Perineoplasty consultation offers a private setting to discuss tissue changes, scarring, discomfort, or concerns after childbirth with Dr. Antonio. Evaluation begins with understanding what you feel, what has changed, and which options may be appropriate.

Changes deserve careful evaluation
The perineum may change after tearing, episiotomy, childbirth, injury, aging, or previous surgery. Symptoms can involve comfort, scarring, support, or the way the tissue feels. Consultation creates space to discuss these concerns without assuming that surgery is the only answer.
Understanding the procedure
Perineoplasty is surgery to repair or reshape selected tissue of the perineum, the area between the vaginal opening and anus. Depending on the individual concern, planning may involve scar tissue, the vaginal opening, or underlying support.
Perineoplasty is not the same as vaginoplasty and does not address every pelvic floor symptom. Dr. Antonio evaluates anatomy, symptoms, childbirth and surgical history, pelvic support, goals, and appropriate alternatives before making a recommendation.
Reasons to begin a discussion
Evaluation can clarify whether a concern involves scar tissue, the perineum, pelvic floor function, deeper support, or another gynecologic issue.
A complete clinical view
Similar symptoms can have different causes. Examination may identify scar tissue, pelvic floor muscle concerns, prolapse, hormonal tissue changes, infection, pain conditions, or other findings that require a different pathway.
Recommendations may include observation, pelvic floor physical therapy, gynecologic care, scar management, hormonal treatment when appropriate, or another surgical consultation rather than perineoplasty.
From consultation to decision
Contact Aris and request a private surgical consultation with Dr. Antonio.
Discuss childbirth history, symptoms, goals, anatomy, pelvic floor concerns, and any previous repair or surgery.
Dr. Antonio reviews whether perineoplasty may be appropriate, realistic limitations, alternatives, risks, and the surgical setting.
If you choose to proceed, preparation, recovery, fees, follow-up, and scheduling are reviewed clearly.
Recovery planning
Early recovery commonly includes swelling, bruising, tenderness, wound care, and restrictions on lifting, strenuous activity, exercise, tampon use, and intimacy. The amount and duration vary by procedure and patient.
Dr. Antonio provides an individualized plan for medication, hygiene, bowel comfort, activity, follow-up, warning signs, and return to daily routines. Patients should contact Aris promptly if healing differs from the instructions provided.
Common questions
Perineoplasty is surgery to repair or reshape the perineum, the area between the vaginal opening and anus. The procedure may address selected scar, tissue, support, or contour concerns based on individual anatomy.
No. Perineoplasty focuses primarily on the perineum and vaginal opening. Vaginoplasty involves deeper vaginal tissue and support. Examination helps determine which concern and procedure, if any, are relevant.
Some patients seek evaluation after tearing, episiotomy, scar formation, or tissue changes following childbirth. Whether surgery is appropriate depends on symptoms, anatomy, healing history, goals, and other pelvic floor findings.
Improved sensation, comfort, orgasm, or sexual satisfaction cannot be promised. Surgery may also cause pain, tightness, altered sensation, or painful intimacy. These possibilities are reviewed during consultation.
Swelling, bruising, tenderness, wound care, and activity restrictions are expected during early healing. Return to work, exercise, tampon use, and intimacy varies by surgical plan and healing.
No. Depending on the concern, gynecologic evaluation, pelvic floor physical therapy, scar care, hormonal management, observation, or another treatment pathway may be more appropriate.
A consultation, not a commitment
A surgical consultation with Dr. Antonio can help clarify the source of your concern, whether perineoplasty may be appropriate, realistic options, and what recovery would require.

Potential complications include pain, bleeding, hematoma, infection, wound separation or delayed healing, scarring, adhesions, asymmetry, narrowing or tightness, altered sensation, painful intercourse, dissatisfaction, pelvic floor symptoms, and need for additional treatment or surgery. Results vary, and no physical, emotional, functional, or sexual outcome is guaranteed. Individual consultation is required.
