What
does hymen restoration surgery do?
It restores virginity after the hymen has been ruptured. It can be performed soon after the rupture or much later. The hymen may rupture during rape, agreed intercourse, insertion of tampons, sports, falls, etc.
If the hymeneal remnants are not big enough to be used for the reconstruction or if you are one of those women who are born without a hymen, the surgeon can reduce the opening of the vagina using a small portion of the vaginal mucous tissue. During the first intercourse, there will be a small rupture of this newly reconstructed hymen that will be very similar to the rupture of a natural hymen.
Hospitalization: No hospitalization is needed.
It is performed on an outpatient basis.
Anesthesia: The procedure is performed under local anesthesia,
but mild oral sedation may also be prescribed if necessary.
Length: Four to six hours.
How
is hymen restoration performed?
The surgeon will join again the hymeneal
remnants with very small sutures. It will be necessary to make two small
incisions on the edges of each fragment before joining them so that they
will heal and constitute a unit. It may happen that no hymeneal remnants
are available; this may be because they are too small or because you were
born without a hymen. In these cases, the surgeon will reduce the vaginal
opening using a small portion of the vaginal mucous tissue in order to
shape a new hymen.
