Labiaplasty
Empower Your Comfort and Confidence
Many women experience discomfort or insecurity due to the size, shape, or asymmetry of their labia, but they may not realize that there is a safe and effective solution. Labiaplasty can correct issues such as labial asymmetry, protrusion, and excessive visibility, addressing both aesthetic and functional concerns. This procedure not only improves the appearance of the labia but also alleviates discomfort during physical activities and intimacy, enhancing your quality of life and boosting your confidence.
Labiaplasty focuses on reshaping the labia minora (the inner lips of the vagina), reducing size or correcting unevenness to create a more balanced, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing look. Women who are in good overall health and experiencing these concerns may be excellent candidates for this life-enhancing procedure.
The Labiaplasty
Procedure
Labiaplasty is a straightforward procedure that can be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia, depending on the patient’s preference and medical history. Dr. Yau carefully removes a V-shaped wedge from the labia minora to reduce its size, ensuring that the procedure avoids creating a visible scar along the labial edge, which can help minimize discomfort during healing. The entire procedure takes around 45 minutes, and patients typically go home the same day.
Recovery From
Labiaplasty
Following labiaplasty, mild to moderate swelling and discomfort are normal, and Dr. Yau will prescribe pain medication to ensure your comfort during recovery. Most patients can return to work within 2 to 4 days, and normal activities such as tampon use and sexual intercourse can usually be resumed in about 4 weeks. Proper post-operative care, including gentle cleaning and the use of antibiotic creams, will help prevent infection and promote healing. The results of labiaplasty can significantly enhance your comfort and confidence, allowing you to feel empowered in every aspect of your life.
