you to do your homework, looking at reviews and before and after photos and quality of the consult.

Vaginaplasty is very safe when done by a cosmetic surgeon or cosmetic gynecologist. As long as your surgeon is trained, there should be no issues. Just make sure to check the credentials of your chosen surgeon. Otherwise the procedure is completely safe and we even do ours under local anesthesia, meaning our patients are awake, comfortable and happy. I hope this helps.

Hello, it is a safe procedure with a very low complication rate and a very reliable procedure. If you need it, you can easily

Vajinoplasti, genellikle güvenli bir cerrahi prosedür olarak kabul edilir, ancak güvenlik, çeşitli faktörlere bağlıdır:
1. Deneyimli ve Uzman Bir Cerrah: Vajinoplasti yapacak cerrahın deneyimi, işlem sonuçlarını büyük ölçüde etkiler. Uzman bir cerrah, daha düşük komplikasyon riskiyle başarılı bir operasyon gerçekleştirebilir.
2. Sağlık Durumunuz: Genel sağlık durumunuz ve cerrahiye uygunluğunuz, işlemin güvenliğini etkileyebilir. Eğer ciddi kalp hastalıkları, diyabet veya kanama bozuklukları gibi sağlık sorunlarınız varsa, cerrahiden önce bunların değerlendirilmesi önemlidir.
3. İyileşme Süreci: Vajinoplasti sonrası iyileşme süreci hastadan hastaya farklılık gösterebilir. İyi bir iyileşme, komplikasyon riskini en aza indirir. Ancak, cerrahiden sonra birkaç hafta dinlenme ve dikkatli iyileşme gereklidir.
Sonuç olarak Vajinoplasti, genellikle güvenli bir cerrahi işlemdir, ancak her cerrahi müdahalede olduğu gibi, potansiyel riskler ve komplikasyonlar vardır. Cerrahiden önce doktorunuzla bu riskleri tartışmak ve iyileşme süreci hakkında bilgi almak, güvenli bir işlem yapılmasını sağlar. Ayrıca, işlemden önce cerrahınızın deneyimini araştırmak, güvenli bir operasyon için önemli bir adımdır.
