Recovery Tips Post Vaginoplasty Surgery

There are a few tips that may help for faster recovery duration post vaginoplasty:

• Do not use tampons, but only soft absorbing menstrual pads for your next cycle post surgery.
• Your site would still be critical and sensitive for around 6-8 weeks post-surgery. Therefore, avoid sex/ anything penetrative in nature for a period of at least 1.5-2 months.
• Do not use perfume/ scented lotions/ soaps/ vaginal washes around your vaginal area until the complete healing. It could disturb your Ph balance and induce unwanted infections.
• Do not go for a swim or extended showers. It could foster bacteria and induce infections.
• Do not engage in low/high-intensity physical exercises. In fact, do not bend or overexert yourself at all. It could open up the stitches and induce bleeding and hematoma(collection of blood around the wound).
• Eat well-balanced and less spicy food. Include a lot of fluid intake including milk and fresh fruits
• Complete the full course of your medicines and follow your doctor’s instructions very carefully. Vaginoplasty post-care is extremely critical and negligence can bring serious complications.

What is better – Vaginoplasty, Labiaplasty, or Vulvoplasty?

While all three surgeries- vaginoplasty, labiaplasty, and vulvoplasty are plastic surgeries of the vagina, they all vary in functions.

• Vaginoplasty is a surgery focused at repairing the entire vaginal site. It helps restore both- the urinary and sexual functions of the organ, while also redefining the aesthetics. As a result, it helps tighten, shape, smoothen, and rejuvenate the entire vaginal area, thus solving vaginal looseness, dryness, and urinary leakage.
• Labiaplasty is a surgery to reshape only the inner or outer labia. It is mainly done to solve the constant chafing, rashes, and pain around the labial region.
• Vulvoplasty is a surgery focused on repairing only the vulvar region. It thus shapes and repairs only the outer vaginal area, thus helping enhance sexual sensation, function, and sensitivity.

Since all three are different surgeries, performed for different needs and functions, which open is better for you depends entirely on your exact health condition, personal needs, and expectations. Therefore it is best you discuss this directly with a doctor and let you both decide this post a detailed understanding of your symptoms and physical examination.
