Dr. Neetu Nirdosh has warned of the many side effects associated with a new trend in cosmetic gynaecology which sees fillers injected into the genitalia. 

The doctor has revealed that she has been inundated with requests for genital enhancements which she deems “risky” and “unneccessary”.

The treatment in question involves dermal fillers being injected into the labia for a youthful, plumped effect.

Dr. Nirdosh told the MailOnline: “Simply put, a lot of women want a ‘young vagina’.

“They don’t like the aesthetic look of a saggy, deflated, floppy vagina and see cosmetic dermal fillers as a saviour.”

However, the medic warned that the risks associated with this procedure include nerve paralysis, bleeding, swelling and loss of sensation during sex.

She advised: “To put it simply, the vagina might look prettier afterwards but it won’t be worth it if it doesn’t work in the long term – that is the risk you are taking.”
