Yang Gwi-bi Surgery

A vaginoplasty that uses medical-grade silicone beads to add contour to the vaginal wall

Yang Gwi-bi Surgery, also called myeonggi surgery, is a vaginoplasty that uses silicone beads to give a flat vaginal wall more contour.

We decide where to place the beads according to the length and width of the vagina, and insert them in even numbers – two or four at a time. The size is chosen from a range of 3 mm to 17 mm, and the beads can be removed if necessary. It is done under sedation, takes about 30 minutes, and you go home the same day.

Why UROGYN reshapes the vaginal wall with Yang Gwi-bi Surgery

The more contour the vagina has, the more pleasure a male partner feels.

Yang Gwi-bi Surgery POINT 1

A more raised vaginal wall does not automatically mean stronger stimulation.

Only when the beads are placed to suit the structure of the vagina does the wall gain real contour, giving broader stimulation and greater sensation.

Yang Gwi-bi Surgery POINT 2

To preserve sensation, UROGYN places the beads away from the G-spot.

The G-spot is one of a woman's main erogenous zones, and placing artificial material there can actually interfere with touch.

AFTERCARE

After Yang Gwi-bi Surgery

  1. The day after surgery

    Start sitz baths from the next day.

    • Fill a basin with lukewarm (slightly cool) water deep enough to cover your bottom, dissolve a 500-won-coin-sized amount of Clinosan cleansing solution in it, and take a 10-minute sitz bath morning and evening. It is best to continue for 2 weeks.
    • You will be prescribed medication for 5–7 days. If you have heartburn, retching or nausea, stop taking it at once and call us.
  2. 2–3 days

    You may have some pain in the surgical area.

    If there is bleeding, contact us straight away.

  3. After 1 week

    Use Gyno-Betadine vaginal suppositories.

    From 1 week after surgery, use Gyno-Betadine vaginal suppositories, and wear a panty liner, as the suppositories may cause discharge.

  4. Weeks 2 and 4

    Come in to the clinic for a progress check.

    The visit date may change depending on your condition.

  5. 4–6 weeks

    You can have sex 4–6 weeks after surgery, once the doctor has checked your condition.

  6. Daily life

    Please follow these guidelines in daily life.

    • Avoid alcohol, smoking, public baths and saunas for 4 weeks. You may shower from the next day.
    • Avoid anything that puts stimulation or pressure on the surgical area (touching it directly, strenuous exercise, squatting, lifting heavy objects and so on), as the beads could come out.
  7. When to call us

    Call the clinic if you have a strong feeling of heat, chills, itching, pain, swelling or hives.
