During the course of the procedure, your skin will be lifted from the pubic mound, decreasing the distance between the xiphoid process and vulvar commissure. As a result, the angle of the vulva is changed and the clitoris is more exposed. Many women attribute their postoperative sexual enjoyment to this minor course correction to the vulva.
