Clitoral Hood Reduction in Detroit, MI
What is the Clitoral Hood Reduction Procedure?
A Clitoral Hood Reduction (also called ‘clitoral hoodectomy’ or ‘clitoral hoodoplasty’) is a minimally invasive procedure to reduce excess tissue from the clitoral hood. The clitoral hood is the skin that covers and protects your clitoris. Reducing the amount of skin over the clitoris helps achieve more clitoral exposure, thus increasing sensation and sensitivity during sexual activities.
Besides heightened pleasure, a clitoral hood reduction also significantly improves the vagina’s aesthetic appearance. We use advanced laser and radiofrequency techniques that do not penetrate more than 1mm deep into the skin. This is why our cutting-edge technology promotes quick healing without any scarring.
Patients may undergo a clitoral hood reduction as a single procedure, but combining it with other complementary vaginal rejuvenation procedures is best recommended. A combination of complementary procedures provides optimal results, including symmetrical labia (Labiaplasty) and a tighter vagina (Vaginoplasty). This is why most women choose to undergo multiple vaginal rejuvenation procedures during the same appointment.
How is Clitoral Hood Reduction Performed?
Clitoral Hood Reduction Benefits
Clitoral hood reduction offers both aesthetic and functional benefits, which we deliver to our patients at our vaginal rejuvenation center in Michigan.
Aesthetic Benefits of Clitoral Hood Reduction
Many women undergo the clitoral hood reduction procedure for cosmetic reasons. Excessive skin on the clitoral hood makes the area look asymmetrical and protuberant. The procedure removes this unwanted skin to improve the clitoral area’s aesthetic appearance. Clitoral hood reduction is often combined with other vaginal rejuvenation procedures to create a smooth, natural contour. All the treatments are minimally invasive and, if desired, do not change clitoral exposure and sensation.
Functional Benefits of Clitoral Hood Reduction
Childbirth, aging and genetics can cause the clitoral hood to elongate. Some patients seek to increase clitoral sensation along with the aesthetic results of a clitoral hood reduction. Our leading surgeon helps achieve this by removing the extra skin around the clitoris. She then injects naturally-occurring growth factors extracted from the patient’s blood and hyaluronic fillers to lift the clitoral base. This results in increased sensation and heightened pleasure during sexual activities.

FAQs About Clitoral Hood Reduction
Is clitoral hood reduction safe? What are the risks?
All procedures carry risks. Potential complications may include swelling, bruising, bleeding, infection, delayed healing, asymmetry, contour irregularity, or changes in sensation. Your surgeon will review your personal risk profile and how risks are minimized in your case.
Could this procedure affect sexual sensation long term?
Most patients heal without lasting sensory issues, but temporary sensitivity changes can occur during recovery. Long-term outcomes depend on anatomy, healing, and surgical plan. Your surgeon will discuss strategies to protect neurovascular structures and set realistic expectations.
Who should not have clitoral hood reduction?
It may not be appropriate if you are pregnant, have an active infection or untreated skin condition in the area, uncontrolled diabetes, a bleeding disorder, are on certain blood thinners, or have unrealistic goals. A medical evaluation determines candidacy.
Will this affect my ability to urinate, menstruate, become pregnant, or give birth?
The procedure addresses external soft tissue and does not involve the urethra, uterus, or birth canal. It is not a fertility procedure. Your surgeon can explain how pregnancy or delivery later in life may influence cosmetic results.
How long do results last?
Results are intended to be long-lasting. Natural aging, hormonal changes, weight fluctuation, or future childbirth can influence appearance over time. Revision is rarely needed but can be discussed if goals change.
How should I prepare before surgery?
Your care team will provide a personalized checklist. Typical preparation includes stopping nicotine, reviewing medications and supplements that increase bleeding risk, arranging a ride and support at home, and planning time off to rest.
Can I have the procedure during my period?
Scheduling is individualized. Some patients prefer to avoid the heaviest days of their cycle for comfort and hygiene. Ask your surgeon’s team for their scheduling policy.
What if I have a dermatologic condition like lichen sclerosus?
Skin conditions can affect candidacy and healing. Your surgeon may coordinate with a dermatologist and ensure the condition is well-controlled before proceeding.
What if I have piercings in the area?
Piercings may need to be removed before surgery to reduce infection risk and avoid interference with sterile technique. Your provider will advise when they can be replaced.
Is there a minimum age? What about minors?
Age and consent requirements vary by jurisdiction. For patients under the age of majority, most practices require guardian consent and a careful assessment of maturity, medical need, and expectations.
Will insurance cover clitoral hood reduction?
Coverage is uncommon because the procedure is usually considered elective. If symptoms significantly affect function, your surgeon can advise on documentation needed to seek coverage; financing options may be available.
How do I choose the right surgeon?
Look for a board-certified physician with specific experience in vulvar procedures, consistently documented outcomes, a clear consent process, and an emphasis on patient safety and privacy. Ask to review before-and-after photos and postoperative care protocols.
How do you handle privacy and photography?
Reputable clinics obtain written consent before any medical photography, store images securely, and never use them for education or marketing without explicit permission. You may decline non-essential photography.
What are non-surgical or conservative alternatives?
Depending on your goals, options may include hair-removal or grooming adjustments, clothing modifications for comfort, treatment of skin conditions, and counseling for sexual health concerns. Your provider can explain whether these align with your goals.
What is the revision policy if I’m not satisfied?
Policies vary. Ask about timelines for final results, criteria for revision, associated fees, and how decisions are made to ensure changes are in your best interest.
