Genital Rejuvenation – an evolving concept : MIMS Hospital

Posted by Aster Mims On Saturday, August 30, 2014
              Genital rejuvenation has become popular in the last decade and its popularity is slowly catching up over the past few years. The general acceptance of the procedures is on the rise as people have changed their outlook towards themselves.

          Lot of changes happen to the female genitalia over a period of time. During pregnancy, hormonal changes cause a hypertrophy or swelling of the labia majora (vulva) and labia minora. The repeated swelling and stretching of these structures with multiple pregnancies may cause a significant permanent enlargement of the labia minora. The large hanging labia may pose both a visual annoyance to a woman as well as a functional nuisance. Such symptoms might include a dislike of the size and appearance of one’s labia, asymmetry of the labia, and awkwardness during sexual intercourse, trouble urinating (having to separate labia during urination), recurrent yeast infections in the skin folds from moisture retention, and pain during intercourse or exercise.

        Other changes following childbirth include a loosening of the vaginal canal caused by the stretching of the muscles and lining of the vagina and loosening of the muscles of the pelvis. These structures are most affected during the actual birth process, and never fully recover to their native state. This loosening may lead to a lesser degree of sexual pleasure or satisfaction for both the woman and her partner.

      Weight gain and the redistribution of body fat over time can also cause a problem for both men and women in the form of enlargement of the mons pubis. The effect of this enlargement is a "hooding" of the genitals, especially in the standing position. For men, this can cause the penis to appear considerably shorter by 2 or more inches. For women, it can cause the appearance of a masculine budge when wearing tight fitting clothing such as swimsuits or exercise pants.

      There are various reasons why a patient would want to consider Genital Rejuvenation. Most patients seek more youthful, attractive genitals, particularly after bearing children. Others desire heightened sexual pleasure. Some individuals request Genital Rejuvenation for functional or hygiene purposes. Regardless of the reason, most individuals experiencing any of the above symptoms are candidates for one or multiple genital rejuvenation procedures.

Common Genital Rejuvenation procedures in females:

  •  Labiaplasty : It is a procedure, which reduces or reshapes the labia minora (inner lips) and or labia majora (outer lips) to make them either smaller or symmetrical. This leaves the patient with an attractive youthful appearance. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia in the out patient clinic or the operating room. Light sedating medications can be given to relax the patient and keep them comfortable and at ease. After the one-hour procedure, the patient can go home and recuperate. The recovery is quick and usually associated with only mild discomfort. Antibiotics and medications are prescribed to keep the patient comfortable and problem free. Sexual relation may usually be resumed in 2 to 3 weeks.
  • Vaginoplasty : It is a surgical procedure, which tightens the vagina. This procedure can be performed under a general or local anesthetic. Redundant vaginal tissue is removed, the muscles of the vaginal canal are tightened, and the vagina is made smaller (narrower). This procedure can greatly enhance sexual pleasure both for the woman and her partner. The procedure takes approximately one hour to perform. The recovery is quick and easy. Mild soreness is experienced. Antibiotics and medication to keep the patient comfortable are prescribed. Sexual relations may be resumed in about 4 weeks.
  • Mons Pubis Reduction: It is a surgical procedure, which removes the redundant fatty and connective tissues from the mons pubis. This can be accomplished through liposuction or direct excision. A simple liposculpturing can markedly reduce the mons pubis giving a much more youthful appearance to the region. The procedure may be done under local or general anesthesia depending on the patient’s personal preference and circumstances. The procedure lasts about an hour. Recovery is associated with some swelling of the genitals and some mild to moderate discomfort. Antibiotics and medications to keep you comfortable are prescribed. Sexual relations may be resumed in 1 to 2 weeks.
  • Hymenoplasty : It is a surgical procedure that repairs the hymen by suturing the remains of the ruptured hymen from a previous sexual experience, or strenuous athletic activity. This procedure is popular among strict Islamic women and women of other religions that insist brides must be virgins before marriage. The procedure can also heighten sexual satisfaction because the vaginal walls are tightened. The procedure is usually performed as out patient room procedure under local anesthesia. The procedure is usually 3 to 4 weeks prior to the marriage.
  • Reducing the length and protrusion of the clitoral hood and clitoris : It is a surgical procedure that reduces the size of the clitoris. Some women are very self-conscious about the projection of the clitoris because they feel like they have a small penis. The procedure is simple and is usually done under local anesthesia. The patient can get back to her normal routine after the procedure. Sexual interaction has to be delayed for at least 2 weeks.
  • Labia augmentation or Fat grafting of the Labia Majora : It is a procedure in which patients own fat is harvested and injected into the labia majora to provide bulk and youthful appearance to the external genitalia. The procedure can be done under local anesthesia or under regional anesthesia. The patient can go home on the same day after the procedure. Sexual interaction has to be delayed for at least 2 to 3 weeks.

Genital Rejuvenation procedures in males:

  • Male genital rejuvenation surgery : It includes increasing the length and the girth of the penis. The maximum length of the penis that can be surgically achieved is about 24mm. The procedure involves liposuctioning of the mons pubis and if required releasing the suspensory ligament of the penis at the level of pubic bone. Injecting patient’s own fat into the penis can increase the girth of the penis. The procedure is usually done regional anesthesia.

One whole village heading towards organ donation

Posted by Aster Mims On Saturday, August 30, 2014 
 
 




 
 
         Vengeri village in our district consisting of 4 wards of Calicut  corporation, is now heading towards a mass campaign for educating the whole family in the village on the importance and necessity of organ donation. They are also setting up an office in the Village to constantly interact with the community to create awareness, facilitate donor registration and also to serve as an active interface between the family and the transplant centre in the event of brain death of any of the registered donor in the Village.

              Taking lessons from the achievement of Thalakkulathur Village who has already achieved 260 eye donations through similar campaign, Vengeri Village is now planning not only eye donations but any organ or tissues that can be transplanted to save a life. Their ultimate vision is to make organ donation a culture of the village by creating awareness.

              They have meticulously planned to achieve this goal in a time bound manner. we are so happy to let you all know that MIMS also got an opportunity to be part of this noble initiative. Dr. Firoz (Nephrologist) and Dr. Krishnamohan (Transplant Surgeon) made a very good presentation and they addressed the people to clear their doubts as part of the awareness campaign. Thanks to Dr. Firoz and Dr. Krishnamohan.

All our best wishes to this noble initiative.
