Labiaplasty Surgery

What Do You need to know About labial reduction Surgery?
Labiaplasty, or labial reduction surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that aims to reshape or reduce the size of the labia (the folds surrounding the vagina) to increase the symmetry between them.

This Surgery can be performed on the labia minora (the smaller, inner vaginal lips) or on the labia majora (the more prominent, outer vaginal lips) that’s become loose caused by childbirth or aging.

What is Labiaplasty Surgery?

This process can be done alone or with Vaginoplasty Surgery. Labial reduction surgery is often performed for cosmetic reasons to change the appearance of the female genital. However, It may also be done to correct large labia or damaged labia that may cause discomfort or pain.

Who are the suitable candidates for Labial Reduction Surgery? 

Perfect candidates for labia removal surgery are women who have experienced notable labial changes after childbirth or have always had irregular labia, Minora, Majora, or both. In general, there is no standard shape for genitalia. But, many women express dissatisfaction with having a prominent labia.

Furthermore, Surgeons recommend labial reduction surgery if :

• You have physical discomfort during sitting, walking, exercising, or having sex.
• We are having Labial tears caused by childbirth.
• You had suffered difficult childbirths; you do not wish to get pregnant anymore, and you are between 30 and 60.

However, this operation is generally safe for all women over 18. In some cases, women younger than 18 who have Labial asymmetry may be candidates for labia surgery.

They need to discuss with their surgeons whether they can undergo it. Most women request labia removal surgery for esthetic reasons, though there are many other reasons for this procedure.
