Many women suffer from a sagging vaginal vault after giving birth, a weight fluctuation or simply by nature. It is not always a medical problem, but can ‘only’ put psychological strain on the women affected and have a negative impact on their sex life. In certain cases, the sagging of the vaginal tissue can also lead to incontinence (e.g. stress incontinence) - i.e. an unwanted loss of urine droplets in everyday life.

For many years, treatments have been available that are summarised under the term ‘vagina rejuvenation’, which means vaginal rejuvenation. Vaginal rejuvenation is usually understood to mean treatment tailored to the respective problem or a combination of different treatments, such as labia reduction (labiaplasty) and vaginal tightening (also vaginal tightening). A vaginal tightening is usually combined with an autologous fat transfer to achieve the maximum effect of narrowing the vaginal canal.

Of course, we will have to decide together which of these options promises the perfect result for you.

We may even be able to perform a vaginal tightening for you without surgery. The inner vaginal wall is tightened using radiofrequency steels. To achieve this, a series of 5-8 appointments of 30 minutes each is necessary.

 

For further information, please see the bottom of the page. This is where the advantages and disadvantages of the procedures are presented and the risks and side effects are explained. However, this cannot replace a personal consultation (also via video), in which these aspects are explained and adapted individually. We therefore look forward to a personal consultation with you!

Who is it for?

Vaginal tightening (vaginal tightening or vaginal rejuvenation) is suitable for all women who suffer from a loss of vaginal firmness. Regardless of whether the reason for this is childbirth, a weight fluctuation or a hereditary tendency, vaginal tightening can sustainably improve quality of life and sexuality. The age of the woman does not play any role in a vaginal tightening, as problems of this kind can occur at any age and can be stressful.

Details

The muscles of the vagina (the vaginal canal) are exposed through a small opening in the posterior vaginal vault under a short anaesthetic and tightened using several sutures. This reduces the diameter of the vaginal canal and tightens the vagina. A corresponding amount of excess mucous membrane is then removed to complete the vaginal tightening. This is usually followed by an autologous fat relining of the vaginal wall to achieve a further narrowing and lining of the vaginal wall. With this technique, it is important to correctly tighten the vaginal muscles in the important areas where this tightening must take place in order to achieve an optimal result. Some gynaecological experience is necessary here, otherwise the tightening will be insufficient.

After the treatment

The operation is not very stressful. While you are still asleep, we will apply a small bandage, i.e. a soft compress, to protect and stabilise the inside of the vagina. Apart from an insert in your pants, no other dressing is necessary. After a vaginal tightening, patients can recover in the clinic and then be discharged home. There is no need for suture removal as the sutures are self-dissolving. Of course, it is advisable to take it easy for 7-10 days, even if light physical activity is not a problem. Sexual abstinence should be observed for 3-4 weeks (up to 8 weeks if combined with autologous fat).

Results & Risks

After the initial decongestant phase, wound healing is complete after approx. 2 weeks and the full effect is noticeable.
