If a torn or stretched hymen is affecting your peace of mind, cultural expectations, or personal confidence, hymenoplasty surgery may help. This procedure is designed to reconstruct the hymen using your own tissue, restoring its natural appearance and providing reassurance for important personal moments.
Hymenoplasty (hymen repair surgery) delicately reconstructs the hymen by suturing remaining tissue edges, creating a natural-looking restoration that typically tears upon first intercourse, just like an intact hymen. At Alonzo Cosmetic Surgery, our experienced surgeons perform this procedure with complete discretion and sensitivity to your personal needs.
Hymenoplasty in the Philippines (also called Hymen Repair Surgery), is a surgical procedure in which the anatomy of a woman’s hymen is restored back to its original tightened and enclosed state. The hymen is a ring-like skin membrane that sits in the lower third of the vagina, which partially seals the opening. Most often, there is a 5 to 6 pointed star opening in the hymen after maturity. The opening stays that way unless otherwise changed by any action or circumstance that tears or breaks the hymen and possibly leads to laxit
The most common cause of tearing in the hymen is from intercourse but other non-sexual activities such as sports, exercising, athletics, dancing, and other accidents can also contribute. The movements made can stretch the tissues in the vagina as well as separate the muscles which causes the opening to become loose. Most often there is pain and bleeding at the time of the tearing, but in some cases, there is none and some women actually do not even know their hymen has been ruptured.
Hymenoplasty in the Philippines has been gaining traction in social media and other media platforms especially in the past years. Despite its rather delicate nature, there are more people talking about it online, albeit still with more caution than normally given, and understandably so. Nevertheless, the benefits it provides women, and to a certain extent, other people in their lives, is enough reason to understand its popularity.
An important fact to note in hymen repair surgery is that it is not for every woman client. Dr. Benjamin Alonzo and Dr. Benz Alonzo, our surgeons at Alonzo Cosmetic Surgery, require consultations with our clients to make sure of their fit for the surgery, physically and mentally.

Hymenoplasty surgery is performed under local anesthesia. Dissolvable stitches will be used to reconnect the skin membrane that once partially covered the opening of the vagina. These sutures heals the membrane and leads to regrowth of tissues, closing and even tightening the opening, ultimately bringing back the original physical state of the hymen of a star-shaped ring. Tissue dissection will be applied to prevent small blood vessels from bleeding. Hymenoplasty in the Philippines is performed under local anesthetic with or without sedation, as an outpatient procedure. Length of the procedure lasts about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Recovery time usually takes about 6 weeks. For better and healthier healing, take note of the following information about what to expect, what to do next, and how to do recovery the right way.
Downtime usually takes 6 weeks with Hymenoplasty surgery. Once healing is done, one can expect an intact and naturally looking hymen, indeed mirroring its original physical appearance and state. If a client engages in intercourse (after observing the recommended duration for abstinence), the hymen essentially tears again and some pain is felt and bleeding occurs like it was during the “first time”.
