from sexual aesthetic issues and mild urinary incontinence.
Similar to any major cosmetic surgery, the vaginal rejuvenation surgical procedure (vaginoplasty) also has some inherent risks associated with it.
Vaginoplasty long-term complication rates are quite low. However, it is essential for the patient to recognize potential risks such as permanent sensation changes, scarring, persistent pain, and infection before deciding on undergoing vaginal rejuvenation.
