Female genital cosmetic surgery
From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki
Female genital cosmetic surgery (abbreviated to FGCS)[1] is a category of surgical operations that reshape the vagina.[2]
Types of surgery[edit]
FGCS can be divided into two types.
- Vaginoplasty, in which the vagina, which may have been loosened due to childbirth or aging, is tightened.[3]
- Labiaplasty, in which the size and shape of the labia is changed; this can be performed on either the labia majora and labia minora.[3] Reduction of the labia minora is the most common form of female genital surgery.[4]
