Gynaecology

Labiaplasty surgery also known as labia reduction involves removing the excess tissue of the labia minora or labia majora. Clitoral hood reduction may be combined with a labia reduction. Labiaplasty surgery is suitable for those who are unhappy with the appearance of overly large labia, or if excessively large labia catch on clothing leading to pain and discomfort. Labia reduction surgery focuses on reducing, reshaping and contouring the labia so that both aesthetic and functional concerns can be effectively addressed.

Labia minora reduction is the most commonly performed type of labiaplasty. Enlargement of the labia minora can cause functional or aesthetic problems or both and are effectively corrected with surgical reduction of the labia minora.

Labia majora reduction is a technique to reduce the size of overly prominent labia majora which sit on either side of the labia minora. The two main techniques are either liposuction or surgical excision and the correct technique chosen depends on if there is primarily volume excess or skin excess.

Clitoral hood reduction or hoodectomy is a procedure which is designed to reduce the prominence of the clitoral region through the precise reshaping and/or removal of skin surrounding the clitoris. Hoodectomy surgery is often performed in conjunction with a labiaplasty or labia minora reduction to reshape the labia.

Mons reduction also known as mons lift or monsplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the size of an overly prominent mons pubis. Often enlarged due to hormonal changes, weight gain and ageing, an enlarged mons pubis can negatively impact one’s self-esteem and confidence. Moms pubis liposuction often combined with surgical excision is an effective way to remove the excess fat and skin, creating a smoother and tighter mons pubis.

Vaginoplasty also known as vaginal tightening is a surgical procedure designed to tighten the vaginal tissues and underlying muscles of the vaginal wall. Vaginal tissues most commonly develop soft tissue laxity after childbirth but can also occur due to advancing age and in rare cases, certain medical conditions predisposing to soft tissue laxity. The vaginoplasty procedure is designed to effectively reconstruct the vaginal walls to improve both aesthetic appearance and function with a significant improvement in sexual satisfaction.

Perineal and pelvic floor repair are surgical procedures designed to repair injuries sustained after traumatic childbirth or from the natural aging process when the underlying soft tissue support for the vagina has weakened over time. Surgery consists of tightening the pelvic floor to alleviate common symptoms which may include urinary incontinence.

Hymen repair also known as hymenoplasty and hymen reconstruction is a surgical procedure that involves restoration of the hymen to its original form. The hymen, which is a thin membrane, is located across the lower part of the vagina. Most commonly known to tear during sexual intercourse, it can also tear due to sporting activities. This safe and minimally invasive procedure is generally carried out for cultural or religious reasons, helping to restore the appearance of the hymen.

Vaginal rejuvenation also known as “designer vagina” is a term used to describe a number of procedures both non-surgical and surgical to address a number of common female concerns including aesthetic appearance, loss of sensation or vaginal laxity which may be associated with stress urinary incontinence or even pelvic organ prolapse. Non-surgical options include Fotona SMOOTH laser treatment, Votiva and FemTite. Surgical options include labiaplasty, vaginoplasty or pelvic organ repair.

FemTite RF is a new innovative method of achieving skin contraction of the external genitalia including both the labia minora and labia majora. The contraction of the labia majora can achieve results similar to a surgical labiaplasty. Significant weight loss can affect the appearance of the labia majora and FemTite works great for this area also.

Votiva is a non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation treatment for the improvement of vaginal laxity and tone. Not only does it help to improve the appearance of the vagina, it tightens the skin structure and elasticity by increasing the blood flow and sensitivity. The Votiva treatment can be used on the labia, vaginal canal and the vulva.

Laser gynaecology treatments are a safe and effective way to improve many vaginal health concerns using Fotona SMOOTH laser technology. In just a few short treatments, women can achieve tightening of the vagina, improve symptoms of urinary stress incontinence, treat pelvic organ prolapse or reduce vaginal dryness and irritation. There are no incisions, scars, risks or downtime of surgical treatments or any need for traditional prolonged non-surgical treatments and patient satisfaction levels are very high following treatment with Fotona laser gynaecology treatment at Centre for Surgery in London.

IntimaLase® delivers patented Fotona SMOOTH^® laser pulses to the surface of the vagina and vulva. These pulses are specially engineered to produce a mild heating effect, which in turn stimulates the formation of new collagen and strengthens the tissue, giving a firmer and tighter quality. IntimaLase^® has been shown to increase sexual pleasure and positively affect the overall quality of life in treated women.

IncontiLase^® is a gentle laser procedure for treating stress and mixed urinary incontinence. Laser light in a patented Fotona SMOOTH^® pulsing mode is delivered to the vaginal surface through a specially designed delivery system that is designed to be gentle and painless. It results in mild heating of the tissue, triggering the formation of new collagen and strengthening of the pelvic support, which helps to effectively stop or minimize involuntary urine leakage during physical activities, coughing or sneezing.

ProlapLase^® uses gentle Fotona SMOOTH^® technology to treat pelvic organ prolapse. The patented Fotona SMOOTH^® laser pulses are delivered through the vagina to the problematic prolapsed areas and to the whole surface of the vagina. The results of the ProlapLase^® procedure are a strengthening of the tissue and a decrease in the prolapse stage. Regular ProlapLase^® treatments can help to delay or even avoid more invasive procedures for pelvic organ prolapse treatment and significantly improve the quality of life in patients that choose not to have surgery.

RenovaLase^® is a laser treatment for menopause-associated vaginal atrophy that delivers gentle Fotona SMOOTH^® laser pulses to stimulate renewal of the vaginal mucous surface, which can then produce improved levels of lubrication and relieve vaginal dryness and discomfort. RenovaLase^® vaginal atrophy treatment produces results that can last more than a year, without the need for constant applications of cream and gels, thus making sexuality in the golden years more enjoyable and effortless.
