Hymenoplasty
is the reconstruction of the hymen, resulting in the dissolution of any
evidence of trauma
The
Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute® puts the needs and concerns of its
patients first and foremost.
The
purpose of a Hymenoplasty is to repair and reconstruct the hymen, a thin
membrane that partially covers the opening to the vagina. The Hymen
typically tears during the first time a woman has sexual intercourse, and often
a small amount of bleeding occurs. Some women unknowingly tear the hymen
through activities such as tampon use, horseback riding, and other rigorous
sports. Some women break their hymen without realizing it.
The
desire to undergo a Hymenoplasty is often fueled by cultural, ethnic, or
religious motivation. Women who desire a more satisfactory sexual
experience may also opt for a Hymenoplasty, as it results in the tightening of
the vaginal walls.
Hymenoplasty
is completed in less than an hour, allowing the patient to resume normal,
non-strenuous activities within several days. Hymen restoration is
performed as an outpatient procedure, and can be done under local or I.V.
sedation. Consultations and gynecological exams are required prior to
surgery at LVR Denver. Patients are asked to describe the results they
are hoping for, as a result of the Hymenoplasty, at this time. Privacy is
respected.
