Explaining genital aesthetics, post-operative recovery period and pregnancy processes after genital aesthetics, Gynecology and Obstetrics Specialist Op. Dr. Deniz Çokay stated that the aim is to increase the feeling of an aesthetic external genital appearance and sexuality. Çokay emphasized that the person with increased self-confidence feels better.
Genital aesthetics and processes are among the most frequently encountered questions in society. Gynecology and Obstetrics Specialist Op. Dr. Deniz Çokay from Çamlıca Medipol University Hospital explained all the details of the process. Çokay stated that in genital aesthetics, labia majora (large lips) are full and not saggy or wrinkled, labia minora (small lips) are not saggy, an aesthetic shape, size and upright image is mentioned.
Who is genital aesthetics performed on
Stating that vaginal width and aesthetic concerns in the external genitalia bring along a lack of self-confidence, Çokay said, “It can be performed on patients who come with complaints of a feeling of width in the vagina, large size of the small lips, asymmetry, wrinkles, being visible from the clothes or causing discomfort by constantly rubbing against the clothes, and increased frequency of infection. In order to need aesthetic intervention in the genital area, the person does not necessarily have to have given birth or be of advanced age. The aim of these operations is to provide an aesthetic external genital appearance and sensation in sexuality, thus increasing pleasure, as well as increasing self-confidence and making the person feel good.”
Vaginoplasty-vagina tightening
Giving information about vaginal tightening, Çokay said, “Our patients come to us with a decrease in vaginal sensation during sexuality, a feeling of width, and the partner also feels similar symptoms. If the woman feels enlargement, there is indeed some relaxation. Of course, we cannot say that surgery is necessary for every woman with complaints. Apart from surgery, we have a few methods to narrow the vagina. Patients with slightly more enlargement, especially those who have given birth normally and have tissue damage and deformity in the perineal area with stitches or tear scars at the entrance of the vagina are more suitable for surgery. Vaginoplasty is a surgical procedure that takes about 40 minutes under local anesthesia under operating room conditions. Very thin and fast absorbing sutures are used during surgery. The stitches are aesthetic stitches, which are often applied with a technique that cannot be seen from the outside. The patient can be discharged on the same day.”
Labiaplasty - external lip aesthetics
Detailing the process of bringing the outer lip aesthetics to the correct asymmetry, Çokay said, “If there is sagging, wrinkled, dark skin tissue on the big lips, excess tissue is removed and aesthetic stitches are thrown by ensuring that they come to the folds. If there is a lot of volume loss, we inject the fat tissue taken from liposuction around the navel into the area to gain volume. We ensure that the asymmetrical, dark, large and sagging appearance of the small lips is aesthetic by correcting their shape with appropriate surgical incisions and making them the right size, shape and symmetrical. When aesthetizing the labia minora, it is often necessary to correct the skin fold covering the clitoris in order to make it look good as a whole. We often add hudoplasty to the procedure, “he said.
