Diamond Perineoplasty is a procedure we developed which utilizes our proprietary Diamond Laser Scalpel™ to reshape, contour, and resize the perineum. We believe this to be the most precise, quick, bloodless method, which results in rapid healing and outstanding aesthetics.
The goal of a good perineoplasty is to reshape the perineum in order to create the appropriate spacing between the vagina and anus and/or remove any unsightly tissue or discoloration from the perineum (the perineum is the skin between the anus and the vagina).
There are several barriers to a good perineoplasty:
- Bleeding: The perineum is rich in blood supply. Even small amounts of bleeding during or after the surgery can lead to separation of the incision. This can result in unsightly scar formation.
- Tissue Injury: Surgeons often use electrocautery to control bleeding by burning open blood vessels. Some surgeons alternatively chose to “Zap” bleeding vessels with a laser beam. Both methods result in significant thermal damage to surrounding tissue and can result in scar formation.
- Bad Planning: Unless the surgeon has a good understanding of what the patient wants done to her perineum, the result may not make the patient happy. What the surgeon creates and what the patient wants need to be one and the same.
- Excessive removal of skin: This can actually deform the vaginal opening.
The Diamond Laser Perineoplasty utilizes our proprietary Diamond Scalpel and laser (The Diamond VRL). This unique laser tool allows us to make incisions as precise as a scalpel with almost no bleeding or thermal injury to surrounding tissue. Your GyneShape surgeons will take photographs of your perineum before the surgery and use proprietary morphing software to computer generate your desired changes. This allows you to show us exactly what you want.
