Labiaplasty involves the surgical reshaping or reduction of the labia minora to address asymmetry, discomfort, or aesthetic concerns.
Why Do Women Choose Labiaplasty?
Enlarged or asymmetrical labia minora can cause physical discomfort during exercise, sexual intercourse, or when wearing tight clothing. Many patients also seek the procedure for aesthetic reasons following changes after childbirth or with age.
The Procedure
Performed under local or general anaesthesia, typically 45–90 minutes. The trim method removes excess tissue along the labial edge; the wedge technique reduces size while preserving the natural border. Dissolvable sutures leave minimal scarring.
Recovery
Return to light activities within a few days. Full recovery — including sexual activity and exercise — typically within 4–6 weeks.
Combination Procedures
Frequently combined with clitoral hood reduction, perineoplasty, or other genital aesthetic procedures in a single session.
