Due to increase in parity and high standards of living in the UAE, an increasing number of women are seeking cosmetic gynecology procedures in the UAE.
These include vaginal tightening and G-spot enhancements, according to Dr Aisha Al Mukhtar, obstetrics and gynecology specialist at Health Shield.
"There is no clear statistics on how many women get these procedures performed, but on an average, in a well-known busy gynecology clinic the rate is about four to five surgical vaginal tightening procedures per month and 40-50 laser vaginal tightening sessions per month," she tells Khaleej Times.
Women are also undergoing G-spot enhancement procedures for a better sexual life, says the doctor.
"If the woman has persistent or recurrent inability to reach orgasm during sex, G-spot enhancement is used to enhance her sexual pleasure and gratification," Dr Aisha says.
"This is usually done by injecting filler into a woman's G-spot area, making it to project lower into vagina and become easily stimulated," she tells while explaining the procedure.
However, before these procedures are done, the doctor obtains a detailed patient medical history including previous treatment modalities. "We also have to determine why the patient seeking treatment and understand her expectations," she says.
Clinical examination of the patient is done to determine the type of procedure whether surgical vaginoplasty or by laser vaginal rejuvenation (LVR) taking in consideration her future family planning while a pregnancy test is also performed at least one day prior to procedure as well as a pap smear test done.
Women need vaginal tightening due to child birth and natural aging process. Sometimes, it is needed to control urinary incontinence or bowel movements issues.
"Up to 76 per cent of women experience a widened vagina resulting in decreased vaginal sensation and loss of pleasure during sex and dissatisfaction of both partners," says Dr Aisha, adding that other reasons were aesthetic and for vaginal remodeling.
The surgical procedure usually is advisable after a woman completes her family while the LVR can be done at any time during her life.
Vaginal tightening procedure is surgical and vaginoplasty requires anesthesia as well as hospitalisation. "The vaginal wall is repaired and the muscles are strengthened using deep suture," explains the doctor.
LVR needs to be performed three to four times for most people to get the intended outcome. "These sessions are performed with a break of few weeks to allow the area to recover. It is an office procedure so no anesthesia required and takes less than 15 minutes."
Dr Aisha says that reduction of labia minora has increased in popularity and is the most frequently performed vaginal procedure worldwide. "Women frequently give non-aesthetic reasons for seeking surgery like discomfort with clothing, interference with sports," she adds.
