Tighten labia minora & improve comfort
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes or reduces the size of the labia minora (inner vaginal lips) to address discomfort, asymmetry, or aesthetic concerns. Whether due to aging, childbirth, or genetics, some women experience discomfort or self-consciousness about the appearance of their labia. This procedure can improve comfort during daily activities or intimate moments and help restore your confidence.
Possible reasons to consider labiaplasty:
- You experience discomfort during physical activities or intimacy
- You feel self-conscious about the appearance of your labia
- You notice asymmetry or excess skin in the labia minora
- You struggle with hygiene or irritation due to enlarged labia
- You have difficulty wearing certain clothing, like tight-fitting pants or swimsuits
- You’ve had changes in the appearance of your labia due to aging or childbirth
- You want to restore confidence in your body and feminine appearance
What can I expect during the consultation?
During your consultation with Dr. Slack, she will take the time to listen to your concerns and understand your goals. You’ll discuss your medical history, including any past surgeries or conditions. Dr. Slack will then perform a thorough physical examination, ensuring you feel comfortable. She will explain the surgical options, expected outcomes, and recovery process. You’ll have the opportunity to ask any questions and make sure you’re fully informed before moving forward with the procedure.
What happens during the labiaplasty procedure?
During the labiaplasty procedure, Dr. Slack will carefully trim excess tissue from the labia minora to achieve a more balanced appearance. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia with sedation, ensuring you are comfortable and relaxed throughout. Dr. Slack will make small, precise incisions along the labia to remove the excess tissue while preserving the natural contours. Once the desired shape is achieved, the incisions will be closed with fine sutures.
What can I expect during recovery after a labiaplasty?
After your labiaplasty, you can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. You may experience mild pain for a few days, which can be managed with prescribed pain medications. Dr. Slack will provide detailed aftercare instructions, including how to care for the surgical site to prevent infection. It’s essential to avoid any strenuous physical activity, including exercise, for at least 4-6 weeks, but you can return to light activities (including work) within a few days.
You’ll need to avoid sexual intercourse for 4-6 weeks while the area heals. Most swelling and bruising will subside within 2-3 weeks, and the final results will be visible after several months as the tissue heals. Dr. Slack will schedule follow-up visits to monitor your progress.
Will labiaplasty leave visible scars?
Scarring is a normal part of any surgical procedure, but Dr. Slack uses meticulous techniques to ensure the incisions are as small and discreet as possible. The incisions are made in natural folds of the labia, which helps minimize the visibility of scars. Most patients find that the scars fade significantly over time, becoming virtually invisible. Dr. Slack will provide detailed scar management instructions to ensure the scars heal beautifully.
