Not so long ago, patients discussed problems in the intimate sphere quietly and shyly - at the reception of a sexologist or gynecologist. Today, aesthetic medicine allows not only to talk openly about the possibilities of improving the sexual health of both women and men, but also to significantly improve the quality of life of patients with the help of intimate plastic surgery.

What, in your opinion, is the level of awareness of patients about the possibilities of intimate plastic surgery?
The level of awareness of people is very different. Starting from the fact that they have not heard anything at all and do not know anything about this branch of aesthetic medicine, to a fairly high level of awareness about the types and options of intimate plastic surgery. If patients are interested in this issue, they usually get information from the Internet. And already at a consultation on a particular type of plastic surgery, they receive more complete systematized information.
Are men or women more interested in intimate plastic surgery? What is the average age of these patients?
More often, women are still interested in issues of intimate plastic surgery, although recently the number of men at the reception for plastic surgery of intimate areas has slightly increased. As a rule, patients of young age apply. In my practice, this is from 19 to 43 years old.
What questions do men have about intimate plastic surgery?
If we consider the issues of intimate plastic surgery for men, then this section includes: circumcision of the foreskin, plastic surgery of the penis frenulum, enlargement of the glans penis, increase in the thickness and length of the penis, as well as the installation of testicular implants. One of the options for intimate plastic surgery can be male sterilization by ligation of the vas deferens. But most often we are approached on the issue of circumcision of the foreskin and plasty of the frenulum of the penis. Although recently, with an increase in the number of men interested in this problem, the variety of interventions is increasing.
What male health problems can intimate plastic surgery solve?
As a rule, with the help of intimate plastic surgery, two main problems are solved: this is a psychological uncertainty - regarding the small size of the penis and a physical problem - the elimination of a short frenulum, the removal of the foreskin.
What do women most often want to correct in the area of their intimate health?
What questions do they usually ask about surgery? What are they afraid of?
Correction options in the intimate area in women are more diverse. If we consider intimate plastic surgery, then the following interventions can be attributed to this category:
- Plasty of large and small labia. It can be either a decrease or an increase. Moreover, there are surgical techniques and minimally invasive injection methods.
- Liposuction of the pubis. It can also be attributed to the section of female intimate plastic surgery, since in some cases this procedure is performed in isolation or in combination with other intimate procedures, for example, reduction of the labia minora.
- G-spot enlargement. Recently, this new direction of intimate surgery has become quite popular, since the technique is less traumatic, the increase is carried out by introducing a special drug based on hyaluronic acid into the G-spot projection area using a thin needle , which helps to expand the G-spot up to 2-3 cm. Thus, sexual sensations are enhanced during intimate contact.
- Hymenoplasty procedure. This is the restoration of the hymen.
- Surgical defloration. The opposite procedure to hymenoplasty, which is quite often performed, is due to the impossibility of defloration during normal sexual contact and, as a result, the impossibility of sexual life.
- Vaginal volume reduction. This type of plastic is quite in demand today. There are surgical techniques and injection methods to reduce the volume of the vagina. The choice of method is carried out individually, depending on the clinical situation and the wishes of the patient
- Clitoplasty. It is carried out in order to remove the excess skin hood that covers the clitoris and does not allow a woman to enjoy an orgasm during sexual activity. This type of plasty is performed by excision of the excess skin fold covering the clitoris or by moving the clitoris closer to the exit to the vagina.
- Improve the condition of tissues in the intimate area. Such improvements are carried out using the procedures for the introduction of platelet-rich plasma, better known as plasmolifting, or using hyaluronic acid preparations for biorevitalization. These techniques improve the properties of tissues, restore the normal color of the area and, by improving the tone, eliminate tissue sagging.
What do those patients who come with questions about intimate plastic surgery usually want to clarify with the surgeon?
In our world of wide access to information, you can find the answer to any question that interests you. Therefore, in most cases, our patients, coming for a consultation, are already sufficiently aware of the problem of interest to them. And more complete information is received from the surgeon during the consultation.
What are the medical indications for intimate plastic surgery? How can it improve the patient's quality of life?
If we consider male intimate plastic surgery, then in most cases, plastic surgery of the frenulum and circumcision of the foreskin of the glans penis are carried out for medical reasons. Plastic surgery of a short frenulum is performed due to its frequent rupture during intercourse, which sometimes causes severe pain or even bleeding from a torn frenulum, and this greatly affects the quality of sexual life. Circumcision of the foreskin is also in some cases performed for medical reasons. The reason for this is phimosis, i.e. constriction of the foreskin and inability to withdraw the glans penis from the preputial sac.
As for female intimate plastic surgery, as I have already said, for medical reasons, surgical defloration can be performed, as well as a reduction in the size of hypertrophied labia minora, which can interfere with normal hygiene and interfere with normal sexual life.
What kind of intimate surgery would you call the most difficult?
Any of the methods of intimate plastic surgery is a complex intervention and requires knowledge of anatomy, physiology, good surgical technique and the necessary equipment from the surgeon. And if there is a resultant of these factors, then this type of plastic surgery becomes simple and allows you to achieve excellent results.
For what reasons can a doctor recommend an intimate plastic surgery to a patient?
I think that intimate plastic surgery can be recommended either for medical reasons, or if the patient wants to correct a particular problem that causes psychological and physical discomfort.
Are there any restrictions and contraindications to intimate plastic surgery? How soon after the operation can the patient return to an active life, including sexual life?
Of course, there are certain contraindications. These include exacerbations of chronic genital diseases, diseases of internal organs in the acute stage.
As for age, we perform intimate plastic surgery for patients from the age of 18, and there is no upper age limit. Intimate plastic surgery can be performed when it is needed.
The recovery period is usually 2 to 3 weeks while the wound heals. Accordingly, you can start sexual activity in the same period. If injection techniques were used, then the rehabilitation period is from 1 to 2 days.
