What is Vaginoplasty?
Surgical vaginal tightening, vaginal rejuvenation, cosmetic vaginoplasty and reconstructive vaginoplasty are all terms that are commonly used when referring to vaginoplasty. During the procedure, Dr. Reed surgically revises the muscles of the vagina, the lining of the vaginal canal, and the tissues of the perineum.
Childbirth, ageing, genetics, and various medical conditions and lifestyle factors can cause vaginal laxity and a loss of muscle tone. Many women seek to tighten their vaginal muscles to regain and improve vaginal sensation during intimacy.
The modern vaginoplasty surgical technique tightens the vagina, soft tissue and surrounding muscles, improving vaginal function and sensation. Often, vaginoplasty is combined with minimally-invasive laser and radiofrequency treatments. Other benefits of vaginoplasty include improved muscular control, increased tightness, and reduced urinary incontinence.
By performing vaginoplasty alongside a labiaplasty, women can address cosmetic and functional changes simultaneously. Both procedures do not require hospitalization.
Patients are encouraged to book a free consultation with Dr. Reed to determine if vaginoplasty is a suitable solution for their specific concerns.
Who is an Ideal Candidate for Vaginoplasty?
Postpartum changes, menopause, weight gain and loss, and chronic increases in abdominal pressure can all cause the vaginal floor to lose its tone. This is commonly experienced as a feeling of laxity, or lack of tightness, within the vagina. A woman may become aware that she has trouble contracting the levator ani muscles (Kegel muscles), and seek vaginoplasty to restore muscular control, tightness, and sensation.
Decreased sensation during intercourse is often due a reduction in blood flow to the vaginal lining as well as the presence of built-up scar tissue which impairs the ability of the vaginal lining to perceive pleasure and sensation.
Kegel exercises are often among the first recommendations offered by gynecologists to their patients to strengthen the pelvic floor. When Kegel exercises do not produce satisfactory results within 6-12 months however, surgical intervention may be required. Consult with an experienced vaginoplasty surgeon like Dr. Reed to learn more about vaginoplasty and how it can help your individual situation.

How is Vaginoplasty Performed?
Vaginoplasty is the removal of the superfluous vaginal lining (or mucosa) and the tightening/stitching of connective tissue between the recto-vaginal fascia and levator ani muscles.
An effective vaginoplasty includes more than merely tightening the vaginal opening. On average, it involves tightening the inner 60-70% of the vagina’s length from the vaginal orifice.
During vaginoplasty, the vaginal opening is functionally and aesthetically improved by repairing and tightening the perineum. This procedure is called perineoplasty. However, it is important to note that a perineoplasty alone will not result in a tighter vagina and will not meet the average woman’s expectations of tightening from the procedure. The internal element of tightening involves the repositioning of the levator ani and transverse perineal muscles toward the midline during vaginoplasty.
How to Choose Your Vaginoplasty Surgeon for the Most Optimal Results
The key to a successful vaginal tightening surgery is selecting an experienced surgeon who specializes in vaginoplasty and who has a track record of success. The surgeon should be well-versed in both vaginal reconstructive techniques and supplementary non-surgical laser therapy modalities. The surgeon should have performed several identical surgeries and be able to explain to the patient the success of their case studies.
Dr. Michael Reed has conducted over a thousand successful vaginoplasty surgeries and has a track record of extremely high patient satisfaction.

What Causes Vaginal Laxity and Reduction in Muscle Tone?
The dysfunction of the muscles of the pelvic floor (levator ani or kegel muscles), vaginal prolapse, cystocele, rectocele and dysfuction of the lining of the vaginal epithelium can all contribute to vaginal laxity. Patients often complain of decreased enjoyment during sexual activity when experiencing symptoms of vaginal laxity.
Vaginoplasty Increases Friction for Better Sensation and Improves Vaginal Tone
By approximating (stitching together) the levator ani muscles, vaginoplasty aims to enhance vaginal tone from within. By reducing scar tissue of the vaginal lining (which can result from vaginal birth trauma/injury), blood flow is restored to the vaginal lining, thereby increasing sensation and pleasure during intercourse. After vaginoplasty, a woman may also enjoy enhanced lubrication.
Vaginoplasty is frequently performed alongside additional complementary procedures and treatments designed to achieve remarkable results as part of a comprehensive vaginal rejuvenation package. Moreover, laser or radiofrequency technologies are very beneficial when employed during the vaginoplasty surgery for added tightness and lubrication. For more intense g-spot and clitoral sensation, the O-Shot® is available.
Vaginoplasty Surgery Offers the Following Benefits:
- Increased muscular strength and control
- Greater friction for heightened sensation and sexual response
- Improved aesthetic appearance of the vagina
- Increased sexual confidence and renewed self-esteem

Complementary Procedures
Cystocele or rectocele (prolapse of the bladder or rectum) can also be treated non-surgically with vaginal laser rejuvenation (FemiLift or CO2RE Intima). The treatments can also be very effective for addressing issues of urinary leakage or incontinence.
During your visit, Dr. Reed will determine if this treatment option is appropriate for you.
Labiaplasty Surgery
A labiaplasty procedure is performed to treat labial hypertrophy or elongated labia minora. Labiaplasty provides patients suffering with protruding labia relief from friction and chafing that can result from exercise and sexual activity, while significantly improving the aesthetic appearance of the vaginal area.

Perineal Scar Revision
It is common for women to experience significant tearing of the perineum or to require episiotomy during childbirth. Damage of the tissue can vary in severity. If the tearing or the incision does not heal well, it can give rise to painful scarring and an unwanted aesthetic appearance. Our expert plastic surgeon performs Perineal Scar Revision Surgery to restore the appearance and functionality to the perineum.
