Labioplasty
What is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at reshaping or reducing the size of the labia minora (the inner vaginal lips) and, in some cases, the labia majora (the outer vaginal lips). This surgery is often chosen by individuals who experience discomfort, irritation, or self-consciousness due to enlarged or asymmetrical labia.
How is Labiaplasty Performed?
Labiaplasty involves the removal of excess tissue from the labia minora or majora to achieve a more aesthetically pleasing and comfortable shape. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia and takes about 1-2 hours.
Who is a Good Candidate for Labiaplasty?
- Individuals experiencing physical discomfort or pain during activities such as cycling, intercourse, or wearing tight clothing
- Those with self-consciousness or dissatisfaction with the appearance of their labia
- Individuals with asymmetrical labia or labia that have changed due to aging, childbirth, or genetics
