Vaginal Aesthetics and Rejuvenation (Genital Aesthetics)

Modern gynecology concerns itself not only with treating diseases but also with functional solutions that improve women’s quality of life, self-confidence, and sexual health. Genital aesthetics and vaginal rejuvenation procedures aim to eliminate functional problems caused by tissue loss or deformation, going beyond purely aesthetic concerns. Prof. Dr. Selçuk Erkılınç offers his patients both medically and cosmetically satisfying results by combining surgical precision with an aesthetic perspective.

Why is Genital Aesthetics Preferred?

Structural changes in the vaginal area can develop due to difficult deliveries, aging, genetic factors, or rapid weight fluctuations. These conditions can cause the following problems in women:

• Loss of self-confidence and body image anxiety,

• Pain or loss of sensation during sexual intercourse,

• Physical discomfort when wearing tight clothing,

• Functional issues such as recurrent vaginal infections or urinary incontinence.

Genital Aesthetic Procedures with Prof. Dr. Selçuk Erkılınç

The operations performed at our clinic are fully personalized according to the patient’s anatomical structure and expectations.

1. Labiaplasty (Inner Labia Aesthetics)

This is a surgical procedure performed when the inner lips (labia minora) of the genital area are larger than normal, sagging, or asymmetrical. In this operation, Dr. Erkılınç preserves the nerve endings of the tissues to ensure both an aesthetic appearance and enhanced functional comfort.

2. Vaginoplasty (Vaginal Tightening)

This is the surgical tightening of the vagina and its supporting tissues, which have expanded as a result of childbirth or tissue laxity. This operation provides not only an aesthetic improvement but also helps increase sexual gratification.

3. Perineoplasty (Episiotomy Scar Revision)

This is the correction of poorly healed, unsightly scars and indentations in the region between the vaginal opening and the anus (perineum) resulting from incisions made during childbirth (episiotomy).

4. Clitoral Hoodoplasty (Clitoral Hood Aesthetics)

This is a procedure that removes excess skin folds over the clitoris to achieve a more aesthetic appearance in this area and optimize sexual excitability. It is usually performed in combination with labiaplasty.

What to Know About the Surgical and Recovery Process

Genital aesthetic operations require meticulous surgical technique and a professional approach that respects the patient’s privacy.

1. The Operation Process and Anesthesia

Procedures are generally performed in a hospital setting under short-term general anesthesia or local anesthesia. The duration of the operation varies between 45 and 90 minutes depending on the scope of the procedure.

2. Recovery and Return to Social Life

Since minimally invasive techniques and self-absorbing sutures are utilized, there is no need for suture removal. Patients can typically return to their daily routines one day after the operation. The complete recovery and return to sexual life takes approximately 4 to 6 weeks.

3. Expertise and Aesthetic Perspective

The genital area has an anatomy that is highly rich in terms of vascular and nerve networks. Therefore, it is critical that the operation is performed by a gynecologist to protect tissue health and function. Bringing tissue management experience from oncological surgery, Prof. Dr. Selçuk Erkılınç minimizes the risk of complications and achieves natural, functional results.
