Gain comfort and confidence with Labiaplasty
Boost your self-confidence with discrete labiaplasty, a vaginal rejuvenation procedure from Quintessa.
Patients often desire a labiaplasty for a number of reasons. Whether is purely aesthetic or function concerns like pinching and twisting, a labiaplasty can alleviate these issues and have you feeling more confident.
Even though “normal” labia come in a variety of sizes and shapes, you may feel your labia is too long or asymmetrical. Oftentimes, women may also feel pain or discomfort if the labia skin interferes with intercourse or become pinched or twisted doing everyday activities like wearing underwear, exercising, or even sitting
Our goal is to listen to your concerns and provide the best treatment plan available, beginning with a discrete consultation, where we can also discuss options like ThermiVa vaginal rejuvenation for those interested in non-surgical feminine wellness solutions.
What is Labiaplasty?
A labiaplasty is a procedure that reshapes the labia minora, or “inner lips” of the vulva. Everyone’s anatomy is unique but ideally, the labia minora does not extend beyond the outer, labia majora. Many individuals have large or hypertrophic labia minora due to genetics or that have stretched or loosened due to childbirth or aging. There are also options to reduce the volume of the labia majora if they are too large or add fat if they have lost volume. Your surgeon will discuss your specific concerns and develop a customized plan to help you achieve your goals.
Why do women choose vaginal rejuvenation surgeries?
Labiaplasty procedures are chosen for a number of aesthetic or function reasons. Often it’s a combination of issues and a labiaplasty can be a solution for pain caused by the twisting and tugging of the labia. When the labia minora is large, it can cause this type of discomfort and pain during certain activities like riding a bike or during intercourse.
However, some women select this procedure to simply resolve general itching and irritation or to improve the overall appearance of the vaginal area as well.
Best candidates for Labiaplasty
Ideal labiaplasty candidates are healthy women who are no longer planning on having children and desire genital rejuvenation.
Preparing for your Labiaplasty
You should stop any medication or supplements that are not essential for 10-14 days prior to your labiaplasty to decrease your risk of bleeding complications. Please refer to your list of medications to avoid and always check with your doctor prior to stopping medications.
What to expect during Labiaplasty surgery
Labiaplasty reduces the labia minora, causing them to no longer hang below the labia majora. This procedure can be completed to reduce asymmetry – when one labia is longer than the other, or to shorten both labia so that they do not twist, tug, or become exposed. The technique can be performed under local anesthesia and involves excising the redundant skin. These incisions are hidden and only absorbable sutures are used.
Our very own Dr. Daniel Butz will provide expert advice and consultation so you can decide if this procedure is right for you before committing.
Labiaplasty recovery & postoperative planning
The recovery process following a labiaplasty depends on the individual. However, most patients take a week off of work to fully recover. Some swelling and pain is expected and best relieved with an ice pack and rest. You should avoid rigorous exercise for at least 2 weeks and avoid lifting anything heavier than a gallon of milk. Most people are able to resume all normal activities after four to six weeks. Be sure to speak with our staff about any recovery questions you may have.
The procedure can be performed in the office under local sedation or in an accredited outpatient surgery center with the assistance of an anesthesiologist.
Location: Outpatient.
Recovery Time: 2-3 weeks
