"A leading urogynaecologist has argued that aggressive marketing from private clinics along with growing media interest, have seen an increasing number of women requesting vaginal cosmetic procedures. However, little medical and scientific evidence exists regarding their effectiveness or safety.

It was suggested that to improve understanding of the risks and benefits of cosmetic vaginal surgery, patient-centred research is needed. Such research should incorporate factors like anxiety, depression, body image, and sexual function and the effect of surgical interventions and psychosexual counselling. Until this evidence is available, surgeons should remain cautious and operate only as a last resort."
