Hymen repair in Melbourne.
Dr Kishen Nara consults on hymen repair at the Chadstone rooms in Melbourne, with alternate consult dates at Chelsea Heights for patients in the bayside and south-east. Bookings are arranged confidentially by Cate or Jenny, and a Zoom consultation can be the first appointment if you would prefer.
The conversation
A private consultation, on your terms
A hymen repair consultation with Dr Nara in Melbourne is private and unhurried. Bookings are handled by Cate or Jenny, both female members of our team, and the rooms are kept quiet around the time of the appointment. Some patients prefer a Zoom consultation as their first appointment — particularly if walking into the rooms cold would feel difficult; that is straightforward to arrange.
When the in-person consultation happens, it is held in a separate examination room with a chaperone present. The conversation comes first, the examination second, and the discussion of options third. You do not have to disclose reasons; you do not have to justify the procedure to us. You will be asked, gently, what you are considering and what outcome would feel like enough — because those are the questions a doctor needs answers to in order to advise honestly.
A formal cooling-off period applies between consultation and any cosmetic procedure, in line with Medical Board of Australia guidelines. A second medical opinion is encouraged at any stage.
Coming to Chadstone
A practical note on the rooms
The Chadstone rooms sit inside the shopping centre precinct, which has on-site parking throughout. The consultation rooms are away from the public footfall, and the waiting area is quiet. Patients travel to Chadstone from across Melbourne — Malvern East, Toorak, Armadale, South Yarra, Hawthorn, Camberwell, Kew, Richmond, Carlton, Caulfield, Glen Iris, Glen Waverley, Mount Waverley, Box Hill, Doncaster, Ringwood, Brighton, Hampton and Sandringham — and find Chadstone accessible by road and by public transport.
For patients closer to the bayside and south-east — Chelsea, Chelsea Heights, Carrum, Patterson Lakes, Bonbeach, Edithvale, Aspendale, Mordialloc, Mentone, Cheltenham, Seaford, Frankston and the wider Mornington Peninsula — the alternate Chelsea Heights consult location is sometimes a shorter trip. The procedure range and the consultation process are the same at both addresses.
Procedures themselves are performed at accredited Australian hospital facilities. The hospital varies depending on procedure scheduling and your individual circumstances; Dr Nara will discuss this with you at consultation.
The procedure, in brief
Hymen repair, plainly explained
Hymenoplasty (hymen repair) is surgery to restore the structural tissues of the hymen. The technique used depends on individual anatomy and the patient's specific circumstances; Dr Nara will explain the options at consultation. The procedure is generally performed under general anaesthesia at an accredited Australian hospital facility.
A full clinical overview, including the risks specific to hymen repair, is on the hymen repair pillar page. The hymen repair patient resources hub carries the longer-form companion notes on what the consultation involves, what recovery looks like, and the cultural and personal context many patients carry into the conversation.
Cosmetic surgery carries risks — including bleeding, infection, scarring and the possibility of an unsatisfactory outcome or revision. These are discussed openly at consultation, in the context of your circumstances. The risks of surgery page gives a fuller factual overview.
