A loose vagina, painful sex, and incontinence are all symptoms that can be corrected with vaginal rejuvenation (VR). Vaginal rejuvenation is recognized as a medically necessary procedure that improves overall vaginal health, including a loose vagina. Women are unanimously finding that it not only improves their health, but it is empowering and boosts confidence.

5 Facts About Vaginal Rejuvenation

1. Tightening a loose vagina isn’t always just about better sex.

There are more reasons women undergo vaginal rejuvenation other than sex. These reasons have to do with the vaginal structure causing functional issues such as trouble holding tampons, visible scar tissue surrounding the vagina, problems passing bowel movements, or experiencing discomfort during exercise or other light activities.

2. There is more than one type of vaginal rejuvenation procedure.

Vaginoplasty is the most common vaginal rejuvenation procedure, treating vaginal relaxation, a common condition with childbirth and aging. Vaginoplasty tightens the inner and outer muscles and structures of the vagina to enhance vaginal muscle tone, strength, and control. With relaxation, pelvic organ prolapse can also be present and cause discomfort, pain, and/or incontinence.

Labiaplasty is another common type of vaginal rejuvenation, often done due to discomfort of enlarged labia. A few other types of procedures are clitoral hood reduction and perineoplasty. These procedures are often necessary due to bulging, discomfort, or pain. Hymen repair (hymenoplasty) is another type of vaginal rejuvenation procedure, performed mostly for personal reasons.

3. Yes, it’s true, sex will be much better! 

Because vaginal rejuvenation repairs a loose vagina by tightening the vaginal canal, friction is increased during intercourse and causes greater stimulation and pleasure during sex. Studies show that 94% of vaginal rejuvenation patients experience an improvement in their sexual life after surgery. It is not only the vaginal structure that improves patients’ sexual lives, but the improvement in the aesthetic appearance enhances their self-confidence, resulting in increased sex drive.

4. You should have vaginal rejuvenation performed by a urogynecologist. 

A surgeon who specializes in the field of advanced female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery (FPMRS) is ideal to perform vaginal rejuvenation. Female Pelvic Medicine and Reproductive Surgeons have received advanced training and certification in addition to their training in obstetrics and gynecology. Patients should seek out a specialist who has performed hundreds of surgical vaginal rejuvenation procedures and is intimately familiar with the pelvic anatomy, patient preferences, and the most up-to-date techniques. For optimal surgical results, seek a qualified and experienced urogynecologist to perform your surgery.

5. Vaginal rejuvenation provides long lasting results.   

Unless another vaginal childbirth occurs, patients have positive results for the rest of their lives. Though it’s normal that all parts of the body relax slightly as we age, the vaginal area should never return to the degree of relaxation experienced prior to surgery.

Our doctors tailor vaginal rejuvenation treatment plans to each patient’s unique needs. Pricing can vary if you need more extensive work. This is especially true if you’ve had multiple vaginal deliveries, have pelvic organ prolapse, or incontinence. After a consultation, you can get a better idea of costs and what treatment plan is best for you.
