Perineoplasty
Having a baby may disrupt muscles that keep the opening of the vagina (vaginal introitus) narrow. The superficial transverse perineal muscle will often tear and retract. Patients often complain their vaginal introitus is "gaping" or sexual intercourse is not the same as it was prior to giving birth to her children.
In patients who have the above concerns or complaints and where the superficial transverse perineal muscles are no longer together, these patients are excellent candidates for laser perineoplasty. The goal of perineoplasty surgery is to restore the normal structure of the external aspect of the vaginal opening in hope of addressing patient concerns mentioned above.
