What is labiaplasty?

Labiaplasty is a surgery to change the shape or size of the labia. It helps to remove discomfort if the labia are enlarged or asymmetrical, and to correct the appearance if it causes discomfort.

Such features may interfere with walking, sports, or wearing tight clothing. Sometimes this causes embarrassment and reduces self-confidence.

Plastic surgery lasts about an hour, is performed under local anesthesia and is suitable for both young girls and older women.

General information about the procedure

Indications for labiaplasty

The main cases when doctors recommend this procedure are:

  1. Physical discomfort. Enlarged or asymmetrical labia can cause unpleasant sensations when walking, playing sports or in intimate life. Women often complain of chafing, irritation, or pain
  2. Aesthetic dissatisfaction. Some women do not like the appearance of the labia. This can lower self-esteem and cause psychological discomfort, especially in intimate relationships
  3. Injuries and scars. After childbirth, trauma or surgery, scars or deformities may appear on the labia that require correction
  4. Hygiene problems. Enlarged labia make it difficult to carry out hygiene procedures, which increases the risk of infections or inflammatory diseases
  5. Pathologies. Some congenital or acquired conditions (e.g. labia minora hypertrophy) can interfere with normal life and cause medical recommendations for plastic surgery

Both medical and aesthetic approaches are suitable for the solution, which is worth talking about in detail with the doctor. If you have any questions, come for a consultation at the K+31 clinic (Moscow). Our doctors will tell you in detail about the procedure and help you choose the best solution. You can sign up for a consultation by phone or through the website. All prices are indicated in the price list on the website.

Preparation for labiaplasty surgery

It is important to undergo thorough preparation before labiaplasty:

  1. Initial consultation with the surgeon. The doctor clarifies the complaints, assesses anatomical features and general health. During the consultation, you discuss the desired result, the appropriate method of surgery and the possible risks
  2. Examination and tests. Before plastic surgery, tests must be taken: a general blood test, clotting tests, examinations for infections (including HIV, hepatitis and syphilis). It is important to exclude inflammatory processes in the reproductive system - for this, a smear for flora
  3. Operation Time Determination. Labiaplasty is performed outside of menstruation. The optimal time is day 5-10 of the cycle, when the tissues heal better
  4. Withdrawal from certain drugs. If you are taking anticoagulants (blood thinners), you need to tell your doctor. They are usually stopped a few days before surgery to avoid bleeding
  5. Hygiene before surgery. On the day of surgery, it is important to carry out thorough hygiene of the intimate area using mild products. Doctors usually recommend avoiding harsh cleansing products that can cause irritation
  6. Exclusion of Intimate Life. 2-3 days before the procedure, sexual intercourse should be avoided to avoid microtrauma and the risk of infection

After plastic surgery, it will take time to recover. Discuss all restrictions and recommendations with your doctor to plan ahead for the coming days.

How is labiaplasty performed?

Plastic surgery takes place in stages:

  1. Anesthesia. Before the start of plastic surgery, local anesthesia or light anesthesia is performed. For example, if a slight correction is required, local anesthesia with an injection is sufficient. This eliminates any pain
  2. Markup. The surgeon uses a marker to mark the areas that need to be corrected. For example, if one of the labia minora is longer than the other, the doctor marks lines to remove excess tissue
  3. Main stage of the operation. Radio waves or a laser are used. If it is necessary to reduce the length of the labia minora, the surgeon carefully removes excess tissue, avoiding damage. To work with large lips, for example, to add volume, lipofilling (injection of the patient's own fat) can be used. Plastic surgery lasts about 30-60 minutes and is carried out as gently as possible
  4. Suturing. Sutures are self-absorbable, which do not require removal. They are minimal, do not interfere with healing and exclude scars

After the procedure is completed, the doctor checks the result and makes sure that there is no bleeding or other complications. You get clear recommendations: wear soft underwear, avoid physical exertion and sexual activity for a period of two to four weeks.

Rehabilitation

After plastic surgery, it is important to follow the doctor's recommendations so that the healing process is quick and without complications. Rehabilitation usually takes two to four weeks, but the exact time depends on the extent of the intervention and the characteristics of the body.

After the procedure, there may be slight swelling and slight discomfort in the area of intervention. These symptoms are normal and gradually disappear. To reduce swelling, cold compresses can be used (through a cloth so as not to overcool the tissues). The doctor may also prescribe painkillers and antiseptics.

Daily hygiene is an essential element of recovery. Use mild products without aggressive additives, rinse the joint area with warm water. Be sure to change sanitary pads several times a day to eliminate the risk of infection.

For the duration of rehabilitation, you should give up the following things:

  • Sexual intercourse (for up to 4-6 weeks)
  • Strenuous physical activity, including sports and weight lifting
  • Bathing in the bath, pools or open water (1 month)
  • Wearing tight or synthetic underwear

Self-absorbable sutures do not need to be removed – they dissolve on their own. After 1-2 weeks, the tissues begin to recover, but the final result can be assessed in about 1.5 months.

Be sure to visit a doctor 7-10 days after surgery. He will check how the healing is going and, if necessary, adjust the recommendations.

Answers to popular questions

K+31 doctors have prepared answers to the most frequently asked questions.

Can labiaplasty be done before childbirth?

Yes, labiaplasty does not affect the possibility of pregnancy and natural childbirth. The operation affects only external tissues and does not affect reproductive function. However, if you are planning a pregnancy in the near future, it is better to discuss the timing of the procedure with your doctor.

At what age can labiaplasty be performed?

Plastic surgery can be performed after the completion of puberty, when the tissues are fully formed. Usually from the age of 18. In rare cases, labiaplasty may be recommended at an earlier age for medical reasons.

Do scars remain after labiaplasty?

No, scars after surgery are almost invisible. Self-absorbable sutures are used, and tissues in the intimate area heal quickly and without scarring.

How do I know if I need labiaplasty?

If you experience physical discomfort (for example, chafing, pain during sports or intimate life) or you are concerned about your aesthetic appearance, you should consult a doctor. Only a specialist will be able to determine whether the procedure is right for you and help you make a decision.
