Hymenoplasty In San Antonio, TX

This surgery is the reconstruction of the hymen. Cultural, religious, or social reasons predominate when this surgery is contemplated. Hymenoplasty is performed to make the patient appear virginal. It works for women who have not had vaginal deliveries, and preferably, for those who have never been pregnant.

We take advantage of a radiofrequency electrosurgical device to make extremely precise incisions into the vagina and remnants of the hymeneal ring to bring them into close approximation to allow delicate sutures to hold the tissues in place. Once healed, the act of sexual intercourse can result in bleeding when the hymen is torn or stretched.

Hymenoplasty is done in the office under local anesthesia. This procedure takes 60 minutes to perform.
