What is a Labiaplasty?

 

Labiaplasty surgery - Charleston SCLabiaplasty, also referred to as Labioplasty, labial reduction, and labia minora is a surgical procedure that alters the inner labia (labia minora) and the outer labia (labia majora), which are the folds of skin around a woman’s vulva. Labiaplasty surgery in Charleston, SC has become a popular procedure for women who are looking to decrease discoloration, size, asymmetry of the inner labia, and discomfort. Working together with a surgeon who was named the “Best Plastic Surgeon in Charleston” will assure you that you are entrusting a renowned Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to help you reach your desired goals.

 

What can I expect with Labiaplasty?

 

Labiaplasty surgery will last approximately two hours, and it’s done using general or local anesthesia. You will see a reduction in prominence or size of your labia minora. Most women who seek Labiaplasty surgery are looking to improve cosmetic appearance. However, some women are looking to do away with symptoms of chronic wetness, chafing, dryness, or irritation due to having a prominent or long inner labia. Our goal is to decrease the size of your inner lips and your clitoral hood so that they don’t extend below your outer labia.

 

There is minimal discomfort post-surgery, and recovery is about a week. You will need to restrict exercise for about two months along with avoiding intercourse or inserting anything (i.e. tampon) during these months as well.

 

Am I a Labiaplasty candidate?

 

Women of all ages who are in good health and looking to undergo surgery for hygienic or cosmetic purposes are good candidates for Labiaplasty. Rejuvenation of your vaginal area can be a sensitive issue to you, so If you’re looking to feel more confident, it is important that you entrust your procedure to a surgeon with vast experience and a good reputation.
