VAGINOPLASTY
IN NEW YORK CITY

We understand the unique and highly intimate issues women face as their bodies undergo changes during and after major life events such as pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause. Having one or more children can result in an uncomfortably loose vagina, which can lead to decreased sexual pleasure, self-confidence issues, and even difficulty using a tampon. At New Look New Life,(https://www.newlooknewlife.com/) our dedicated team, led by Dr. Claudia Kim,(https://www.google.com/search?q=https://www.newlooknewlife.com/dr-claudia-kim) provides a safe, comfortable, and discreet environment to help you look and feel your absolute best at every stage of life.

A vaginoplasty is a procedure that surgically tightens the vaginal canal. During a vaginoplasty, Dr. Claudia Kim removes excess skin and carefully stitches back together loose muscles that have been stretched out. A vaginoplasty specifically focuses on the internal vaginal canal and does not involve the external labia; however, many women choose to reduce the size of their labia by combining this surgery with a Labiaplasty.(https://www.newlooknewlife.com/labiaplasty) If you only have mild laxity of the vaginal canal, you may also be a candidate for a non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation treatment. We can help determine which procedure would best benefit you during your private consultation.

The best candidates for a vaginoplasty are women who: • Experience significant vaginal laxity • Are finished having children • Understand the risks and recovery process • Are in good general health • Do not smoke (Smoking greatly increases the risk of complications during surgery and healing, so you must quit for a few weeks before and after surgery). While you can physically still have children after undergoing a vaginoplasty, doing so will very likely stretch the tissues again and compromise your surgical results. This is why we highly recommend waiting until you are finished building your family before undergoing this procedure.

Vaginoplasty recovery is very similar to recovering from an episiotomy performed during a vaginal birth. You will experience some pain, swelling, and tenderness that can be effectively managed with prescription pain medications. Typically, patients can comfortably return to an office or desk job within 3 to 5 days. If your job requires strenuous labor or heavy lifting, you will want to wait a bit longer.

During your recovery, you should closely follow Dr. Claudia Kim's post-operative instructions, attend all of your scheduled checkups, and call us if you have any questions or concerns. You must refrain from any sexual activity for at least 6 weeks to allow the delicate muscles to heal. You will also not be able to use a tampon, menstrual cup, or anything that needs to be inserted into the vagina during this same 6-week period.

Absolutely.
