The ‘brutal’ cosmetic procedure more women are getting that make them ‘like a virgin again’

While ducklips and Brazilian butt lifts are becoming increasingly popular, there is one wild procedure that is surprisingly gaining popularity among women.

Vaginal tightening has been around for years, celebrities like Brandi Glanville and Jada Pinkett Smith are getting work done, and the requests for designer vaginas only continue to grow.

According to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS), there were 194,086 labiaplasty procedures in 2022. That is an increase of 46 percent compared to the previous four years.

Former Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star Jenn Harley recently opened up to DailyMail.com about her vaginal rejuvenation experience.

The 36-year-old mother of three turned to Texas-based physician Dr. Aimee Nguyen to remodel her lady parts with a laser procedure after the birth of her third child last year.

“I’m single now so I’m not having any more babies, this is the last one for me,” she explained.

“When you have babies, your vaginal canal opens up, so what Dr. Nguyen does is sews it back together, so it’s basically like being a virgin again!”

Jenn, who is best known for her relationship with Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, said the recovery process made her “a little sore” but said it wasn’t much different than recovering after giving birth.

“I just wanted to get it back to its original state and save it for someone special,” said the real estate agent, who also had liposuction on her arms.

While Jenn opted for laser tightening, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Jessi Ngatikaura took it one step further by getting a labiaplasty — and documenting the entire process on her hit Hulu series.

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure to reduce the size of the labia minora – the skin flaps on either side of the vaginal opening.

It involves cutting away unwanted tissue with a laser scalpel, a procedure that takes about one to two hours.

Mum-of-two Jessi, 32, said childbirth had changed her vagina and she could no longer wear yoga pants, which is what drew her to the surgery.

“My flesh curtains are just hanging low,” she told her stunned co-stars in episode six of the controversial series.

“I’ve noticed a big difference down there, to the point where it’s uncomfortable,” she continued.

“So they basically cut off that extra flesh and make my lips just nice and perfect again.”

While discussing the results with her castmates, Jessi revealed that she wasn’t able to have sex for “four to six weeks” while she recovered from the painful procedure.

Jessi shared the ‘brutal’ recovery period, saying: ‘It felt like I had a blowtorch up there!’

However, she later described her post-operative vagina as ‘perfect’ and told DailyMail.com that she had ‘no regrets’ about going under the knife.

Other celebrities undergoing vaginal procedures include Sonja Morgan and Cynthia Bailey from the Real Housewives franchise, Farrah Abraham and Briana DeJesus from Teen Mom, British reality star Gemma Collins, and according to Khloe Kardashian, her sisters Kourtney and Kim.

In fact, Jada Pinkett-Smith has undergone vaginal rejuvenation procedures three times and has credited it with restoring the youthful appearance of her ‘peach’.

“When I tell you my yoni is like a 16-year-old, I’m not kidding,” she said in a 2018 episode of The Red Table Talk.

‘I’m talking about the outside. It looks like a small beautiful peach.”

Speaking to DailyMail.com, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Deepak Dugar of the Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty Center that some pain and bleeding were common during the recovery process.

“Normally you have a week where you have some pain and some spotting and bleeding, then it takes about four to six weeks before the general swelling goes away and you can resume most major physical exercises and activities, including sexual activity,” said he. .

Dr. Dugar said most women seeking labiaplasty were mothers who had seen their vaginas change after giving birth.

“The biggest changes that happen in the labia usually happen hormonally during puberty, or they happen after pregnancy when there is stretching and tearing,” he explained.

“And so there’s an important thought that these types of procedures should usually be done postpartum and kept until postpartum, due to the fact that more changes can occur after having children with a vaginal delivery.”

What is labiaplasty?

Labiaplasty is an operation to reduce the size of the labia minora – the skin flaps on either side of the vaginal opening.

It involves cutting away unwanted tissue with a laser scalpel, a procedure that takes about one to two hours.

Some women undergo labiaplasty because they do not like the appearance of their labia.

However, the NHS advises that it is completely normal to have noticeable folds of skin around the opening of your vagina.

Women considering labiaplasty are urged to speak to their GP first, who may encourage them to speak to a counselor or psychologist before undergoing surgery.

And when it comes to getting the vulva of your dreams, Dr. Dugar said there was a certain level of customization that patients could ask for.

“I think there’s definitely some customization and different ways that people approach labiaplasty,” he explained.

‘There is a trimming procedure. There is a wedge procedure. So there are different types of labiaplasty that are performed and discussing them with a board certified plastic surgeon is key for them to show you examples of work very similar to yours.

‘Obviously labiaplasty is very personal and private and there won’t be much public information about it, so I think I should go to a surgeon who does a lot of it and let him guide you with before and after pictures so you can being able to understand what the differences are and where you can achieve your goals is crucial.’

Despite the procedure’s popularity, not everyone is a fan.

Body image educator and activist Ellie Sedgwick recently told DailyMail.com that glamorous labia corrections could send the wrong message to young girls.

‘From the research I’ve done and working with sexologists, I know that the part of everyone’s inner labia that is cut off is filled with nerve endings. They say there are upwards of 8,000 to 10,000 nerve endings in there,” Sedgwick said.

“So what worries me is that people are going to have this surgery because they saw something on TV, and they’re going to cut off this beautiful instrument of pleasure just to fit society’s idea of ​​beauty and to conform to beauty standards that not be. realistic.’
