Consumer interest in “vaginal rejuvenation” – a term that covers several different types of cosmetic vaginal procedures – to reverse the impacts of childbirth, menopause, and other life events has continued to grow over the last few years as new treatments and products have become available. That enthusiasm has shown up in research conducted by RealSelf, a laser industry group that tracks consumer interest trends in the industry.
According to the group’s research, interest in vaginal rejuvenation has increased 17 percent over the last year, making it one of the fastest-growing areas of interest in cosmetic surgery. Unsurprisingly, vaginal rejuvenation has become popular with members of Hollywood, who have not only had the procedures performed but have openly raved about the results in both the press and on their own shows.
“At Greenwich Gynecology & Wellness, we are experienced in several different vaginal rejuvenation procedures, including labiaplasty, vaginoplasty, and clitoral hood reduction,” said Dr. Edward Jacobson, one of the practice’s most experienced vaginal rejuvenation surgeons and Board Certified gynecologist and a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Gynecologists.
Vaginal rejuvenation has many benefits. It can provide increased comfort for women who have enlarged labia that become sore or irritated during exercise or other strenuous activity. It can provide a boost to a woman’s self-confidence by making her more comfortable in tight-fitting clothing or bathing suits. Finally, it can benefit a woman by improving her sex life. Vaginal rejuvenation has been shown to not only tighten the vagina itself, but clitoral hood reduction can increase sexual climax and reduce a woman’s difficulty in achieving orgasm.
As RealSelf’s research shows, not only are these procedures growing in popularity, but so is interest in newer technologies, including the use of high-energy lasers. With so many options available today, it is incredibly important that an individual consult with an experienced cosmetic surgeon to review the pros and cons of each type of procedure. Greenwich Gynecology and Wellness’s doctors have over 45 years of combined cosmetic surgery experience, and work to educate their patients on the procedures being considered.
Vaginal rejuvenation can be life-altering for some women, but don’t make a decision about the best procedure for you based on the statements of Hollywood stars. Consult with an experienced vaginal rejuvenation surgeon to fully understand which option is best.
