Vagina Surgery - #7284
I’ve heard of different types of vagina surgery, but I don’t fully understand when or why someone would need it. Is vagina surgery always cosmetic, or are there medical reasons for undergoing these procedures? From what I read, vagina surgery includes procedures like vaginoplasty (vaginal tightening), labiaplasty (reshaping the labia), and even reconstructive surgeries after childbirth or injury. But what are the most common reasons for getting vagina surgery—is it mainly for aesthetic concerns, or do some women need it for medical conditions like pelvic organ prolapse? I also saw that some vagina surgeries are done to improve sexual function or to repair damage from childbirth. But how effective are these procedures? If someone undergoes vaginoplasty, does it actually improve tightness, or is the outcome mainly psychological? Does it affect sensitivity in a positive or negative way? Another thing I’m wondering about is the recovery process. How long does it take to heal after vagina surgery, and are there risks like scarring, infections, or loss of sensation? Are these surgeries typically done under local or general anesthesia, and do they require a long hospital stay? For those who have undergone vagina surgery, what was your experience like? Did it achieve the desired results, and was the recovery difficult? I just want to understand more about vagina surgery, when it’s necessary, and whether it’s safe and effective.
