The conditions treated by vaginoplasty surgery range from acquired medical conditions like vaginal laxity and trauma (often resulting from vaginal childbirth and natural aging processes) to congenital vaginal defects. Common Reasons for Considering Vaginoplasty Surgery Urinary incontinence - When a baby travels through the birth canal and out of the vagina it can cause some serious issues to a woman’s bladder, one of those being urinary incontinence. During vaginal births, muscles are often stretched out and unable to bounce back. In addition, the event can stress the pelvic area. Those weakened muscles can then make it difficult to control the bladder, thus urine may involuntarily leak. For some women, a sneeze, laugh or cough will provoke the bladder and pee will leak out. Or they can’t hold it very long once the urge strikes. Some urinary incontinence conditions can be solved using less invasive procedures such as a bladder sling. Better sex life - Remember when sex was filled with sensation and excitement? When every touch down there felt electric and you could climax? There’s no denying that it’s difficult to enjoy sex when the vaginal muscles are lax and the opening is loose. Orgasm may be a distant memory or a rare occurrence these days. For women dealing with a less-than-ideal sex life due to weakened vaginal muscles, a vagina tightening surgery is a great option. Tightening it up - Some women may not be happy with the appearance of their vagina. Whether it’s from childbirth, age or genetics, these women may choose to undergo a vaginoplasty, specifically, labiaplasty, to reshape their vaginal “lips” or labia minora.

Chin augmentation procedures, which are popular with both men and women, are done to make the chin look more proportionate in relation to the rest of the face. A weak or receding chin can make the nose look bigger than it really is, therefore a stronger chin and jawline could be used to compensate for that. A receding chin also makes the boundary between the neck and the chin seem less clear-cut, so the client’s neck often looks thicker and fleshier, so chin augmentation can make the neck look thinner. It can also give the client a stronger and more defined jawline and make jowls less prominent, especially in an older patient. While chin augmentation is usually cosmetic, it can also be part of reconstructive surgery. Patients who have suffered a serious injury to their face may be candidates for chin augmentation. When performed by a qualified, experienced cosmetic surgeon, chin enhancement can provide a permanent solution to improve a weak or recessed chin.
