Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at reshaping or reducing the size of the labia minora or labia majora. Women may choose this surgery for various reasons, including physical discomfort, aesthetic preferences, or to address changes due to aging or childbirth. Our clinic offers this procedure with utmost care and professionalism.

Understanding Labiaplasty

The labia can vary greatly in size and shape among women. Some may experience discomfort during physical activities, irritation, or self-consciousness due to enlarged or asymmetrical labia. Labiaplasty involves the surgical reduction or reshaping of the labia to alleviate these concerns. The procedure typically lasts 1–2 hours and can be performed under local or general anesthesia. Recovery times vary, with most patients resuming normal activities within a few weeks.

What to Expect During the Procedure

• Consultation: Discussion of medical history, reasons for the procedure, and expected outcomes.
• Procedure: Performed under anesthesia; excess tissue is removed or reshaped for a more symmetrical appearance.
• Recovery: Swelling and discomfort are common initially; advised to avoid strenuous activities and sexual intercourse for 4–6 weeks.

Benefits of Labiaplasty
