Restore Function and Refine Intimate Anatomy
Feminine rejuvenation is an anatomy-based approach to molding, sculpting, and tailoring the mons, labia, perineum, and vaginal opening to improve appearance and function. Dr. Morwood focuses on reducing redundant tissue, correcting stretching and attenuation following pregnancy or vaginal delivery, and restoring a trimmer, cleaner, and more balanced anatomy. Depending on your concerns, procedures such as monsplasty, labiaplasty, perineoplasty, and vaginoplasty may decrease protuberance, elevate tissues, and reduce the circumference of the vaginal introitus to address deeper structures, including muscle and fascia.
Feminine Rejuvenation Treats:
- Excess, redundant labia minora or labia majora tissue
- Chafing and pulling during activities like bicycling, running, or intercourse
- Loose, floppy, or stretched labial tissues affecting comfort and appearance
- A droopy, ptotic, or protuberant mons with excess fat or redundant skin
- Stretching and attenuation of the vaginal opening after vaginal delivery
- Decreased friction during intercourse due to a widened vaginal introitus
- Loss of perineal height and shortened distance between the vagina and anus
- Scar tissue or distortion following episiotomy or vaginal tearing
- Deflated or excess volume in the labia majora requiring tightening or re-volumizing
- Urinary concerns related to weakened support of surrounding tissues in select cases
Common Feminine Rejuvenation Techniques Offered by Dr. Morwood
Labiaplasty
Labiaplasty molds, shapes, and tailors the labia to reduce redundant, loose tissue and decrease protuberance. Dr. Morwood customizes the approach using the edge trim technique, removing excess along the length, or the wedge technique, excising a segment and advancing tissue. This creates a crisper, cleaner, more trim appearance while preserving function.
Monsplasty
Monsplasty shapes and debulks the mons, the pubic triangle, by removing excess fat and redundant tissue to reduce a protuberant or droopy appearance. Dr. Morwood may use a closed approach with liposuction or an open approach to excise tissue and elevate the mons. The goal is to produce a slimmer, more youthful contour with improved tone.
Perineoplasty
Perineoplasty reconstructs the perineal body, the tissue between the vaginal opening and anus, often stretched after childbirth. Dr. Morwood excises mucosa and skin, advances the tissue, and reapproximates the deeper muscle layers. This restores vertical height, lengthens the distance between structures, and improves structural support and the overall contour of the area.
Vaginoplasty
Vaginoplasty shapes, molds, and tightens the vagina by decreasing the circumference of the vaginal introitus. Dr. Morwood most commonly uses a posterior approach, excising the mucosal lining and tightening stretched, attenuated muscle like the levator ani. This reconstructs deeper tissues, restores support, and creates a tighter opening with improved functional anatomy.
Feminine Rejuvenation FAQs
Am I a Good Candidate for Feminine Rejuvenation?
You may be a suitable candidate if you are bothered by excess tissue, protrusion, looseness, or functional concerns involving the mons, labia, perineum, or vaginal opening. Many women seek treatment after pregnancy, vaginal delivery, or due to natural anatomy. The best candidates are those pursuing feminine improvement for themselves (not due to external pressure), and those with realistic expectations and a clear understanding of what is possible.
Will Feminine Rejuvenation Improve Sexual Pleasure?
Sexual pleasure, stimulation, and orgasm are complex and multifactorial, influenced by both physical and emotional factors. While a vaginoplasty can decrease the size of the vaginal opening, there is no clear, definitive scientific evidence that this alone improves sexual pleasure or orgasm. However, improved confidence and comfort may positively influence your experience.
Will I Lose Sensation After Surgery?
In general, feminine rejuvenation does not lead to decreased sensation or arousal. However, any incision can affect sensory nerve fibers. You may experience temporary numbness or, less commonly, hypersensitivity within the scar. These changes improve with time, and normal sensation returns to the surrounding tissues above, below, and around the treated area.
Can Feminine Rejuvenation Help After Childbirth or Injury?
Yes. Pregnancy, vaginal delivery, episiotomy, or tearing can stretch and attenuate tissues, reduce perineal height, and create scar tissue. Procedures like perineoplasty and vaginoplasty address deeper structures, including muscle, to reconstruct and restore anatomy. This can improve both function and appearance reliably and predictably.
