Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty surgery aims to reduce the size of the labia minora – the skin flaps on either side of the opening of the vagina. Women who want to get this treatment usually do so because they do not like the look of their labia or because there is a functional impairment in their vagina.

It is worth mentioning that LABIAPLASTY or VULVAL SURGERY is not for girls younger than 18 years. This is because the labia continues to develop until early adulthood.

Reasons to Opt for Labiaplasty

Women have large labia for many reasons, including aging, childbirth, genetics, and sexual activity. While this problem does not impact health directly, it does have an indirect blow on your well-being and some unwanted effects on the appearance of the external genitalia. All these are good reasons to have labiaplasty.

Here is why most women would want to undergo this surgery:

• Difficulty exercising and performing other physical activities
• Urinary tract infections
• Painful sexual activity
• Problem wearing certain clothes such as swimsuits, workout pants, and yoga pants
• Poor body image leads to extra self-consciousness

Labiaplasty Surgery Procedures

Back in the day, surgeons performed labiaplasty using only one technique. But now, various treatment options are available, thanks to the evolution in the surgical technique and extensive research put into the subject.

Here is a brief overview of the two most common procedures.

The Trim Procedure

The trim procedure the original labiaplasty procedure is the most common labial reshaping technique surgeons perform. During this procedure, the excess part of the labia minora is cut and sutured, bringing it in the proper symmetry with the labia majora.

The Wedge Procedure

During this procedure, the surgeon removes a partially thick wedge from the thickest part of the labia minora. Throughout this surgery, the surgeon makes sure that the submucosa – the layer beneath the mucous membrane is not damaged. This procedure gives the vagina an optimal appearance and preserves its natural contour.

Your doctor may choose from other techniques to reduce labia minora if necessary. All those techniques come with certain benefits and pitfalls. But in general, the success of this treatment depends on the practitioner’s expertise. Therefore, you must consult a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in labiaplasty.

• Increased sexual pleasure: An improved vaginal appearance keeps the embarrassment of oversized labia during sex at bay. As a result, you will have increased sexual confidence, making your intimate moments more enjoyable.
• Reduced discomfort: The labia minora consists of a delicate tissue that quickly becomes irritated when exposed to friction caused by sexual activity and exercise. After labiaplasty, there will be no excess tissues to cause you discomfort, allowing you to enjoy your moments of physical activity and sex.
• Improved hygiene: Labiaplasty removes excess tissue that otherwise harbors harmful microbes and makes daily hygiene difficult. This way, the risk of urinary tract infections and other health issues will reduce significantly.

• Dehiscence: also known as wound separation
• Hematoma: a condition caused by blood collecting and pooling under the skin
• Scarring
• Superficial infection
