Vaginoplasty or feminizing genitoplasty is the surgical technique that allows us to convert your external male genitalia into genitalia as similar as possible to female genitalia, both in form and function. A few weeks after the operation, this neovagina, both in terms of position and depth, will allow you to have normal sexual relations, maintain sensitivity and, in this way, achieve climax.
CONTACT USThis type of male-to-female transgender surgery can be performed using two techniques: penile inversion vaginoplasty or colon vaginoplasty. The vast majority of patients are performed with the penile skin inversion technique, reserving colon vaginoplasty for some specific cases. The choice of one or other type of vaginoplasty will be determined by the surgeon depending on the patient's characteristics.
The first step the surgeon will take is to create the vaginal cavity; between the prostate and the urethra at the top and the rectum at the bottom.
The vaginal cavity created is lined with the skin of the penis or, in the case of a colon vaginoplasty, with the intestinal flap.
The next step will be orchidectomy, the operation to remove the testicles.
The penis is then removed, preserving a piece of the glans and foreskin, to be the clitoris and clitoral hood and labia minora, and the urethra is shortened.
Finally, with the remnants, the surgeon will construct labia majora, labia minora and a clitoris with a clitoral hood.
