Question about colon vaginoplasty

[vanillascent001]

Hi girls,

Anyone here had colon vaginoplasty? Any pros and cons? I consider it because of the depth and lubrication issues.  I'm planning my surgery at the end of this year.

I know 3 girls/woman that had it done.

The first thing, is a great propensity to suffer abdominal distension as a post-op condition. All 3 have it and all look like the are about to give birth!

Lubrication... in deed, but it can be a curse having a perpetually sticky and not so pleasantly smelling vulva. At least initially it produces lots smelly jelly-gob. This my be from 1 - 3 years post op for all I have learned.

Depth, you will get, but at the price of having your abdominal cavity entered in order to do the colon-section (colovaginoplasty). The most intrusive SRS option as it stands.
Yet, since the average natal female depth is also only around 4 1/2 inches, why actually bother to sport 6" or more? Just my opinion.

The last item, width, often may be far more of an issue with colon-section due to ring-scar-contraction at the vaginal-introitus. A zigzag scar is better but not as easily performed since many surgeon don't seem to bother with it.
I've seen one (ring-scar), it would hardly fit a pencil, though it was ~ 6" deep - and smelly!

If you have enough penile and scrotal skin, don't even consider it. My best advice.
If you don't... still first consider additional skin-graft from the inner thigh area.
If all fails... and your surgeon should know - only then consider colon-section.

My 2 cents,
Axélle

Thanks for the information! I have been considering going this route, but have not been sure. Is this a two stage procedure? Will I need to go back for a labiaplasty? What was your experience? Are you satisfied with your results?

Mindie,
as I pointed out those are NOT my results, but of 3 women that I happen to know.

For 2 women done in SA it was/is a 3 stage protocol/op, the 3rd woman done in NZ, I'm not sure.

Personally having had inversion protocol, it took more then 7 hours. I have my doubts whether colovaginoplasty would be done all in one op.
I'm not very sure though.
The colon-op portion is about 2 hours, (middle 2nd op of the 3 op protocol) that I know. It IS very invasive as I mentioned, having to work inside the abdominal cavity which is NOT the case with normal inversion – unless more depth is asked for.
To do at the same time, colon-section, penectomy, orchiectomy, plus clitoroplasty, plus labiaplasty, sounds a bit of a push to me... but... it will also depend on the surgeon I suppose.

In my case the inversion took also 3 ops, #2 was very short ~20min, and #3 about 1 hour.
