Robotic-Assisted Peritoneal Flap Vaginoplasty
Dr. Jun offers Robotic-Assisted Peritoneal Flap Vaginoplasty in both primary and repair cases (e.g. vaginal stenosis), and care for post-operative urethral complications. Peritoneal Vaginoplasty has the potential to offer a number of benefits:
- Safety; lower risk of complications such as rectal fistula and prolapse
- More vaginal depth
- Requires less dilation, less douching
- Requires less pre-op hair removal
- Self-lubricating lining with some elasticity
- May be less risky than Sigmoid Colon Vaginoplasty, plus no odorous mucus discharge and no need to monitor colon pathology
Robotic-Assisted Peritoneal Vaginoplasty reduces operative time by facilitating a dual-surgeon abdominal-perineal approach, lowering the risks associated with positioning-related complications, such as neuropathy.
Dr. Jun also offers Simple Orchiectomy to remove one or both testicles. Orchiectomy can be performed separately and before Vaginoplasty or it can be included with other procedures.

Metoidioplasty: From Simple Release to Full Metoidioplasty, your surgery can include any combination of Vaginectomy, Urethral Lengthening and Scrotoplasty. Some Metoidioplasty patients may benefit from a Monsplasty, or mons resection, which can help better position the phallus and scrotum.
Phalloplasty: Dr. Jun uses either the forearm (RFF) or thigh (ALT) donor sites. RFF is typically a 2-stage surgery, with implants put in at the second stage. ALT can be a 2- or 3-stage surgery, depending on the vascularity of the donor flap.
Testicular and/or Erectile Implants: Can be done 9 months after Metoidioplasty or Phalloplasty with Scrotoplasty. Dr. Jun uses solid silicone testicular implants made by Alpha Aesthetics, and the malleable rod or 3-piece inflatable penile implants.
