What is Genital Aesthetics?

What is genital aesthetics, which has a very special place among aesthetic applications? The answer to this question is still among the most sought after. Turkish women who cannot face their own bodies due to social pressures have many questions about genital aesthetic procedures. Genital aesthetics covers a range of surgical and non-surgical procedures performed on the vulva (external genitalia) and vagina (birth canal).

What are the Most Common Genital Aesthetic Procedures?Labiaplasty (inner lip aesthetics) and vaginoplasty (vaginal tightening surgery) are the most common genital plastic surgeries. In non-surgical applications, there are laser vaginal tightening and laser genital area color lightening treatments. In addition to these procedures, genital PRP, genital mesotherapy and genital filler applications have been increasing rapidly in recent years to emphasize regenerative and anti-aging effects.

What are Surgical Methods in Genital Aesthetics?Laparoplasty

It is the most preferred operation among genital plastic surgeries. Labioplasty means ‘lip aesthetics’, ‘inner lip aesthetics’, in other words ‘labia minora plasty’. It is an operation to correct sagging and asymmetry in the inner lips by cutting and shortening.

Today, it is considered more appropriate to perform aesthetic surgery around the clitoris, i.e. ‘cliterohudoplasty’, together with labiaplasty, which is frequently performed aesthetic surgery. In this way, the micro penis appearance that commonly occurs after labiaplasty is prevented.

In addition to labiaplasty, large lip filling is also performed with the ‘barbie vagina concept’. With fat fillers or hyaluronic acid fillers applied to the labia majora, it is aimed to achieve a single line appearance in the middle line in the genital area, that is, the venus cleft.

Vaginoplasty
Vaginal tightening operations are the second most common procedures among genital plastic surgeries. These surgeries, called ‘vaginoplasty’ or in Latin ‘colpography posterior’, provide permanent vaginal tightening surgically.

Vaginoplasty is generally preferred for women who have had interventions such as normal delivery, miscarriage and curettage. In addition, factors such as advancing age, poor diet, smoking and collagen loss also lead to vaginal enlargement. It is recommended for patients who want permanent vaginal tightening.

Perineoplasty
The perineum is the skin between the vagina and the anal area (anus). Damage occurs in this area especially after normal delivery with episiotomy (stitched). Surgical correction of the perineum is called ‘perineoplasty’. This operation is especially performed in conjunction with vaginoplasty to correct the birth stitch scars and to clean the skin folds in that area.

Labiomajoraplasty
Labia majora means ‘outer lip, big lip’. Surgical reduction of the labia minora is called ‘labiomajoraplasty’. Generally, when labiaplasty is mentioned, inner lip surgery comes to mind. For this reason, complaints of sagging, looseness and discoloration of the labia majora are also evaluated.

Genital Area Fat Fillers
When genital aesthetic surgeries are performed in combination, the effect increases and the results are satisfactory. Especially as the ‘barbie vagina concept’ becomes widespread, fat filling surgeries on large lips are also increasing. Generally, fat is taken from the abdomen and injected into the labia majora after certain procedures. Since it is the body’s own tissue, its permanence is higher than hyaluronic acid fillers.

What are the Non-Surgical Methods in Genital Aesthetics?Non-surgical procedures in genital aesthetics are developing rapidly. Especially with the rapidly developing technology in the last 20 years, we perform many procedures painlessly, painlessly and without anesthesia in the clinical environment.

These procedures, which are applied as an alternative to surgery or simultaneously with the operation, are the most commonly used ones;

1. Laser vaginal rejuvenation (laser vaginal tightening): Vaginal rejuvenation is a new term in genital aesthetic applications. It is also known as vaginal rejuvenation or vaginal rejuvenation treatments. Non-surgical vaginal tightening treatment is possible with a laser device based on heat energy. These are painless procedures performed without anesthesia in 3-5 minutes without interfering with daily life. This procedure, which has long-term patient satisfaction, can be applied in intermittent repeated sessions.
2. Laser genital bleaching treatments (Genital bleaching): A common problem in all women is darkening of the genital area. Most women complain of discoloration, especially after hormonal disorders, rapid weight gain and loss, and exposure to hot waxing and epilation. Laser genital area lightening treatments are short-term procedures that can be applied in a clinical setting, 10 minutes after applying local anesthetic cream. Depending on the degree of discoloration, several monthly sessions may be required.
3. Genital radiofrequency applications: An energy-based treatment for vaginal rejuvenation and tightening is genital radiofrequency. Radiofrequency treatments provide long-term tightening and rejuvenation in the vagina with applications lasting 4-6 sessions. The most important advantage of the painless and comfortable procedure is that there is no restriction on sexual intercourse.
4. Genital PRP (Platelet rich plasma): PRP (platelet-rich plasma) procedure is widely used in genital aesthetic applications. Especially when performed simultaneously with surgery, it accelerates wound healing and reduces scar formation.

Genital PRP generally gives satisfactory results in women with complaints such as sexual pleasure problems, inability to orgasm, vaginal dryness. The application with the registered name ‘O-SHOT’, also known as orgasm vaccine, is a kind of genital PRP.

5. Genital area lightening and anti-aging mesotherapy applications: The genital area also ages, darkens and loses skin quality as a result of age and exposure to external factors. Especially in large area discoloration treatments, genital area decolorizing chemical peeling and mesotherapy applications are performed. Mesotherapy injections provide skin rejuvenation and lightening in color.
6. Genital area filling applications: Genital area filling applications are performed for both regeneration and volumizing. It is performed in a short time in a clinical setting and under local anesthesia. It provides a pleasing appearance when applied in the presence of wrinkles, collapse and weakness in large lips. In case of lack of sexual pleasure and orgasm problems, G-spot fillers known as ‘G-SHOT’ are applied.
