What Is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape or reduce the size of the labia minora and, in some cases, the labia majora or clitoral hood. The procedure focuses on improving both appearance and function, addressing issues such as labial protrusion, uneven folds, or excess tissue that may cause discomfort during movement, exercise, or tight clothing. Labiaplasty can create a more symmetrical and balanced appearance, enhancing the natural contours of the vulva while preserving normal sensation and function. The doctor at our affiliated hospital carefully evaluates the labial tissue to determine the most suitable technique for achieving optimal results.
Beyond aesthetic enhancement, Labiaplasty provides functional benefits that improve daily comfort and hygiene. The procedure can reduce friction, irritation, or chafing caused by physical activity or clothing, making cleansing easier and minimizing bacterial buildup. Labiaplasty can also correct urinary flow issues and restore a youthful, harmonious appearance after childbirth, aging, or hormonal changes.
How It Works
Labiaplasty begins with a consultation by the doctor at the affiliated hospital, where the labial anatomy is carefully evaluated and the desired outcome is discussed. During this stage, the doctor determines the most suitable technique for reshaping the labia, considering factors such as symmetry, tissue size, and overall aesthetic balance. Local anesthesia will be applied for the procedure. Then, excess labial tissue will be gently removed or reshaped using precise surgical techniques, such as wedge excision or edge trimming. The doctor ensures that natural contours are maintained and that nerve function is preserved, reducing the risk of altered sensation. After the procedure, mild swelling, bruising, and soreness are common and usually last for 1 week. Most normal activities can resume within a week, while sexual activity and strenuous exercise are generally restricted for 4 to 6 weeks to allow complete healing. Overall, Labiaplasty provides both functional relief and aesthetic enhancement with minimal downtime.

3. Incisions and tissue reshaping will be performed.
