Perineal Repair Surgery

Perineal Repair Surgery is a restorative procedure designed to repair and tighten the perineal area — the region between the vaginal opening and the anus — which may become stretched, torn, or weakened due to childbirth, trauma, or aging. This surgery aims to improve both the functional and aesthetic aspects of the perineum, enhancing vaginal tone, comfort, and confidence.

At Pragati Women’s Wellness & Uro-Gyne Clinic, we perform perineal repair with precision and compassion, helping women restore comfort, sexual satisfaction, and pelvic health after delivery or injury.

Why Is Perineal Repair Needed?

During vaginal childbirth or due to trauma, the perineal tissues and surrounding muscles may stretch or tear. In some cases, improper healing or scarring can lead to discomfort, looseness, or decreased muscle tone. Perineal repair helps correct these issues by reconstructing and strengthening the perineal muscles and tissues.

Who Can Benefit from Perineal Repair?

You may consider perineal repair surgery if you experience:

  • Looseness or gaping at the vaginal opening after childbirth
  • Discomfort, pain, or pressure in the perineal area
  • Reduced sexual satisfaction due to lack of vaginal tightness
  • Visible scarring, asymmetry, or deformity in the perineal region
  • Difficulty maintaining hygiene or recurring infections

How Is the Procedure Performed?

Perineal repair is a safe and effective outpatient procedure, usually performed under local or short general anesthesia. The process includes:

  • Careful marking of the damaged or stretched tissues
  • Removal of any scar tissue or irregular areas
  • Precise reconstruction of the underlying perineal muscles for improved strength
  • Reshaping of the vaginal opening for a natural appearance
  • Closure with fine, absorbable sutures to minimize scarring

The procedure typically takes around 45–60 minutes, and patients can usually return home the same day.

Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery after perineal repair is smooth and straightforward with proper care. Most women resume light activities within a few days, with complete healing in 4–6 weeks.

  • Keep the area clean and dry to prevent infection
  • Avoid sexual intercourse, heavy lifting, or intense exercise for 4–6 weeks
  • Take prescribed pain relief and antibiotics as directed
  • Wear loose, comfortable clothing for faster healing
  • Attend follow-up appointments for evaluation
