Comprehensive Labiaplasty Techniques

Clitoral Hood Reduction

Female genitalia vary in shape and size. The clitoral hood, similar to male foreskin, protects the clitoris. Some women experience excess tissue that appears bulky. Dr. Sato carefully trims this tissue to improve cosmetic appearance while preserving sexual function and comfort.

Labia Minora and Majora Modification

Labial tissues can naturally enlarge or stretch due to multiple factors including:

• Childbirth
• Hormonal changes
• Sexual activity
• Natural aging process

Mons Pubis and Labial Fat Grafting

With aging, women often experience fatty tissue loss in the pubic region. Fat grafting techniques can restore youthful volume by transferring fat from areas like the abdomen, hips, or thighs to the mons pubis and labia majora.

Candidate Evaluation for Labiaplasty

Ideal candidates are in good health and fully developed. Dr. Sato conducts comprehensive medical examinations to determine individual suitability. Candidates may seek labiaplasty for various reasons, including physical discomfort, aesthetic concerns, or changes resulting from hormonal shifts.

Procedure Overview

Labiaplasty is typically an outpatient procedure performed under local anesthesia, lasting approximately 1-1.5 hours. Each surgical plan is customized during a detailed pre-operative consultation to address the patient's specific anatomical needs and aesthetic goals.

Recovery and Considerations

Recovery varies by individual but generally involves several days of limited activity. Most patients return to work within a week and resume normal activities, including exercise, within 4-6 weeks. Strict adherence to post-operative instructions ensures optimal healing.
