Concerned About Labial Discomfort or Appearance?

Some women experience discomfort, irritation, or self-consciousness due to labial tissue that is larger, asymmetrical, or sensitive. There are many factors that may cause labia enlargement, including genetics, pregnancy, childbirth, injury, and the natural aging process.

At Defyne, our board-certified plastic surgeons perform labiaplasty to improve the aesthetic appearance of this intimate area, as well as decrease physical discomfort. We understand that no two patients have the same aesthetic goals, which is why we are proud to offer a highly individualized approach. Contact us today to schedule your consultation appointment.

What is a Labiaplasty?

Labiaplasty is a vulvar rejuvenation procedure performed to reduce the size of the labia minora, or the skin that surrounds the vagina. As one of the fastest-growing procedures in aesthetic surgery, labiaplasty is valued for its relatively short procedure time, manageable recovery, and consistently high patient satisfaction as reported in peer-reviewed clinical literature.

Whether you are feeling self-conscious about the appearance of your labia or are seeking to address physical discomfort, labiaplasty surgery is often an effective solution. At Defyne, our surgeons employ individualized, cutting-edge surgical techniques designed to achieve natural-looking results you can be proud of.

Prepare

At Defyne, a consultation appointment will be the first step toward achieving your personal aesthetic goals. During this appointment, your board-certified plastic surgeon will discuss your concerns and learn more about your medical history to determine your candidacy. If labiaplasty is believed to be the appropriate procedure for you, you may be asked to stop or adjust certain medications and stop smoking. Our clinical team will also provide you with thorough instructions on how to best prepare for this procedure.

During Your Procedure

Labiaplasty is a moderately invasive procedure performed with local anesthesia, after which patients can return home to recover. Two main surgical techniques are used during this procedure: the trim technique and the wedge technique. 

The trim technique is the simplest method used for reducing the size of the labia minora. During this technique, excess tissue is removed around the edge of the inner vaginal folds. 

The wedge technique involves removing a wedge of labial tissue from one or both sides of the labia minora. Your surgeon will discuss which surgical approach is best for you and your unique needs during a consultation appointment.

Downtime icon
Downtime & Recovery

Following labiaplasty surgery, patients can return home to recover. Any discomfort experienced can be controlled with prescription pain medication. Keeping the treated area clean is a key part of successful labiaplasty recovery. Our clinical team will provide you with specific instructions on how to clean your incisions for optimal results and when you can return to regular activities. 

The results of labiaplasty are permanent, so you can enjoy your natural-looking results for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I have numbness after Labiaplasty?

It is common for patients to experience some degree of numbness in the treatment area following labiaplasty surgery. However, this effect is temporary and tends to fade away as soon as the labial tissue and surrounding skin heal. During surgery, your surgeon utilizes advanced surgical methods in order to minimize the risk of scarring, nerve damage, and other complications.
