The topic of female genital aesthetics is increasingly discussed by both patients and doctors today. In cases of vaginal lacerations occurring after childbirth, congenital deformities in the size and shape of the labia majora and minora, as well as individuals experiencing sexual issues due to these conditions, and situations involving atrophy caused by aging or weight loss, plastic surgery offers assistance. Procedures in this area include treatments for the labia majora, labia minora, hood area, pubis, vagina, and vaginal orifice (hymen).

Symmetry is important for the external genital area to appear aesthetically pleasing and proportionate. In genital aesthetic surgery, lifting procedures are performed to ensure symmetry and maintain a youthful and natural appearance. Loss of sensation is not typically reported by those who have undergone the surgery.
In literature, the area known as Venus Hill is referred to as Mons Pubis in medical terms. It is a region rich in adipose tissue and hair, located at the front of the vulva. When this area is overly prominent, it can cause clothing-related issues for women. Additionally, due to weight fluctuations, sagging and folds may occur. In cases where prominence increases, liposuction techniques are used to reduce the area. For patients with sagging and folds, monsplasty is performed using lifting and reduction methods. These approaches help patients feel more comfortable and confident in social settings.
The most commonly preferred genital aesthetic surgery by women is labioplasty performed on the labia minora. Large and irregularly shaped labia minora that hang between the labia majora can cause issues during sexual intercourse. Pain during sexual relations is often reported as the biggest complaint by patients. Labia minora are reduced using various excision techniques. They are aesthetically and functionally repaired by plastic surgeons using the most suitable flap techniques for the patient.
Aesthetic procedures are performed on the labia majora for cosmetic reasons.
- Labia majora can be large due to weight gain or hormonal changes during puberty. In such cases, partial excisions are planned according to the anatomy, and labioplasty is used to reduce the size of the labia majora. Additionally, liposuction treatments can be applied either alone or in combination.
- In cases of volume loss in the labia majora due to weight loss or a decrease in estrogen levels during menopause, fat grafting is used to restore the lost volume. For patients with sagging effects due to volume loss, combined lifting surgeries can be performed.
This type of labia majora aesthetic surgery is carried out using techniques developed and refined by plastic surgeons over many years.
The aesthetic procedure performed for oversized and sagging extensions of the labia minora that cover the clitoris is called Hoodectomy or Hoodoplasty. It is typically combined with labioplasty surgeries. This combined procedure is referred to as Labiohoodoplasty or Hoodolabioplasty.
Hymenoplasty is the procedure in which the hymen is repaired to its original anatomical structure. The hymen forms a partial barrier between the external environment and the vagina, located near the vaginal opening. It is thin and flexible and can have various shapes. Clients often request the repair of a hymen that has been damaged for various reasons. Once existing lacerations are identified, the original anatomy of the hymen is restored.
Vaginoplasty, often overlooked and rarely mentioned by patients, is a vaginal tightening surgery. For a fulfilling sexual relationship, where both partners experience satisfying pleasure, vaginoplasty is necessary for some clients. This procedure is typically required after vaginal tears and widening that occur following normal childbirth. In such cases, repair should not be limited to just the vaginal opening. Scars extending into the inner vaginal area should be addressed, and tightening should be performed internally. By restoring the normal anatomy, a successful and happy sexual life can be ensured for patients.
The question "Who is genital aesthetic surgery for?" is an important one often asked by individuals. Genital aesthetic procedures can be performed on any individual who is 18 years or older. Marital status is not a factor for undergoing genital aesthetic surgery.
