Labial and Vaginal Reconstruction and Rejuvenation

Women's labia come in varying shapes and sizes. Occasionally either anatomically or secondary to obstetric injury, the labia are quite large or irregular in shape and may cause discomfort, self-consciousness or interfere with sports or sexual activities.  A carefully performed and relatively minor plastic surgery proceedure known as "Labiaplasty" or "Labial Reconstruction"  will reduce the enlargement and sculpt the labia.

Additionally, after childbirth and with age, the upper vagina can become "loose" and "lax".   The vaginal opening can loosen and "gape."  Dr. Goodman specializes in remodelling, re-approximating muscles and "tightening" both the opening and the upper vagina.  New Radiofrequency Wave Technology may also be utilized to "tighten the weave" in the upper vagina to support the base of the bladder and help with minimal incontinence, which sometimes accompanies vaginal relaxation. This exciting new technology revolutionizes the concept of "Vaginal Rejuvenation" and makes "vaginal tightening" a safe reality without the sometimes risky use of lasers.

Techniques are also available to tighten the hymenal ring to encourage bleeding with consumation of marriage.
