Surgical vs. Laser Vaginoplasty
Vaginal laxity after childbirth, ageing, or hormonal changes isn’t just cosmetic—it can affect intimate confidence, sexual satisfaction, and pelvic health. Two proven solutions are available: Surgical Vaginoplasty and Laser Vaginoplasty.
At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, we’ll help you choose based on anatomy, goals, downtime preferences, and budget. Below is a clear comparison of procedure, results, safety, recovery, and cost.
What Is Surgical Vaginoplasty?
A one-time reconstructive procedure that tightens the vaginal canal by removing excess mucosa and tightening underlying muscles and fascia.
- Best for: Moderate–severe laxity (often after multiple vaginal deliveries or age-related changes).
- How it works: Performed under local or general anaesthesia; precise incisions; muscle plication and reshaping; fine suturing.
- Outcome: Structural tightening with long-lasting results.
What Is Laser Vaginoplasty?
A non-surgical, in-office treatment (CO2 or Er:YAG) that stimulates collagen/elastin for gradual tightening and improved lubrication.
- Best for: Mild–moderate laxity, dryness, loss of elasticity.
- How it works: No incisions/sutures; 30–45 minute session; minimal discomfort; typically 3–4 sessions.
- Outcome: Progressive improvement; maintenance advised yearly.

Dr. Dimple Doshi’s Expert Advice
“For significant laxity, surgical vaginoplasty is the most transformative. Laser is ideal for mild cases, lubrication, or maintenance—and some patients benefit from a combined plan.”— Dr. Dimple Doshi, Cosmetic Gynecology Expert, Mumbai
Should You Combine Laser & Surgical?
- Pre-surgery laser can enhance tissue quality.
- Post-surgery laser supports maintenance and long-term tissue health.
- Combination may improve healing response and satisfaction.
