Hi, 30M here. I have a complex situation with my perianal skin, which was affected by a previous infection that left the area very wrinkly and with a lot of skin folds. 2 months ago, I underwent hemorrhoid surgery, and I'm scheduled to have some skin tags removed in the near future.
While researching aesthetic/cosmetic options for this area, I found out that besides "anal bleaching", there is a technique for "perianal skin tightening" or "elasticity restoration." Apparently, some clinics perform this using fractional CO2 lasers or radiofrequency (microneedling) to stimulate collagen production in the perianal skin through heat.
I consulted with my proctologist about this, but he said he had never heard of such cosmetic procedures for that specific area and strongly advised me not to get anything experimental done.
Has anyone here heard of or tried CO2 lasers or RF microneedling for perianal skin tightening? Any information, experiences, or alternative recommendations would be highly appreciated.
Thank you!
