Let’s be honest, some topics are hard to discuss. If you are experiencing discomfort, changes in the anal area, or concerns about appearance after childbirth, aging, or injury, know this: you are not alone. You have options.
Enter Tushy Touch Up™, a specialized anal restoration procedure by Dr. Erin King-Mullins, a board-certified colorectal surgeon in Atlanta. This outpatient procedure is designed to restore comfort, tone, and confidence by addressing both the function and appearance of the anal area.
What Is the Tushy Touch Up™?
Tushy Touch Up™ is a minimally invasive, outpatient procedure that corrects functional issues and aesthetic changes in the anal region. Whether due to childbirth, aging, hemorrhoids, or prior surgery, this procedure is designed to:
- Improve hygiene and daily comfort
- Remove excess skin and skin tags
- Reduce discomfort, itching, or irritation
- Address laxity and discoloration
Unlike procedures performed at med spas, the Tushy Touch Up™ is performed in a licensed surgical center with appropriate anesthesia and post-op care. This is not “bleaching in a back room”, this is expert care, provided by a leading colorectal surgeon near you.
Why Do People Get Anal Restoration?
Over time, the anal area can be affected by:
- Childbirth or trauma
- Prior surgery
- Hemorrhoids or fissures
- Excess skin or sagging
- Discoloration or irregular texture
These changes can lead to discomfort, hygiene issues, or feelings of self-consciousness, especially during intimacy. The Tushy Touch Up™ procedure helps address these concerns, improving both daily comfort and self-confidence.
What Happens During the Procedure?
Performed under local anesthesia and sedation, the procedure typically takes 45 minutes to an hour. Dr. King-Mullins focuses on:
- Removing excess skin or irregular tissue
- Smoothing and refining skin texture
- Reducing discoloration (including bleaching for qualified candidates)
While anal bleaching may be part of the outcome, it’s not the main purpose. Dr. King-Mullins prioritizes restoration over aesthetics alone, with lasting functional improvements.
What is Recovery Like?
Most patients are sore for about 1–2 weeks but manage pain with over-the-counter medications like Tylenol or Advil. Here’s what to expect:
- No driving or intense activity for about 2 weeks
- Return to work (depending on your role) in 1–2 weeks
- Full healing and resolution of swelling around 6–8 weeks
- A follow-up appointment will be scheduled to monitor recovery

This procedure may be ideal if you’re experiencing:
- Loose skin or skin tags around the anus
- Discomfort or hygiene challenges after hemorrhoids or childbirth
- Anal itching, irritation, or soreness
- Changes in tone or appearance due to aging or injury
- Concerns about appearance impacting intimacy or confidence
