Who this page is for
This page is for adults who are thinking about a cosmetic gynecologic procedure and want to understand the options before they contact a clinic. Some want relief from discomfort, some want a change in appearance, and some want both. It is also for people who had surgery elsewhere and want to ask about revision. Adult patients of any age are assessed individually.
The page is general information and cannot tell you what suits you. That is decided at a consultation. Take your time, because there is no need to decide at the first visit.
What the term covers
The term is used for labiaplasty, clitoral hood reduction, vaginal tightening and similar procedures. Some are done for comfort, some for appearance, and often for both. "Vaginal rejuvenation" is a loose label for the same group; we use the name of each procedure instead, because each one does something different.
Labiaplasty
The clinic performs 4th-generation labiaplasty, a laser-based technique that closes the incision without sutures. Because no sutures are used, there is no stitch-removal visit. The labiaplasty pages cover the technique, cost, recovery and flying home.
Revision of a previous labiaplasty
Labiaplasty revision is available for patients who had surgery elsewhere. We assess what can and cannot be corrected before anything is planned.
Vaginal tightening
Vaginal laxity is assessed by measurement first. Surgical and non-surgical options exist, and the vaginal tightening page explains what each can do.
Who performs it
Dr. Mo Hyung-jin, the clinic's medical director, has authored a textbook on female aesthetic surgery used by other specialists. Consultations are available in English. Two of the clinic's three OB-GYN specialists are women.
When function is the real problem
Leaking urine, a bulge or a feeling of pressure are not cosmetic problems. They are assessed as pelvic floor conditions and, when surgery is needed, treated with pelvic ligament suspension.
What to expect at your first visit
The first step is a consultation. It is not a commitment to surgery. The doctor asks what bothers you, whether it is comfort, appearance or both, and reviews your medical history, previous surgery and medications. An examination follows. Consultations are available in English. Bring a written list of questions, because it is easy to forget them in the room.
The doctor explains which options may suit your situation, what each can and cannot change, and the risks. You decide whether to go ahead. Leaving without booking anything is a normal outcome. If you proceed, written consent for the surgery and the anesthesia is taken.
If you are abroad, the first conversation can be an online pre-consultation. The examination itself takes place in person.
Privacy
Appointments are scheduled so that patients do not wait with other patients. Recovery rooms are private single-occupancy suites.
Planning from abroad
After an online pre-consultation you receive a written plan and an estimate in English. Before-and-after photographs are shown only with written patient consent and under identical conditions.
Questions
Is "vaginal rejuvenation" the same as labiaplasty?
No. Labiaplasty reshapes the labia minora. "Vaginal rejuvenation" is used loosely for several different procedures, which is why we name each one.
Can procedures be combined?
Clitoral hood reduction and labia majora augmentation are often planned together. Whether that suits you is decided at consultation.
Does insurance cover cosmetic gynecology?
Many insurers exclude cosmetic procedures. Whether a procedure is reimbursed depends on your policy; we provide documentation, not coverage decisions. Ask your insurer before you travel.
Is there an age limit?
Adult patients of any age are assessed individually. Patients under 19 need a parent or guardian's consent and are assessed individually.
How many days should I plan for a cosmetic procedure?
Your written plan gives the number of days to allow. It covers the consultation and tests, the procedure itself, and a check-up before you fly. Each procedure page explains what those days involve.
