The Intervention
Clitoroplasty is usually performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia and involves several steps:
- Consultation and planning: In a detailed consultation, your individual wishes and needs are discussed, and a customized treatment plan is created.
- Incision: Precise incisions are made to allow access to the vaginal structures.
- Reconstruction and tightening: The vaginal walls are reconstructed, excess tissue is removed, and the muscles are tightened to achieve the desired result.
- Suturing: The incisions are closed with fine stitches to support healing and minimize visible scarring.
After the Operation
Minor swelling, bruising, and discomfort are normal after surgery and usually subside within a few weeks. Careful aftercare and proper hygiene are important to prevent infection and promote healing. It is recommended to avoid sexual intercourse for approximately six to eight weeks after surgery to avoid impairing healing and complications.

Questions & Answers
What is vaginoplasty?
Vaginoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to tighten vaginal muscles and improve vaginal structure. This is often performed after childbirth or age-related loss of elasticity.
Does health insurance cover the costs of vaginoplasty?
In most cases, the costs are not covered by health insurance because it is a cosmetic procedure. However, if there are medical reasons such as incontinence or significant functional problems, coverage may be considered in certain cases.
Who is a suitable candidate for vaginoplasty?
Women who desire vaginal canal tightening after pregnancy or age-related loss of elasticity are often good candidates. A consultation with Dr. Ingold can determine whether the procedure is suitable for you.
How does vaginoplasty differ from other aesthetic genital surgeries?
Vaginoplasty focuses on tightening the inner vaginal canal, while other surgeries, such as labia reduction, focus on the outer labia or the external appearance of the vulva.
How long does it take to heal after vaginoplasty?
Complete healing usually takes about 6-8 weeks. During this time, physical activity and sexual intercourse should be avoided to avoid disrupting the healing process.
