Labiaplasty, a surgical procedure designed to reshape and enhance the labia minora, is an essential part of the cosmetic gynecology services we offer. Women opt for labiaplasty for various reasons, including medical and cosmetic concerns. Enlarged labia can lead to discomfort when wearing tight clothing, engaging in certain physical activities like cycling, and may affect sexual intimacy. Changes in the labia's appearance due to factors like childbirth or aging can also impact self-confidence.
Labiaplasty typically takes around 45 minutes and can be performed under either twilight sedation or local anesthesia. Multiple techniques can be used to reshape or reduce the size of the labia, depending on the individual's goals. The surgical process involves the removal (excision) of a portion of the labia through various incisions.
