Synopsis: 

Private Parts is a raw, intimate, and emotionally powerful documentary that dares to go where the medical system—and media—rarely tread: inside the lives of women seeking vaginal surgery, not for vanity, but for relief.

At the heart of the film is Dr. Michael Reed, a world-leading cosmetic and functional gynecologist who has made it his mission to treat the kinds of pain most people are too afraid to speak about. Every week, women from around the world arrive at his Florida clinic with quiet desperation—some with torn labia from childbirth, others scarred by trauma or past surgeries gone wrong, and many living with persistent discomfort, numbness, or deep emotional distress.

We follow three courageous women as they step into Dr. Reed’s care. Their reasons are unique, but their silence has been the same. Through deeply personal consultations, vulnerable pre-op moments, and transformative surgeries, we witness what it takes to confront not only physical pain—but the shame wrapped around it.

At the center of their healing is REVIV, Dr. Reed’s groundbreaking reconstructive technique designed to restore function, sensitivity, and self-confidence. These procedures are not cosmetic enhancements—they are acts of recovery.

But the story doesn’t end there. As Dr. Reed works to train surgeons around the world, he’s building a movement—challenging outdated perceptions of women’s intimate health and advocating for a future where healing is never mistaken for vanity.

Interwoven with expert insights from psychologists, OB-GYNs, sex educators, trauma therapists, and cultural critics, the documentary asks: Why do we treat women’s suffering as a private matter? Why is their pain so often dismissed? And what does it say about our culture when the desire to feel whole becomes a source of shame?
