Reasons to Undergo HYMENOPLASTY SURGERY

What is Hymenoplasty?

Hymenoplasty or Revirgination surgery is a surgical procedure performed with a specific purpose that is to restore the hymen within the vagina. The hymen is the membrane partially covering the vagina opening. It can be torn not only by having sex, but also due to several other factors like

• rigorous exercise routine
• swimming
• cycling 
• heavy weight lifting
• riding the horse
• tampon insertion

During the surgery, a skilled surgeon restores the hymenal ring by taking a thin layer of tissue from the vaginal wall and placing it in the location of torn hymen. It can be explained as a medical restoration of the hymen. As a subordinated layer is sewn up to cover the torn skin and it joins together, the hymen will look intact. It will also tighten the vaginal opening which will ensure bleeding upon penetration. 

This procedure can be performed under general anesthesia or under local anesthesia with sedation. It takes about 45 to 60 minutes only. It is an outpatient procedure which means you will be able to go home on the same day after some time. Since you will be having dissolvable stitches, you will get unnoticeable scars. Moreover, it cut down the recovery period to only one week. You will be able to resume your daily activities just after six or seven days following the surgery. However, it will take almost 2 months to heal completely. Overall, it is an extremely safe procedure that can be performed using three different techniques:- 

• By joining the torn edges with stitches
• By taking a flap from vaginal lining to create a functional hymen with proper blood supply
• By placing an artificial membrane in the area that behaves as an artificial hymen. This artificial hymen will not have any blood supply.
