In recent years, intimate surgery has seen significant growth in aesthetic surgery. The demand for intimate surgery for both men and women continues to rise steadily. This trend is due to advancements in surgical techniques and increased awareness of the benign nature of such surgical interventions.
For women, intimate surgery addresses various requests such as:
- Augmentation of the labia majora using fat transfer (lipostructure)
- Reduction of the labia minora through labiaplasty
- Vaginal tightening to address post-childbirth laxity with vaginoplasty
- Clitoral repair for victims of female genital mutilation (FGM)
- Correction of clitoral hood hypertrophy
- Hymen reconstruction (hymenoplasty)
Women’s intimate surgery can serve as reconstructive surgery, such as clitoral reconstructive surgery after FGM. It can also encompass aesthetic intimate surgery, such as labiaplasty for reducing the labia minora.
In the case of reconstructive intimate surgery, the procedure may be covered by social security.
