Vulvar Reconstruction

Vulvar reconstruction surgery can correct various structures of the vulva so that its appearance can be as similar as possible to that of natural female genitalia.

Your surgeon can evaluate with you the areas that can be corrected.

Complete healing of the initial surgery (vaginoplasty or vaginoplasty without vaginal cavity) can take up to one year. The surgeons at GRS Montreal therefore recommend waiting one year after your initial surgery before undergoing vulvar reconstruction.

Vulvar reconstruction can be performed at the same time as other corrective surgery or Male to Female surgery.

Expected results:

  • A vulva with an appearance as similar as possible to natural female genitalia.  

*Due to multiple factors that are unique to each individual, results may vary from one person to another. Be assured that our surgical team works with each patient individually to achieve the best results possible.
