What Is Labiaplasty?

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure to reduce the size of the female genitalia or, more specifically, the inner and outer labia. Women request this procedure for many reasons, including: embarrassment during sexual intercourse, discomfort during sports, a desire to restore after childbirth or aging, etc. Labiaplasty can be paired with many other cosmetic procedures if desired.

How Can Labiaplasty Increase My Comfort?

If you have enlarged labia—either naturally or from aging/childbirth/etc.—you may experience discomfort. The labia may rub against clothing, causing discomfort and chaffing. Many women find that they experience discomfort during sports and athletic events like running and cycling. Since labiaplasty can decrease the size of the labia, you’ll likely experience a complete elimination or significant reduction of this discomfort after you’ve healed.

I’m Embarrassed by the Appearance of my Labia. What Can I Do?

Labiaplasty can transform the pubic area. With the increased popularity of little to no pubic hair, many women are finding that their pubic area is more exposed than ever before. If you’re embarrassed by the appearance of your labia, contact us and discuss your options. Labiaplasty can give you a boost of confidence in your appearance and can rejuvenate your look.

What Does Labiaplasty Involve?

Labiaplasty is a relatively simple procedure. It can be performed under general or local anesthetic with sedation, depending on the extent of your surgery and your tolerance for pain. We often pair it with other cosmetic procedures, like tummy tucks or facelifts. The procedure itself takes 30-45 minutes, with minimal bleeding and swelling.
