Abstract
Female cosmetic genital surgery (FCGS) is the latest and fastest growing sub-specialty in the broad specialty of gynecology. It encompasses procedures designed to change aesthetic and/or functional aspects of women's genitalia. In case of FCGS, there is difficulty in separating purely aesthetic concerns from medical concerns, because there is much overlap. The initial controversies over FCGS have almost settled down in the light of the mounting scientific evidence suggesting that a number of procedures that currently exist are safe, effective, and capable of treating to a considerable extent the suite of conditions associated with course-of-life vulvo-vaginal changes. Also, the rapidly expanding demands that have arisen for FCGS procedures from women across the globe have made it imperative for the reconstructive pelvic surgeons to master the cosmetic genital procedures so as to deliver the women what they want, in the most scientific manner. The issue of asking for and provisioning of FCGS is essentially a matter of individual patient and physician decision-making.
