Perineoplasty: Similarity to episiotomy
Apr 3, 2019
An episiotomy can be large and quite traumatic, or it can be small. The same may be said about a perineoplasty. It all depends on the goal of the surgery and the defect being corrected. Your doctor should be able to help you know how big the incision will be and how traumatic it will be.
Perineoplasty. How many days will I be sitting on a donut?
Healing from a perineoplasty
Apr 3, 2019
Sitting on a donut after a perineoplasty may not be necessary at all. It totally depends on how much swelling, bruising and pain you have. Sometimes this is quite minimal. You can think of it like the swelling after a vaginal delivery. Sometimes there is very little swelling and sitting is not uncomfortable. On the other hand, there are deliveries that are more traumatic, resulting in more swelling. A perineooplasty can be very simple or it can involve a larger, more traumatic incision.
After a perineoplasty how soon can u swim in a pool or the beach?
Swimming after perineoplasty
Apr 3, 2019
There is no clear answer since the term perineoplasty encompasses a wide range of incisional lengths. I recommend a minimum of two weeks of staying dry. If the incision is no longer tender and there has been no bleeding or drainage for at least a week, there would be no harm in swimming. You want to avoid any activity that is going to result in pulling the incision apart.
Could the atrophic vaginitis be back? 6 wks post treat after 3rd ML started having itching & burni
Itching after Mona Lisa treatments
Mar 3, 2019
I think it is unlikely that any itching or burning would be from recurrence of the atrophic vaginitis. I would recommend you see your doctor and determine if you might have a vaginal infection such as from yeast.
What is the recovery for a Perineoplasty and the pain level after? What should I expect, can I dri
Pain after perineoplasty?
Jan 17, 2019
Usually there is not much pain after a perineoplasty – similar to episiotomy pain after a vaginal birth; however, everyone is different and there is always the possibility that there can be more swelling or even a hematoma that would cause more pain. For that reason, i do not think it would be wise to plan on activities the following day. If you were not having pain, there would be know reason that you could not be out, driving, and resuming many normal activities.
Can this extra skin and bumpy look be fixed?
Labioplasty
Jan 17, 2019
This can definitely be fixed with a perineoplasty and/or a labioplasty. It depends on how much it bothers you. I would not recommend doing this if it is purely for cosmetic considerations since you can never know for certain how the final outcome will look and whether or not there may be some scarring.
Are there any medications a patient might take that would stop you performing this procedure on yo
Medications that would preclude use of vaginal laser
Dec 11, 2018
There are no medications that a woman might be taking that would limit the use of the MonaLisa Touch vaginal laser for the treatment of vaginal atrophy.
