Vaginal tightening (surgical)
A surgical procedure designed to restore the firmness of the vaginal canal by tightening muscles and supporting tissues. Often recommended for women who experience vaginal laxity due to childbirth or aging, this procedure enhances both function and sexual confidence.

The surgery involves removing part of the loosened vaginal wall tissue and suturing the pelvic floor muscles to make the vaginal canal tighter.
Excision of excess tissue.
Step 1
Incise the vaginal mucosa: From the vaginal opening upwards 5–7 cm, make an incision along the marked line.
Step 2
Separate the mucosa from the muscle layer: Detach the vaginal mucosa from the deeper pelvic floor muscles and rectovaginal septum to expose the loosened muscle layer.
Step 3
Remove loosened tissue: Excise portions of redundant mucosa and scar tissue, especially at sites of poorly healed postpartum lacerations.
Pelvic floor muscle plication
Step 1
Pelvic floor muscle suturing: Bring together and suture the loosened levator ani muscles and transverse perineal muscles from both sides toward the midline. This helps reduce the vaginal diameter and enhance support.
Step 2
Layered suturing: First suture the deep muscle layer, then the mucosal layer. Absorbable sutures are usually used, eliminating the need for removal.
