St. George Body Sculpting & Aesthetics
Vaginoplasty in Henderson, NV | Dr. Ahmed
As women progress through different stages of life—such as childbirth, aging, or hormonal changes—the body can undergo natural changes. One of the most sensitive areas affected is the vaginal area. Whether it’s a feeling of looseness after children, age, or simply over time, it can impact your confidence and emotional well-being. That’s where vaginoplasty comes in. Below, you’ll find a comprehensive breakdown of the procedure and why Dr. Mustafa Ahmed is a trusted healthcare provider for women.
Why Women Consider Vaginoplasty
Many women struggle with the physical and emotional effects of vaginal laxity. While common, here are a few reasons why women choose to undergo vaginoplasty:
- Post-childbirth changes: Vaginal childbirth can stretch and weaken the pelvic muscles and tissues. For some women, it can result in a feeling of looseness, decreased friction, or discomfort during intimacy.
- Aging-related concerns: As the body ages, tissues naturally lose elasticity. It can affect vaginal support and tone, leading to discomfort.
- Reduced sexual sensation: A lack of muscle tone can diminish sensation during intercourse, which may impact both physical pleasure and emotional intimacy.
It’s important to know that vaginoplasty is a personal choice, and one that can help you reclaim confidence, comfort, and control over your body.

- Increased vaginal tightness
- Enhanced sexual satisfaction

What to Expect During a Vaginoplasty with Dr. Ahmed
Dr. Mustafa Ahmed has earned a reputation for compassionate care and precision-based outcomes. Here’s a breakdown of the process:
Personalized Consultation
On your first visit, Dr. Ahmed will discuss your concerns, medical history, and goals. He’ll perform an exam to understand your anatomy and create a customized treatment plan.
Pre-Surgical Requirements
Before you choose surgery, you’ll receive pre-op instructions to follow at home. It can include lab tests and other guidelines. You’ll also receive a checklist to prepare for surgery day.
The Surgical Procedure
Vaginoplasty is performed under general anesthesia and usually takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. Dr. Ahmed will tighten the vaginal muscles and remove any excess tissue as needed. In some cases, he may perform additional adjustments to the labia or perineum to create a natural, balanced result.
Once the procedure is complete, absorbable sutures are used to close the incisions. You’ll be moved to a recovery suite for monitoring before being discharged with post-op instructions and medications.
Post-Op Care and Follow-Up
After surgery, you’ll be given everything you need to manage your recovery at home, including prescriptions for pain relief, antibiotics, and stool softeners. You’ll return for a follow-up exam within the first week and again around the six-week mark. Dr. Ahmed and his team will be available throughout the process to answer questions and ensure a smooth recovery.
Recovery & Aftercare
Week 1
Expect some swelling, bruising, and some pain as this is all part of the process. You’ll need to rest from heavy exercising and wear a pad and not a tampon. Gentle walking is recommended to avoid stiffness and encourage blood flow.
Weeks 2–4
With the swelling gone, you can resume light work or household activities. Do not exercise, lift heavy items, or have sex.
Week 6
Most patients are ready to resume all normal functions, even sexual intercourse and exercise. Dr. Ahmed will have a follow-up examination to ensure healing is progressing.
Months 3–6
Final results begin to appear as scar tissue softens. Most women feel completely satisfied at this time and continue to see improvements in both comfort and intimacy.

FAQ
What is vaginoplasty, and how does it work?
Vaginoplasty is a surgical procedure that tightens the vaginal canal by bringing stretched muscles and supportive tissue back together. Dr. Ahmed makes precise internal incisions, re-approximates the muscles with dissolvable sutures, removes any excess tissue, and often strengthens the perineum (the area just outside the vaginal opening). The result is a firmer, better-supported canal that can feel more like it did before childbirth or age-related laxity.
Who is a good candidate for vaginoplasty in Henderson?
You may be an ideal candidate if you:
- Feel vaginal looseness after childbirth or with aging
- Notice decreased sexual sensation or partner feedback about reduced friction
- Experience chafing, irritation, or a “heavy” feeling during exercise or daily activities
- Are in good overall health, a non-smoker (or willing to quit before surgery), and have realistic expectations about results
How long does a vaginoplasty procedure take?
Vaginoplasty lasts about 1.5 to 2 hours. If you combine vaginoplasty with labiaplasty or other procedures, plan on a slightly longer time in the operating room. Because it’s typically done as an outpatient surgery, you’ll head home the same day with a trusted driver.
What’s the recovery time after vaginoplasty?
Recovery is gradual but manageable:
- First week: swelling, bruising, and a deep “pressure” sensation. You’ll rest, use ice packs, and take gentle walks.
- Weeks 2–4: most women return to desk work; light chores are fine, but avoid strenuous exercise.
- Week 6: Dr. Ahmed usually clears patients for intercourse, tampon use, and full workouts.
- Months 3–6: scar tissue softens and the final sensation continues to improve.
Will vaginoplasty improve sexual sensation?
Many patients—and their partners—report heightened friction and stronger sensation once healing is complete. While individual experiences vary, tightening the muscles often restores the tactile feedback lost after stretching, leading to greater confidence and intimacy.
Is vaginoplasty painful?
Most women describe the immediate post-op feeling as soreness or pressure rather than sharp pain. Discomfort typically eases significantly after the first week, and over-the-counter pain relievers are often all that’s needed thereafter.
Are the results of vaginoplasty permanent?
The muscle repair itself is long-lasting, but natural aging, hormonal shifts, or future vaginal deliveries can gradually stretch tissues again. That said, most patients enjoy years, often decades, of sustained tightness and improved support when they follow healthy lifestyle habits and pelvic-floor exercises.
