- A treatment method that leaves minimal visible scars for a beautiful finish
- Enhance sensitivity by stimulating the clitoris, a key erogenous zone
- Exposing the hidden clitoris improves odor, itching, and pain.
After practicing insurance-covered medicine in general obstetrics and gynecology, including infertility treatment and perinatal care, I shifted my career to private practice and gynecological aesthetics driven by my own experience battling illness and the desire to “support women in enjoying their femininity throughout life.” Grounded in deep anatomical knowledge and technical skill, I address women's health challenges with "authentic femtech"—procedures like gynecological plastic surgery, Vaginal Rejuvenation® injections, and vaginal hyaluronic acid injections—backed by medical evidence. She is dedicated to social activities promoting sex education, HPV vaccine awareness, and improving women's quality of life. She actively contributes to medical knowledge dissemination, including authoring Chapter 7, "Vaginal Hyaluronic Acid Injections," in the specialized textbook The Fundamentals of Cosmetic Surgery: The First Book to Read When Becoming a Cosmetic Surgeon.
Delivering the joy and happiness of being a woman! Experience a fulfilling life with BIANCA's vaginal healthcare.
When you hear the term "phimosis," you might think it's a male concern. In fact, women can also experience a condition called clitoral phimosis.
"Touching my clitoris during sex hurts," "I can't climax through my clitoris," "Even when I wash my intimate area carefully, it still has an unpleasant odor." If you're experiencing these concerns, you may have clitoral hood phimosis. You might also be wondering, "Is this clitoral condition normal?"
Dr. Akiko Miyamoto, an expert in female genital procedures and knowledge, oversees gynecological plastic surgery at BIANCA CLINIC. She is the only physician in the world* certified by Medytox as an instructor for vaginal hyaluronic acid injections.
To provide world-class femtech medical care, our clinic actively incorporates advanced approaches. If you have concerns about your intimate area, please consult Bianca Clinic. We will support you in resolving your worries and insecurities.

CHARACTERISTICSClitoral hood
Clitoral hood syndrome refers to a condition where the skin called the hood, located on the outside of the clitoris, covers the clitoris. Surgery to remove the hood, making the clitoris easier to expose, is called clitoral hood reduction surgery.
During childhood, the clitoris is covered by a hood. As the body develops, the hood typically retracts. However, some individuals retain a hood that does not retract even into adulthood, leaving the clitoris concealed.
When the clitoris is covered by the foreskin, it can be difficult to keep clean, which may cause odor or itching. It can also make it harder to feel pleasure from the clitoris, leading to decreased sensitivity.
However, since the foreskin also serves to protect the clitoris from friction and external stimuli, it is essential to determine the appropriate extent of removal. Excessive removal can conversely lead to decreased sensitivity.
The Function of the Clitoris
A fulfilling sex life also deepens relationships.
Sex is not just about pleasure; it's also one of the important ways to deepen relationships and express affection. Therefore, unsatisfying sex may be hindering communication.
Many women are dissatisfied with their sex lives, reporting experiences such as "I've never reached orgasm" or "I've pretended to reach orgasm."
To enhance sexual satisfaction, it's important to make it easier to experience pleasure. The clitoris is a specialized area for sensation, and caring for it is essential for a fulfilling sex life.
However, pain or discomfort during sex isn't always caused solely by the clitoris. That's precisely why consulting a physician with specialized knowledge is key. If you have concerns about your female genitalia or your sex life, please consult Bianca Clinic, where gynecologists are available.
Benefits
MERIT
A surgical technique that leaves minimal scarring and produces beautiful results
You may choose the suture-free Insuture method, which uses dissolvable thread for the midline suturing technique. This surgical procedure leaves minimal scarring.
Eliminate the causes of anorgasmia and guide you to orgasm
When the clitoris, a highly sensitive erogenous zone, is covered by the clitoral hood, it can be difficult to achieve pleasure. In some cases, surgical exposure can increase sensitivity.
It can also improve unpleasant odors and itching.
When covered by skin, dirt and sweat can easily accumulate, potentially causing odor and inflammation. Treatment makes it easier to keep the area clean.

RECOMMENDED POINTS
Take a look at your private parts in the mirror.
You can examine your vulva yourself using a mirror. We encourage you to do so at least once. When touching your genitals, wash your hands beforehand to prevent infections. Also, if your nails are long, take care not to injure your clitoris or labia minora.
There are two types of clitoral hood: true clitoral hood and pseudo-clitoral hood. You can easily check this yourself. Here's how to check for clitoral hood—please give it a try.
① Place your fingers on either side of the clitoris.
② Spread your fingers out to the sides.
③ Pull your fingers toward your abdomen.
Pull back the foreskin. If the clitoris is exposed, it's a pseudo-phimosis; if not, it's a true phimosis.
The growing interest in beauty has made female genitalia aesthetics popular.
As more women incorporate care routines that maintain beautiful skin from the root, not just makeup, attention is also growing toward intimate area care.
Have you ever heard the terms femcare or femtech? Femcare is a portmanteau combining Feminine and Care. On the other hand, femtech is a portmanteau combining Female and Technology.
Both terms refer to maintaining female genital health, but femtech involves a technology-based approach, while femcare encompasses a broader range of approaches.
At Bianca, we offer gynecological plastic surgery and vaginal medicine under the title “FemBianca.” We provide a variety of treatments, ranging from injectable therapies like vaginal hyaluronic acid injections and Vaginal Education® injections, to plastic surgeries such as vaginal wall reconstruction and labia minora reduction, as well as contraceptive procedures.
Only female staff handle femcare, so you can feel at ease.
At Bianca Clinic, our gynecological plastic surgery and vaginal medicine services are exclusively handled by female staff to make it easier for women to discuss concerns about their intimate areas. We strive to provide examinations with privacy in mind, so please feel free to visit us with peace of mind.
Whether you're wondering "What kinds of treatments are available?" or struggling with "I can't seem to enjoy sex," we welcome any concerns you may have. Please feel free to visit Bianca Clinic for a consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Clitoral Hood
Q&A
Is leaving clitoral hood phimosis untreated problematic? Should I get surgery?
Clitoral hood syndrome is not a disease. Therefore, surgery is not always necessary. However, if the clitoris is painful or inflamed, clitoral hood reduction surgery may alleviate these symptoms.
Is clitoral hood reduction surgery a painful procedure?
Since anesthesia is used during surgery, there is little need to worry about feeling pain during clitoral hood reduction. If you are concerned about pain, additional anesthesia options are available; please feel free to discuss this with us. Additionally, pain medication is prescribed for the postoperative period.
What are the downtime and risks associated with clitoral hood reduction?
Following clitoral hood reduction surgery, swelling, edema, bruising, and pain during urination may occur. These symptoms will gradually subside over approximately two weeks post-surgery.
Will the scar from clitoral hood surgery be noticeable? How much will it fade?
The visibility of scars varies depending on the surgical technique chosen. With the sutureless method, scars tend to be relatively inconspicuous. We will discuss your preferences, so please feel free to consult with your doctor. Scars typically subside within about one month.
When can I take a shower or bath after clitoral hood surgery?
Depending on your post-operative condition, showering is possible starting the day after the procedure. For bathing, we recommend waiting 2 weeks after the procedure if no sutures were removed, and 1 month after the procedure if sutures were removed.
When can I resume sexual activity after clitoral hood surgery?
Depending on your post-operative condition, we recommend waiting two weeks after the procedure to resume sexual activity if sutures were not removed, and one month if sutures were removed. For detailed precautions, such as avoiding contact with the female genitalia, please consult your physician.
