THEn these days theInfluencer Michelle Comi made it known to have undergone a surgery of vaginoplasty. He spoke abundantly on social media, with posts, images and videos and also, last night, in the program The hyenas. But what is it about? What kind of intervention is it and why do you do it? Are there risks? Do you have an aesthetic or functional function? But above all, what is the message of this story? There are a thousand questions that the public asked himself. But above all there are many comments from disappointment addressed to the thirty year old, among the first in Italy to have opened a profile on the platform Onlyfans. We talked about it with two experts in women’s gynecological and sexual well -being: the Gynecologist Cinzia Polo And the sex educator Gloria Morasca.
Why a vaginoplasty?
In general the vaginoplastylike any surgery, should be performed only after a in -depth medical evaluation To make sure that there are no underlying clinical conditions that could complicate the result of the intervention. Every woman has a vagina and one vulva different from the others, There are no aesthetic canons to follow.
Undergo surgery for Change the shape of the vulva For purely aesthetic reasons is not recommendedbecause any surgical act must be carefully evaluated in the relationship between risks and benefits. If then a woman, of age, after in -depth visits and information interviews with the trusted gynecologist and surgeon wants to intervene, is free to do so.
What is vaginoplasty and what is it for?
It is a surgery that requires hospitalization and anesthesia and which aims to construction, reconstruction or rejuvenation of the vagina. It may involve the reduction of the vaginal diameter or the repair of the vaginal musculature, which can undergo changes following multiple vaginal parts, aging, muscle damage, or even for aesthetic reasons.
Vaginoplasty can serve to treat a medical condition that involves the vagina, or to improve the appearance of the vagina or in the gear change of sex.
When is it recommended?
“To be recommended only in case of difficulty for daily life to relationships to physical activity, if it becomes a form of discomfort”, recommends Dr. Polo. It is important to reassure women and make them understand that each has its own morphology And There are no canons of beauty but only of well -being», Adds the gynecologist.
«Al International Conference of Medicine and Aesthetic Surgery (SIES) which took place in Bologna in these days I have spoken of the Urinary parent syndrome. When an adult woman presents herself to a doctor with a dysmorphism of the vulva with which she was born and lives for over 50 years it means that the problem is deep and not only aesthetic “, explains Dr. Polo. «Trueing a vulva with surgery always has the reverse of the medal. It could make that woman’s sex life difficult and painful. There are women who need labioplasty. There parental syndrome caused by flair and androgenic deficiency induces profound modifications in the urethral and bladder vulvar vulvar fabrics with symptoms that must be treated not so much with a corrective intervention, but making structural changes and restoring the mucous membranes what has passed away “.
A message to reflect on
«To undergo an intervention like this, with the reconstruction of the concept but above all to labioplasty, means touching several nerve endings, with the risk of promoting future vulvic vaginal disorders such as vulvodynia“, explains Gloria Morasca, sex educator.
“I find it a message to reflect on. Who knows how many other young women will ask the surgeon to improve the appearance of their vulva, approved in the standard forms that can be seen in pornographic films … The school of specialization in sexology is often made a questionnaire and a group test in which ” voice ”to one’s vulva, to learn to take care of it and respect. Here, I would like women to feel in place today with their genitals, without aspire to stereotyped forms», Adds the expert.
How much confidence and awareness do women have with their intimacy?

«The only good thing about this” news “that is spreading is that women will finally take a mirror and learn to look at the vulva, a fundamental gesture to take awareness of one’s intimacy and sexual well -being. But we hope that there is no boom to make up for the vulva! », Glory Morasca concludes.
