Vaginoplasty and Sexual Reassignment Surgery (SRS)
There are various reasons patients choose to undergo vaginoplasty. This surgical procedure has gained much popularity among mothers after having given birth vaginally, as well with women in general whose vaginal walls naturally weaken with age and are looking to re-establish sexual gratification.
Vaginoplasty refers to tightening the vaginal canal and tissues of its mucous membrane, resulting in strengthened muscles. The procedure also involves removing excess or damaged lining from the canal and decreasing the diameter of the vagina, increasing friction during intercourse and renewing sexual pleasure. With reasonably short recovery times, patients often report a major improvement in sexual sensation and pleasure. This procedure may also be referred to as vaginal rejuvenation.
Among the most principal considerations for vaginoplasty and Sexual Reassignment Surgery (SRS) are transgenders. This procedure is common among those looking to transform their genitalia from male to female, also knows as SRS or the creation of a neovagina. This is often the final stride in an individual’s transformation from male to female. SRS also generally refers to the remodelling of a male body into a female-looking body.
When performing male to female SRS, surgeons strive for results that meet the patients’ aesthetic, practical and desirable expectations. Patients aspire for their doctors and surgeons to not only help them meet their aesthetic aims, but to allow for them to functionally be able to experience sexual arousal, lubrication and orgasm again, with minimal scarring or absence of pain during intercourse after allowing sufficient time to heal post procedure.
There are documented reports of sexual satisfaction and achieved orgasm from patients who’ve undergone male to female vaginoplasty*, a major alleviation to those considering undergoing surgery who are anxious and apprehensive concerning healing, acclimation and long term affects and results.
A commonly practiced technique of neovaginal reconstruction in male to female SRS is penile skin inversion. This procedure yields favourable results that allow for adequate sensation, reasonable depth, re-established sexual arousal and sensitivity, as well the appearance of a patient’s aesthetically pleasing labia.
Women considering vaginoplasty and / or SRS are encouraged to talk openly with their doctors and surgeons about their feelings and concerns, as well as expectations for surgery and any possible non-surgical options.
