What is Genital Aesthetics?

Genital aesthetics is the general name given to correction procedures performed on the genitals of women, both in terms of appearance and comfort. That is, it is done not only for “beauty”, but also to correct situations that sometimes cause discomfort. The body structure of each woman is different. Some women may experience sagging, size, or deformity of the genital area due to congenital or birth, age. These conditions can cause discomfort in everyday life, create restlessness in tight clothing, cause friction when playing sports or negatively affect sex life.

What are the most frequent operations?

  • Inner lip reduction (labioplasty): Reduction of large or sagging inner lips
  • External lip filler: Plumping of outer lips that lose volume over time
  • Vaginal narrowing (vaginoplasty): Can be applied in postpartum relaxations
  • Discoloration (genital whitening): Actions to reduce darkening in the area

Process Process and Recovery

It depends on the procedure to be performed, but most procedures can be done with local anesthesia (just anesthetizing that area). In some cases, general anesthesia may also be preferred. The duration of the procedure usually varies from 30 minutes to 1-2 hours. During the procedure, pain is not felt. There may be a slight tenderness afterwards, but it usually goes away in a short time.

The recovery time depends on the procedure performed. Many people can return to their daily lives in a few days. Full recovery, on the other hand, can take several weeks. Compliance with the recommendations of the doctor is very important in this process.

Who Can Make It?

Every healthy woman who has reached the age of 18 can have genital aesthetics. But it is imperative to consult a specialist doctor.

Why is it so preferred?

In recent years, women are becoming more interested in these procedures both to feel better and to improve their quality of life. It is not a situation to be ashamed of, but a purely personal preference. Genital aesthetics are procedures aimed at improving both appearance and comfort. It can help the woman feel more comfortable and confident.
