Restorative Perineum Repair
Perineoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at repairing and reconstructing the perineum—the sensitive area between the vaginal opening and the anus. This area often suffers from scarring, loosening, or damage due to episiotomies or natural tearing during childbirth. Dr. Smitha performs this surgery to restore the strength of the pelvic floor and the aesthetic integrity of the vaginal opening.
By removing old scar tissue and tightening the underlying muscles, Perineoplasty addresses both functional issues, such as vaginal gaping and discomfort, and aesthetic concerns. The result is a more supported pelvic floor and a restored appearance that helps women feel more comfortable and confident in their daily lives and intimate moments.

Perineoplasty FAQ
Expert answers to your questions about perineal reconstruction and recovery.
Yes, these procedures are very commonly combined. While Vaginoplasty tightens the internal vaginal canal, Perineoplasty focuses on repairing the external opening and supporting structure, providing a complete functional and aesthetic restoration.
No. Dr. Smitha uses dissolvable sutures that are absorbed by the body over several weeks. This eliminates the need for a follow-up visit for stitch removal and ensures a more comfortable healing process.
While light walking is encouraged shortly after surgery, you should avoid heavy lifting, cycling, and strenuous workouts for 6 weeks. It is also necessary to wait 6 weeks before resuming sexual intercourse to ensure full healing of the repair.
