Before undergoing the procedure, the patient will be put under general anaesthesia, which means they will be asleep and pain-free during the surgery.
During the vaginoplasty, the surgeon will make an incision in the vaginal area, allowing them to access the damaged muscles and tissue. Then they will repair and tighten the damaged vaginal muscles and tissues. This is typically done by removing excess skin or tissue, then suturing the vaginal walls together to create a tighter vaginal canal. If necessary, the surgeon may also repair the perineum during the procedure.
After the repair, the incision will be closed with either sutures or skin glue. A sterile dressing will be applied to protect the site from any infections and help heal how the desired outcomes are achieved.
The procedure’s time depends on the damage’s extent and complexity, but it usually takes one to two hours to complete. Also, remember that the procedure results will depend on the severity of the damage, the patient’s overall health, and experience.
