Women choose cosmetic gynecology for a number of reasons. Far more than simply aesthetic improvement, cosmetic gynecology is able to increase comfort during exercise and sexual intimacy, and can make previously difficult or painful daily activities manageable. Many of Dr. Dugan’s patients have found that they feel more confident wearing form fitting clothing, like workout pants, particular underwear styles, and swimsuits after vaginal rejuvenation.
Dr. Dugan reminds each of her patients that there is no “normal” when it comes to their most intimate of areas. What is important is that each woman feels comfortable and confident about her body.
See below to learn more about the surgical vaginal rejuvenation options available with Dr. Dugan.
Labiaplasty (Labial Reduction)
Labiaplasty addresses the size and shape of the labia minora (the smaller inner vaginal lips) and/or the labia majora (the larger outer lips). While there is a significant amount of variation in the appearance of the labia from woman to woman, asymmetry, an excess amount of skin, or sagging skin can cause discomfort and self-consciousness during exercise, intercourse, or while wearing certain clothing. Dr. Dugan, a cosmetic vaginal surgeon in Annapolis, MD (serving Maryland, DC and Virginia) will customize the labial reconstruction or the labial revision (botched labiaplasty) to the individual's needs to reduce the size, re-shape, and create symmetry within the labia to attain a more aesthetically-pleasing and comfortable feel.
Estimated cost $4000-6500.
Vaginoplasty (Vaginal Rejuvenation)
Vaginoplasty is a surgery to reduce the width of the entire vaginal canal by tightening the laxed muscles and tissues of the vagina, resulting in a tighter and smaller opening. Women who can benefit from this procedure have permanent vaginal stretching and loss of strength and tone as a result of childbirth or aging. A
vaginoplasty by Dr. Dugan, a cosmetic vaginal surgeon in Annapolis, MD (serving Maryland, DC and Virginia) can help revive the way you look and feel. Many women feel that this procedure creates a tighter sensation, thereby making intimacy a more pleasurable experience for her and her partner.
Estimated cost $7500-8500.
Clitoral Hood Reduction
Clitoral hood reduction targets excess skin on the sides of the clitoris which may cause the clitoris to look enlarged or uneven. While this may be performed as a stand-alone procedure, clitoral hood reduction is often performed as part of a labiaplasty, as removal of the excess labial tissue may make the clitoral area appear larger. Neither the clitoris nor the connecting nerves are ever touched during this procedure. The surgery should not be confused with clitoral mutilation or clitoral unhooding. Dr. Dugan will use her experience as a board certified
gynecologist and cosmetic vaginal surgeon to help you develop a plan that is both aesthetically and physically pleasing. The procedure is done in the office under local anesthesia and takes approximately 45 minutes to perform.
Perineoplasty (Perineorrhaphy)
The perineum is the area of tissue between the vagina and the rectum. Childbirth can cause tearing in this delicate area, and is also the site where episiotomies are cut, which can not only look displeasing, but can also cause vaginal looseness. With a perineoplasty, Dr. Dugan of Annapolis, MD, removes excess skin, and the muscles and tissues are rebuilt and tightened, resulting in a tighter vaginal opening. This procedure has been said by some to enhance sexual gratification, and it is typically performed in conjunction with a
vaginoplasty. The procedure is done in the office under local anesthesia and takes approximately one hour to perform.
Estimated cost $4500-5500.
Hymenoplasty
The purpose of hymenoplasty is to repair or reconstruct a women’s hymen. The hymen is a thin membrane that partially covers the vaginal opening and typically tears the first time a woman has sexual intercourse, uses tampons, or participates in vigorous sports, such as horseback riding. For those who want hymen reconstruction or hymen restoration for cultural, religious, or social reasons, Dr. Dugan of Annapolis, MD, will use the Ellman Surgitron to make precise incisions into the vagina to reapproximate the hymenal ring and repair the torn edges so that during sexual intercourse there will be bleeding when the hymen is torn or stretched. The procedure is done in the office under local anesthesia and takes approximately one hour to perform. Estimated cost $4000-5000.
Anal Skin Tag Removal
Anal skin tags, also called rectal skin tags, are growths of skin that protrude from the outside of the anus and are typically of no health concern. Anal skin tags may be mistaken for genital warts or hemorrhoids. These skin tags can result from pregnancy, obesity, constipation, anal intercourse, rectal surgery, or hormonal fluctuations. They may become irritated from wiping, wearing tight underwear or thongs, or sitting for long periods of time. Dr. Dugan of Annapolis, MD, uses the Ellman Surgitron to remove the anal tags. It is performed in the office under local anesthesia and takes approximately 45 minutes to an hour. Estimated cost is $1500-1800.
