Understanding the Procedure
Hymenoplasty Surgery
The hymen is a delicate tissue, and once it is ruptured, only small fragments may remain. Repairing or reconstructing the hymen requires the skilled and experienced hands of an expert.
Hymenoplasty is performed in-office under local anesthesia, making it a convenient and safe option for patients.
The procedure typically takes between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the individual case. After the surgery, the hymen requires time to heal, with an optimal recovery period of about six weeks.
However, in urgent cases, a shorter healing period of two weeks, using rapid-absorbing stitches, has been successfully implemented.

Hymenoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at repairing or reconstructing the hymen, often for cultural, religious, or personal reasons. At The Intimate Makeover, Dr. Helen Otteno provides a respectful and private environment to ensure that each patient feels comfortable and supported throughout the process.

Post-Surgery Care
Aftercare and Expectations
Following hymenoplasty, it is crucial to abstain from inserting anything into the vagina until the patient is ready for the hymen to be broken. This is to ensure the integrity of the repair and to maximize the success rate of the procedure.
