LABIAPLASTY
Some plastic surgeries are of a more sensitive nature than others, and labiaplasty, or labia reduction, is one of them. While many plastic surgeons do not perform this procedure, Dr. Christine Rodgers and Dr. Cecelia Nguyen consider labiaplasty surgery to be one of their specialties. Our patients benefit from the care, skill, and understanding of experienced female plastic surgeons who prioritize professionalism and patient comfort. Dr. Rodgers and Dr. Nguyen typically perform most of these procedures in the comfort of our office with an all-female staff, ensuring a compassionate environment.
Labiaplasty can be performed for a variety of reasons, including cosmetic concerns or to alleviate discomfort or embarrassment caused by larger labia during athletic activities or intercourse. It is important to note that labia reduction does not inherently enhance sexual pleasure, but it can restore confidence in a woman’s body and sexuality.
The procedure involves the removal of excess tissue from enlarged labia minora (inner lips) or labia majora (outer lips) using two main techniques: the trim technique and the wedge technique. The trim technique helps correct labia discoloration by removing excess skin, and the labia minora are gently repositioned within the labia majora. The wedge technique is more complex and is used to correct the shape or size of the labia without making incisions on the outer surface, which is ideal for women who prefer a more subtle approach.
Dr. Rodgers and Dr. Nguyen usually perform these procedures in our private office under local anesthesia, though some patients prefer to have the surgery in a hospital operating room with general anesthesia. These options will be discussed thoroughly during your initial consultation.
As with all surgeries, there are certain risks involved. During your consultation, Dr. Rodgers and Dr. Nguyen will discuss the procedure in detail, outlining the realistic potential results and any possible risks to ensure you make an informed decision.
