Vaginal rejuvenation surgery is a beauty method that helps you regain your youthful age and confidence. However, in order to achieve the best beauty results, post-operative care plays a very important role. Together with Worldwide Cosmetic Hospital, let’s learn about the secrets to taking care of “her” during this period.
Wound care
The success of vaginal rejuvenation surgery depends not only on the surgeon’s expertise but also on proper post-operative care. That’s why Worldwide Cosmetic Hospital has designed an at-home care kit for post-vaginal surgery recovery, which includes:
At-home care kit contents:
- Post-operative self-care instruction sheet
- Feminine wash and saline solution
- Bandages, gauze, and daily sanitary pads
Wound self-care instructions at home:
- Use feminine wash after using the toilet.
- Use daily sanitary pads or dry liners to keep the wound dry. Change pads every 2-3 hours to prevent odor and reduce the risk of vaginal infection.
- Avoid soaking the vaginal area in water for the first 10 days.
- Do not wear tight clothing or anything too snug. This can not only cause discomfort but also odor and potential infection..
- Do not touch, scratch, or apply pressure to the vaginal area.
