Cosmetic gynecological procedures are a popular decision for women in Cleveland who are looking to tighten the vaginal canal. But which one is the best option for you? Vaginal tightening is a surgical procedure specifically designed to reconstruct and tighten the vaginal canal. Tightening the vagina improves sensation during intercourse and can make for a better sexual experience for both the women and her partner. Restore your confidence, improve your vaginal and overall pelvic health by tightening your pelvic floor.
Vaginal tightening surgically brings together separated muscles to tighten the vagina and resolve accompanying side effects such as frequent urination, difficulty with tampons, or pain during intercourse from weakened vaginal muscles. Sometimes this procedure is miscommunicated as a vaginoplasty, which is a surgical procedure that reconstructs a male penis into a vagina. Since it is an invasive procedure, there are risks, side effects, and recovery time to consider before choosing to undergo a vaginal tightening surgery in Cleveland. To determine if you are a good candidate for this procedure, speak with our excellent Ob/Gyn at one of our offices located in Beachwood, Westlake, or Middlefield.
Vaginal tightening surgery, usually referred to in medical terminology as Anterior/Posterior Colporapphy, is a surgical operation that aims to tighten the vaginal canal by altering the muscles to a predetermined amount of tightness. The surgery brings separated vaginal muscles together in layers by shortening them with strong sutures and removing extra skin inside the vagina.
The most significant benefit of an A/P Colporapphy is a tighter vaginal canal, which could result in greater sensations and more sexual satisfaction. This procedure could also restore friction within the vaginal canal to enhance pleasurable sensation during intercourse. In addition, it resolves several sexual health issues caused by vaginal stretching such as after childbirth.
Recovery after vaginal tightening surgery typically takes one week before an individual may resume their usual activities. Resumption of sexual intercourse and tampon use may occur between four to eight weeks of recovery, depending on individual healing.
You may also be interested in vaginal rejuvenation, a non-surgical procedure for vaginal tightening.
The most common reason for undergoing vaginal tightening surgery is to reverse the widening of the vaginal canal caused by childbirth or aging. Vaginal canal widening could lead to difficulties with tampons staying in place, painful intercourse, urinary incontinence, gas-like noises during intercourse, and bowel movement.
The ideal candidate for vaginal tightening surgery, or A/P colporapphy, in Cleveland is a woman who is not pregnant or planning to become pregnant, as childbirth may reverse the surgical changes by stretching vaginal muscles. If you feel loser than normal and aren’t having as much pleasure during intercourse you could benefit from this procedure.
Have you received a vaginal tightening, or A/P colporapphy procedure before from a different surgeon, but it didn’t last? There are several causes for your failed vaginal tightening surgery. If you received vaginal tightening before, but now need another one, the cause might be that the first time you had the procedure it was incomplete. Perhaps your first vaginal tightening only tightened the outside of your vagina (fixing the symptoms) instead of targeting the root cause of your concerns (the internal canal). Proper vaginal tightening surgeries are done to tighten not only the external opening of the vagina, but the entire internal vaginal canal as well. Some surgeons might only tighten the outside of your vagina. But what makes Advanced Women’s Health and Surgery different is that Dr. Gitiforooz not only tightens the outside of your vagina, but the internal vaginal canal as well. Concurrently tightening the internal and external structures results in increased comfort and pleasure for both the man and the woman. Additionally, a vaginoplasty can help treat prolapse and bladder leakage as well.
A vaginal tightening surgery, or A/P colporapphy, is a procedure performed to tighten the internal and external vaginal canals in layers, while a perineoplasty tightens and reshapes the perineum. The perineum includes the muscles around the vagina that help keep it tight. Check out this page to learn more about perineoplasties. Dr. Gitiforooz usually performs vaginal tightening and a perineoplasty together depending on the patient’s needs, for optimal results and gynecological health.
There are several actions that a patient should take prior to receiving a vaginal tightening surgery in Cleveland. This is why is it important to consult with a gynecologist you can trust. To confirm if you are a candidate to receive this procedure, schedule a consultation with our caring gynecologist, Dr. Habibeh Gitiforooz, MD, FACOG. When examining the vaginal area, Dr Gitiforooz will determine whether the muscles are loose enough to require surgical vaginal tightening. It may be determined that you are a better candidate for the vaginal rejuvenation procedure. When this inspection is complete, our gynecologist may also need to analyze your medical history for confirmation that you have not had any past experiences that may affect the surgery.
Recovery after vaginal tightening surgery typically takes one week before an individual may resume their usual activities. Resumption of sexual intercourse and tampon use may occur between four to eight weeks of recovery, depending on individual healing.
