Hymenoplasty is a minor reconstructive procedure which can be performed in as little as 45 minutes. It can either be done with local anesthesia or general anesthesia, depending upon the preference of the patient.

She will create an incision on the superior margin of the hymen, remove the excess tissue, and suture the edges together. Post-surgery, she may also use suture thread-dissolving sutures for improved results.
