What is a Clitoral Hood Reduction?
A clitoral hood reduction is a small surgical procedure to remove obstructive tissue that can cause reduced sensation during sex.
Natural ageing and hormonal changes can lead to a reduction of elasticity and enlargement of skin in intimate areas. This can also happen as a symptom of Lichen Sclerosus. When this occurs to the tissue surrounding the clitoris, it can have a serious impact on the amount of stimulation and pleasure felt naturally during intercourse.
In a clitoral hood reduction operation, Dr. Wagner can carefully reshape and remove excess skin from the clitoral hood to provide support around the clitoris and help restore natural sensation.
What to expect from the treatment
- Initial Consultation: A thorough review of your medical history, goals, and suitability for the surgery.
- The Procedure: The surgery takes place under local anaesthesia using the latest state-of-the-art technology and lasts approximately 45 minutes.
- Recovery & Aftercare: After the operation, a 30-minute recovery period in the practice is observed before you return home.
For a complete recovery, you should avoid swimming, sports, smoking, and abstain from sexual intercourse for the first 6 weeks.
What results are possible?
Through the tightening of the surrounding area and removal of obstructive skin, access to the clitoris for direct stimulation can be restored.
Increased sexual pleasure during intercourse and the restoration of an aesthetic appearance are the most favoured outcomes.
Since each case is entirely unique, the specific outcomes you can expect will be discussed during your personal surgical consultation.
What complication risks are there?
All surgical procedures carry some risk. Although very rare, bleeding, infection, and scarring are always a possibility.
