Labiaplasty

What is Labiaplasty Surgery?

A highly effective aesthetic procedure, labiaplasty is a minimally invasive labia surgery performed to correct labial irregularities as well as labial hypertrophy (enlarged inner labia). The procedure focuses on reshaping irregular and asymmetrical labia minora. Women whose labia minora (inner lips of the vagina) protrude from the labia majora (outer lips of the vagina) may experience difficulty with day-to-day activities as a result of labial hypertrophy.

Labiaplasty is an effective method of labial reduction for women seeking to alleviate discomfort caused by chafing of the labia minora. This procedure for labial reconstruction has helped numerous women eliminate pain and discomfort from their daily lives while also achieving beautiful aesthetic results and more pleasure during sexual intimacy.

How is Labia Surgery Performed?

Labiaplasty involves the reduction or reshaping of the labia. The procedure may be performed under general or local anesthesia where the labiaplasty surgeon uses a laser and radiofrequency knife to alter the labial tissue. The edges of the incision site are then stitched with fine, self-dissolving stitches. A labiaplasty surgery typically takes anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes.

There are two techniques by which this surgery is approached— the trim technique and the wedge technique. Our professional surgeon, Dr. Mona has completed thousands of successful vaginal rejuvenation surgeries and is an expert in labia minora reduction.

What To Expect During Labiaplasty

During labiaplasty, the surgeon reshapes or reduces the size of the labia minora (inner lips) and sometimes the labia majora (outer lips).
The procedure usually takes 1-2 hours and is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s preference and surgeon’s recommendation.
Implementing the trim or wedge technique, the surgeon trims excess tissue, contours the labia, and closes the incisions with dissolvable stitches.
Most patients are able to return home the same day after the surgery.
After the procedure, swelling, bruising, and discomfort are common, but these typically subside within a few weeks.
Full recovery generally takes four to six weeks.
Patients should avoid strenuous activities and sexual intercourse during the recovery period.

How To Know If Labiaplasty Is The Right Choice

Labiaplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that can help address concerns arising due to the size or shape of the labia. Consider the following physical and emotional symptoms when determining if labiaplasty is the right option for you.

Persistent Physical Discomfort
If you experience irritation, chafing, or pain from your labia during daily activities like walking, cycling, exercising, or sitting for extended periods, labiaplasty could offer relief.
Pain During Sexual Activity
Pain during sexual intercourse due to the labia pulling, stretching, or twisting causes discomfort and impacts intimacy. Labiaplasty might help enhance your comfort and sexual experience.
Aesthetic Concerns
If you are dissatisfied with the appearance of your labia and it affects your self-esteem or confidence, labiaplasty can provide aesthetic improvements, helping you feel more comfortable with your body.
Difficulty with Hygiene
If you find that excess labial tissue makes it difficult to maintain personal hygiene, leading to irritation or infections, labiaplasty may be a practical solution.
Emotional Distress
If you often feel anxious, embarrassed, or self-conscious about your labia, and this is impacting your quality of life, labiaplasty could improve your mental and emotional well-being.
Lack of Success with Non-Surgical Solutions
If you have tried adjusting your lifestyle, clothing, or hygiene routines without being able to resolve discomfort or aesthetic concerns, labia surgery may be the next step to consider.

Labiaplasty Surgery Benefits

Labiaplasty is widely popular among women unsatisfied with the look or physical experience of their vaginal area. While it is essential to understand that all women are unique and there is no ideal shape or size of the labia, there are methods of labial reduction that help attain the desired results.

There are alternate, non-surgical methods of altering the labia minora; however, they may not be as accurate and effective in achieving the results that are possible by professional labia surgery. Labiaplasty can be a life-changing procedure if executed properly. Our expert labiaplasty surgeon, Dr. Mona, performs the surgery adhering to the highest medical standards at our state-of-the-art labiaplasty facility in Michigan.
