Perineoplasty at Oshun · Kingston, Jamaica

Reconstruction.
Of the perineum.

Perineoplasty at Oshun is performed by Dr. Charles Rockhead — a surgical procedure that repairs and tightens the perineum (the area between the vaginal opening and the anus), typically after childbirth or for vaginal laxity. Often performed together with vaginoplasty.

Four things that are true of every visit

Care by an OB/GYN

Every procedure at Oshun is reviewed and led by a board-certified Obstetrician and Gynaecologist. Dr. Rockhead is a physician first — the same one who treats women's health on the other side of his practice.

30 years caring for women

Three decades as a practicing OB/GYN at Amadeo Medical Group, the parent clinical practice. Every Perineoplasty plan is reviewed by a physician who has cared for women through pregnancy, surgery, perimenopause, and post-natal recovery.

Written plan first

Every Perineoplasty patient leaves consultation with a written plan: areas, technique, timing, recovery, cost. Returning patients refine the same plan rather than starting from scratch every visit.

Conservative, considered

Oshun's approach favours conservative, considered care over aggressive intervention. Decisions are made in conversation with you, options are presented in plain language, and consent is informed at every step.

The honest version

Why perineoplasty sometimes disappoints.

Perineoplasty disappoints when the underlying concern was vaginal-canal laxity (which perineoplasty alone doesn't address) or when patients still planning vaginal deliveries undergo it prematurely.

Perineoplasty addresses the perineal floor; vaginoplasty addresses the vaginal canal. Patients whose primary symptom is perceived vaginal looseness are usually better served by combined vaginoplasty-plus-perineoplasty than by perineoplasty alone. Diagnosing which structures are contributing is the main job of the consultation.

The other consideration is timing relative to future pregnancies. As with vaginoplasty, vaginal delivery after perineoplasty can undo the repair. The procedure is typically deferred until childbearing is complete.

At Oshun, we don't run that model. Perineoplasty here is physician-led from consultation through follow-up, with a written plan in your hands and a follow-up visit on the calendar before you leave.

A Perineoplasty visit at Oshun follows a clear sequence — from consultation through the procedure itself through follow-up. Here is what happens, step by step.

i.

Consultation

Before any Perineoplasty is scheduled, you meet Dr. Rockhead in person at 9 Devon Road. He reviews your medical history, examines you as appropriate, and explains the options — including the option not to proceed. You leave with a clear written plan and a quote.

ii.

Preparation

Stop blood thinners 7–10 days before where medically safe. No sexual activity or douching for 1 week before. Pre-op labs and medical clearance.

iii.

The perineoplasty procedure

Under anaesthesia, Dr. Rockhead excises redundant perineal skin and approximates the underlying perineal body musculature. Closure is in layers with absorbable sutures. When combined with vaginoplasty, both procedures are performed in sequence in the same operative session. Takes 45–90 minutes.

iv.

Recovery & follow-up

Ice packs for 48 hours. Prescribed analgesics, antiseptic regimen, and stool softeners. Avoid sexual activity for 6 weeks. Wound check at 1 week, healing at 2–3 weeks, clearance at 6 weeks, final outcome at 3 months.

Is Perineoplasty right for you

Who gets the most out of Perineoplasty at Oshun.

Perineoplasty isn't a one-size category — the right approach depends on your specific situation. Below are common patient profiles we see. If one sounds like you, an in-person consultation at 9 Devon Road is the next step.

Post-vaginal-delivery

Repair after one or more vaginal deliveries

The most common indication: women who finished childbearing and notice a gaping introitus, perineal scarring, or perineal laxity since vaginal delivery.

Episiotomy-scar repair

Discomfort from prior episiotomy scar

Patients with painful or tender prior episiotomy scars can have the scar revised as part of perineoplasty.

Combined cosmetic gynaecology

Combined with vaginoplasty

Vaginoplasty plus perineoplasty in the same operative session is the most comprehensive single-session intervention for post-childbirth changes.

Dyspareunia

Painful intercourse from perineal scarring

Patients with chronic painful intercourse attributable to perineal scarring sometimes find perineoplasty resolves the symptom when other approaches haven't.

Every Perineoplasty patient at Oshun starts with a consultation. Twenty minutes, in-person at 9 Devon Road, with Dr. Rockhead. No procedure is scheduled, no quote is signed, no pressure either way. You leave with a plan and a price — or you leave with neither.

The honest answers

Nine questions every nervous first-timer asks.

Open any of them. We've written each answer the way Dr. Rockhead would actually say it — not the way a brochure would.

What's the difference between perineoplasty and vaginoplasty?
Perineoplasty repairs the perineum. Vaginoplasty tightens the vaginal canal itself. They are often combined.
Can perineoplasty be done right after childbirth?
Many women do not need perineoplasty after childbirth — the body heals adequately. Elective perineoplasty is reserved for those with residual concerns once initial healing is complete (usually 6–12 months postpartum).
Will perineoplasty affect future pregnancies?
Vaginal delivery after perineoplasty can undo the repair. Typically deferred until childbearing is complete; Caesarean is the usual recommendation if pregnancy occurs after.
How long is recovery after perineoplasty?
5–7 days off work, no sexual activity / tampons / swimming for 6 weeks, full healing by 3 months.
Is perineoplasty painful?
Painless under anaesthesia. Post-operative discomfort moderate for the first few days, managed with prescribed analgesics. Ice packs and stool softeners support comfortable healing.
Can perineoplasty fix episiotomy scarring?
Yes — painful or tender prior episiotomy scars can be revised as part of perineoplasty.
What are the risks of perineoplasty?
Bleeding, infection, wound dehiscence, scar discomfort, dyspareunia (if over-tightened), rarely changes in bowel function.
Is perineoplasty covered by insurance?
Cosmetic perineoplasty is not covered. Documented functional indications may qualify for partial coverage.
How do I book a perineoplasty consultation at Oshun?
Booking is a two-step process: a private consultation first with examination and discussion of combined options, then surgery scheduling. WhatsApp (876) 676-6297.
Two paths from here

One conversation away.

Perineoplasty is often part of a broader post-childbirth repair plan. The consultation is where the contributing structures get identified, the right combination of procedures gets chosen, and the recovery plan gets written.
