Genital Aesthetics interventions is the name given to the aesthetic methods used in the removal of later or congenital deformities in the genital area.

Aesthetic and functional correction of the vagina, inguinal region and vaginal lip disorders in women constitutes the field of aesthetic surgery.

Genital aesthetics includes many procedures such as removing excess fat, increasing the volume by filling or injecting additional fat, removing sagging, lightening the color, reducing the inner lips, and narrowing the vagina. Genital area aesthetics improves the genital muscles, narrows and reshapes the diameter of the vagina and restores it to its original state. While labiaplasty or perineoplasty is an aesthetic procedure for the external appearance of the vagina, Vaginoplasty is for the internal structure of the vagina.
Women generally have genital aesthetics because of the vaginal width they complain about and the sagging due to the size of the inner lips. By improving the aesthetic appearance of the genital area, the self-confidence of the woman is increased, and it is supported to enjoy sexual intercourse.
What is vaginal tightening (vaginoplasty) surgery?
The process of narrowing the vagina is called vaginoplasty. Vaginal tightening operations generally enlarge the vaginal wall for reasons such as uncontrolled episiotomy incisions, multiple births, aging and structural features of women who have given birth. Such disorders are not aesthetically pleasing and can cause problems in sexual intercourse.
What is Labiaplasty (Reduction of the Genital Inner Lips) surgery?
The shape, color and size of the labia minora vary according to race and age. Inner labia are usually not symmetrical as one is either larger or longer than the other. These can be structural as well as can develop later. Since the excess parts of the inner lips will sweat, it may give off a bad smell. Reshaping of the inner lips, which are aesthetically unsightly or cause pain during sexual intercourse, is called labiaplasty surgery.
What is hymen suturing (hymenoplasty)?
It is performed in cases where the structure we call the hymen is damaged as a result of women having sexual intercourse. This situation can cause very serious socio-psychological problems in our cultural society structure. So it is a sensitive issue. If this membrane is damaged beyond repair during the surgery, the membrane flap is reconstructed with the tissue shifting technique. If only the hymen is torn, suturing the membrane is sufficient. The surgery is performed under local anesthesia.
The patient is discharged on the day of the operation and the patient can continue her life without losing time from her work or social life. It is not painful after the operation and the patient can take a shower the next day. Until you have sexual intercourse again, there is no tearing.
What is pubis aesthetics?
It is a large area that includes the “Pubis” starting from the lower part of the abdomen and continuing to the groin, the outer and inner lips, that is, the “major and minor labium” and the vagina.
The biggest problem we encounter with the pubis is the sagging seen with the increase in the fat tissue and deterioration of the skin quality. This is a discomforting condition that appears as a swelling in the lower abdomen, especially when wearing trousers or swimsuits. The solution is liposuction and stretching and recovery surgeries to reduce the fat tissue here.
The swelling in the upper part of the female genital area (mons pubis) usually causes both sexual and social problems in patients with a high body mass index. Socially, undesirable bulging/sagging in clothes is the most common complaint. Thanks to the liposuction applied on the vulva, it is very easy to get rid of the swollen appearance.
How to repair postpartum tear scars?
During vaginal delivery, episiotomy can be applied, that is, some incisions can be made in order for the baby’s head to come out easily. In cases where these incisions are not repaired well, when bad suture technique is used, or when the vagina is torn spontaneously and uncontrollably without being prepared, ugly images may remain in the genital area. It is possible to get rid of this situation, which makes women seriously unhappy.
Scar tissues can be simply removed using local anesthesia, the tissues are compared in a straight line and sutured again. In the meantime, internal tissue loosening or sagging are also corrected. After vaginal aesthetics, the patient can return to her daily life immediately, but during the recovery period, sexual intercourse is prohibited for up to 6 weeks.
How are genital area fat filling applications done?

It manifests itself especially in the hairy and high area just below the groin called “mons pubis”. In the same way, thinning can be seen in the labium (lip parts) due to different reasons. In such cases, the external appearance can be corrected by injecting some fat tissue into these areas.
