Re-virginising: From an Australian clinic’s advertisement offering hymen repair surgery, or hymenoplasty
Many women approach us to have their hymen re-instated for social, cultural and religious reasons. Many women’s hymens may have inadvertently broken through strenuous sporting and vigorous activity. We have been performing this simple procedure for many years.
How does a hymen repair/restoration procedure work?
The aim of this procedure is to make the patient appear virginal. This is a procedure requiring precise incisions in order to bring the hymeneal ring membranes into close approximation. These are finely sutured to hold the tissue in place.
During subsequent sexual intercourse the hymen is torn which usually results in bleeding.
What should you expect after hymen repair/restoration surgery?
You will be able to resume normal light activities by the next day (after surgery), however, we recommend you take five to 10 days off work and avoid sexual intercourse until 30 to 45 days after treatment.
How much does it cost?
As every patient we see has different requirements, it is difficult to provide standardised pricing as each procedure is tailored for each individual patient’s situation. A no-obligation consultation with one of our surgeons is essential in determining what you require.
