Aesthetic Surgery Growing In Popularity, But Not For The Reasons Many People Think

OWINGS MILLS, Md., March 13, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The term "mommy make-over" may conjure images of tummy tucks and butt lifts, but for many women suffering from genital abnormalities, congenital conditions of the genitalia, sexual dysfunction, as well as female urologic conditions such as pelvic prolapse and incontinence, a "mommy make-over" in terms of female genital aesthetic surgery is life-changing.

Dr. Karen Boyle of Chesapeake Urology Associates and Chesapeake Aesthetic Surgery Center, has helped restore the intimate appearance, self-confidence and sexual function of countless women through genital aesthetic surgery.  Dr. Boyle is one of the country's leading male and female sexual health and aesthetic surgery experts and performs the specialized aesthetic surgical procedures for women, and men, to not only restore intimate appearance but sexual gratification and function as well. What makes Dr. Boyle unique among aesthetic surgeons is her extensive training and experience in urology, sexual health and microsurgery. Because of this training, she not only understands the cosmetic side of aesthetic surgery but also how to ensure that a woman's sexual function is preserved, restored and/or enhanced.

Aesthetic Surgery for Women on the Rise

Aesthetic surgery is becoming more popular as more women seek to enhance and refine their natural appearance and shape.  Some of the leading procedures that Dr. Boyle performs for women at Chesapeake Aesthetic Surgery Center include:

• Vaginal rejuvenation – Vaginal rejuvenation is a modification of a gynecological surgical technique used for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence and works by effectively enhancing vaginal muscle tone, strength and control. Vaginal rejuvenation is designed to enhance sexual gratification and address the problem of vaginal relaxation, which often occurs because of age, childbirth, weight loss and gain. These factors cause the vaginal muscles to relax and have poor tone, strength and control. The internal and external diameters of the vagina increase and the muscles of the perineum become weak and poorly supported. Because the vagina is no longer at its optimum physiological state, the sensual side of sexual gratification is diminished.
• Labiaplasty – Labiaplasty is a procedure to reduce the size or reshape the labia minora (small inner lips), the skin which surrounds the vaginal opening.  When the labia are misshapen or enlarged, many women experience problems with sexual intercourse, intimacy and self-confidence in their appearance. Enlarged labia can be often seen through tight fitting pants and bathing suits and can cause discomfort when wearing clothes, exercising and with intercourse. Usually this problem is congenital, but can also occur from hormonal changes or childbirth. Labiaplasty sculpts the elongated or unequal labial minora to create an overall pleasing appearance for women.  
• Clitoral hood reduction – The clitoral hood is the tissue that covers and surrounds the clitoris. Sometimes, this tissue can become enlarged, often in combination with enlarged labia minora, making sexual stimulation more difficult. This outpatient procedure removes some of this tissue so that the clitoris can be more easily stimulated, resulting in higher sexual sensation and satisfaction.

"Many women come to me because they are unhappy with their intimate appearance or have lost some natural function that may have been damaged by aging, childbirth, weight gain and loss or pregnancy," says Dr. Boyle. "Genital aesthetic surgery is something women do for themselves to improve their confidence, their pleasure and to feel good about the most personal part of their bodies. As a woman, I can certainly understand what my patients are going through."
