Understanding Labiaplasty: Female Genital Rejuvenation Surgery

Labiaplasty is a specialized cosmetic procedure designed to reduce elongated or irregular labia minora. This surgical intervention addresses both functional and aesthetic concerns for women seeking improved comfort and confidence.

Candidates for Labiaplasty

Ideal candidates for labiaplasty may seek the procedure to achieve the following goals:

• Improve symmetry of the labia minora
• Reduce enlargement of the labia minora
• Enhance personal hygiene
• Boost self-confidence and body image

Surgical Procedure Details

Labiaplasty is an outpatient procedure typically lasting 1-2 hours. The surgery is performed under IV sedation, during which excess labial tissue is carefully reduced and meticulously sutured to achieve the desired aesthetic and functional outcome.

Post-Operative Recovery and Expectations

After the procedure, patients receive comprehensive post-operative care instructions. Patients can expect:

• Temporary swelling and discomfort, typically resolving within two weeks
• Prescription pain management medications
• Temporary restrictions on sexual activity and rigorous physical exercise (approximately 4 weeks)
• Dissolvable sutures that do not require manual removal

Important Considerations

Patients are encouraged to thoroughly understand the procedure's risks and benefits. Each labiaplasty is a personalized experience tailored to individual anatomical needs and personal goals.
