Circumcision
Female
-
This consists of removal and/or surgery of various parts of the female genitals, typically one or more of
removal of the clitoral hood (Clitoridotomy),
removal of the clitoris (Clitoridectomy) and
sewing up the vagina (Infibulation). When performed on female minors these procedures can be highly controversial.
Male
-
The removal of the foreskin for religious, social, or medical reasons (for phimosis or to reduce the chances of urinary tract infections, for example). In the west, there is controversy over this procedure when performed on male minors for reasons other than immediate therapeutic need.[1]
Elective genital alteration
In some cases, people elect to have their genitals pierced, tattooed or otherwise altered for aesthetic or other reasons.
Such modifications run the gamut from single to multiple piercings, small decorative marks to complete tattooing, urethral relocation, and, in males, subincision or even complete bisection.
Female genital modification surgery
Female genital enhancement
surgery includes
laser resurfacing of the labia to remove
wrinkles and clitoral repositioning for those not achieving optimum stimulation as well as
labiaplasty and
vaginal tightening.
A designer vagina is a cosmetic surgery procedure and the result of that procedure. The procedure is also known as labiaplasty (a reduction of the labia minora, the flaps of skin which form the lips of a woman's genitalia and cover the clitoris and vaginal opening) and vaginal tightening (involving surgery on the interior of the vaginal vault). It is a type of genital modification.
