Calgary Vaginoplasty Specialist

Laser vaginoplasty (sometimes called laser vaginal rejuvenation treatment or laser perineoplasty) is a vaginal surgery that uses a laser or radiofrequency tool to reduce the diameter of the vaginal opening (introitus) and build up and strengthen the perineal body (the area between the vagina and anus). Women opt for a vaginal rejuvenation procedure to modify the appearance of the vagina to bring it back to the way it was before they had children. Women also choose this procedure to address changes in sexual sensation, pleasure and satisfaction as it makes the vagina feel tighter and improves frictional forces during intercourse. Laser vaginoplasty can also remove excess tissue around the vaginal opening and in other areas near the vagina.

Many women feel that “things have changed” since having children. This may be a change in sexual sensation, reduced sexual satisfaction or less enjoyable sexual relations with your partner. Some women feel that the vagina is more open and feels looser since they’ve had children or just as part of the aging process which results in loss of tissue collagen and strength. Some women may naturally have less vaginal tightness than they would like, or may feel the appearance of the vaginal opening is too large and open or there is extra tissue that bothers them. A laser vaginal rejuvenation treatment can help with all of these concerns.

The Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Treatment

Dr. Allan is certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and has been performing vaginoplasty in Calgary for many years. He originally trained in Beverly Hills, California in 2001 to learn his unique laser methods and has performed over a thousand procedures since then. Dr. Allan is a specialist in labial and vaginal surgery and he is the most experienced vaginoplasty surgeon in not only Calgary, but Canada.

This approach to vaginal rejuvenation surgery results in minimal recovery time and minimal risks. Laser vaginoplasty is performed with local anaesthetic to avoid a longer recovery time and the risks associated with general anaesthetic. With a local anaesthetic, patients are able to drive themselves to and from their appointment. Vaginoplasty takes about an hour to perform and uses either a laser or radiofrequency device to access the large muscles that encircle the opening of the vagina. Stitches are used to bring the muscles back together and narrow the vaginal opening. Laser vaginoplasty is a very safe operation and risks are very minimal.

Recovery from Vaginoplasty Surgery

After a vaginoplasty, you should not experience discomfort for roughly four to six hours, before the local anaesthetic wears off. This gives you time to get comfortable at home. Most women find it uncomfortable enough to need strong medications for the next 24 hours after that. We provide you with two different kinds of medications as well as an ice pack and recommend you take the medications regularly for the first 24 hours. After that, many women find the amount of medication they need is gradually reduced. On average, you can expect to take three to four days off work or school in order to recover. You should also reduce activity significantly for the first two weeks following a vaginal rejuvenation surgery and wait a full six weeks before returning to full activities. The stitches dissolve on their own and do not need to be removed manually.

Results of Vaginal Surgery

It is important that your vaginoplasty surgeon is fully trained and experienced in this type of delicate and intimate procedure. Dr. Allan is a gynecologist specially trained in vaginal surgery and has been performing them successfully for over 20 years. We will be happy to show you before and after photos of previous procedures when you come in for your consultation.

If you would like to discuss a laser vaginal rejuvenation treatment or vaginoplasty surgery with Dr. Allan, please book an appointment today. Both in-office and phone consultations are available. All our consultations are free and there is no obligation.

At the Allan Centre, we understand this is a sensitive issue and we want every woman who comes here to feel comfortable discussing her personal concerns.

I went to see dr allan for a labiaplasty and from the consultation to the procedure itself was great. During the consultation I addressed my concerns about the procedure and we came up with a solution that would make me feel as comfortable as possible. I was pleased at how fast I was able to make an appointment for the surgery. The day of the surgery was great, I arrived on time and the nurses were ready for me. I want to say a special thanks to Brittany as she was an absolute delight to talk with and explaining things to me the whole way. I strong believe that It’s important to have a kind and compassionate nurse/team beside you during these surgery’s. if anyone is thinking of getting this done but is maybe afraid like I was, just know there’s an amazing group at dr Allans and they go out of their way to take great care of you. The procedure was practically pain free too.Very clean and modern facility.

I am extremely pleased with Dr Allan and his team. From the moment I met him, in tears I might add- he was comforting yet professional. Anything related to females and their insecurities is such a delicate topic and I felt at ease the entire time. Melissa was great, straight forward and felt like i was talking to an old girlfriend. She cheered me on and wiped my tears away.I had my surgery last Friday. The facility was clean and the nurses there were like no one I’ve ever met in my life. I was terrified, riddled with anxiety and they had a way of calming me through normal conversation and cracking jokes. Who would have thought I would be laughing preparing for a surgery. I was comfortable the entire time, Dr Allan explained what was happening throughout the entire surgery and it was over before I knew it.I have text him a few times to follow up on concerns, some of which I felt I knew the answer to but hearing his response somehow put me at ease. For a doctor to give you his cell phone number and to reply instantly both times, to me is amazing. I am sure I overreact and message him things I probably don’t need to, but he never makes me feel like I am a burden.Healing has been easier than I thought pain wise and I am extremely excited to see how everything looks once I am healed.If you have ANY insecurities, I highly recommend Dr. Allan and his team.Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me get through my biggest insecurity.Ashley

The staff here is incredible. Melissa felt like my long-lost friend the entire time we were in contact on the phone, and she was also holding my hand while I had my minor surgery done. Such great energy! The office itself was warm and inviting and very clean.Dr. Allan was very professional and pleasant. He explained everything to me before the procedure was done and was very patient with my questions. Two weeks after my procedure I was feeling uncertain about how I was healing and I texted his cel phone with my concerns. He responded immediately and definitely put my mind at ease.After surgery they explained everything to me regarding the healing process, what I should and should not do, and they sent me home with medications, some supplies to help me heal better, and a little package with the doctor's cel number.Even my 6-week follow-up visit yesterday was a positive experience. Dr. Allan assured me that I was healing well and that if anything happened that made me concerend, I just need to call them and make an appointment to be seen.Overall, I'm thoroughly impressed and satisfied!😊

My experience surpassed expectations from the first contact, process appointments, procedure and aftercare. Dr. Allan and the staff (*especially Melissa) were discreet, understanding, readily available and sympathetic to my needs.

I was almost too nervous and self conscious to even make the initial call to the Allan Centre, but I'm so glad I did. Melissa made every step of the process as simple and comfortable as possible - it's clear that she cares deeply about improving women's lives, and is genuinely excited for her clients. Doctor Allan is a knowledgeable, friendly, and talented surgeon, and I highly recommend him. I'm so happy with my results.

I highly recommend to any women or mothers who are having any kind of incontinence issues to see Dr Allan. I went to the women's clinic for a couple years and was not getting the results I wanted. I went to see Dr Allan, was told my options, got booked in for surgery. It's now been a month since my surgery and when I went for my follow up today I asked the doctor if I could hug him. I feel like a grown woman again. It sucks there is so many women out there dealing with this, but there is a hero and his name is Dr Allan. He was amazing prior to surgery making me feel more comfortable, his staff was amazing as well. I am ecstatic I got this surgery!!

This clinic is amazing, from the first phone call to Mellissa getting me in within days, to the actual procedure itself. The nurses were incredible checking on me every minute and making sure that I was comfortable and had everything that I needed. They stayed beside me the entire procedure and made sure I was okay the entire time. The clinic was clean and organized, there was nothing out of place during the procedure. Dr. Allan was nothing short of amazing, he made sure everything was what i wanted before he started. I texted Dr. Allan many times during my recovery as i have a pre-existing condition. He responded by calling and following up with text messages within minutes, even on the weekends. He checked in daily with me after, he was calm, courteous and knowledgeable. The procedure itself was painless, completely numb feeling nothing, not even tugging. I would highly recommend this clinic and the staff.

I cannot say enough about the amazing treatment I received at the Allan Center! From my first contact with Melissa at the office, to booking my appointment, the surgery and in the aftercare; everything was exactly how I expected it to be. Absolutely first class and professional. My results were great. Let’s be honest, I did have discomfort and concerns afterwards; but Dr Allan made himself available to answer my questions and make me feel at ease. And as a result of the perioneoplasty, my sensation is greatly improved, and sex feels so much better!

You’re spoken to with compassion, you are asked about your comfort level and are given warm blankets should you need them. You are in extremely good hands, Dr. Bruce Allan and his staff are attentively eager to give you exactly what it is that you need. This is directly reflected in his work which is undoubtably the best I have ever seen in all of my experience.Dr. Bruce Allan makes himself readily available before surgery, during and immediately after and throughout the weeks of recovery.No question is a silly question. They’re all answered immediately and professionally. Overall, was one the best positive changes I have ever had the opportunity to make!To the Allan Centre:“I want you know that you have added to my life in immeasurable ways. I will always think of your benevolence; and speak of you all with kind words. I finally feel free to heal and to truly enjoy my body. Thank you all so much for all that you do and thank you for having such a positive impact on my life and I’m most certain, many others.”We are constantly making changes to our lives daily, whether it be cosmetic, medical, mental, emotional financial etc. let’s embrace each other and make them positive as the centre has done for me. #womenwhoempowerwomen #empoweroneanother #selfcare #selflove #labiaplasty #yourbodyyourchoice #postivestepforward #embraceyourbodyAnderson.
