Labiaplasty is a type of cosmetic surgery that involves the alteration or reduction of the labia minora (the inner folds of skin around the vaginal opening) or labia majora (the outer folds of skin). This procedure is often performed for aesthetic reasons, to address discomfort, or to correct asymmetry or enlargement of the labia.
There are several reasons why someone might choose to undergo labiaplasty:
Labiaplasty is typically performed under local or general anesthesia and can take from one to two hours, depending on the complexity. The procedure involves the removal of excess tissue and reshaping of the labia to create a more symmetrical, natural appearance.
While labiaplasty is generally considered safe, like any surgical procedure, it carries risks such as infection, scarring, and changes in sensation. It's important for individuals considering this surgery to consult with a qualified surgeon to discuss potential risks and benefits, as well as to ensure the procedure aligns with their goals and expectations.
