What is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty, sometimes known as Nymphoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the labia minora, the inner folds of skin surrounding the vagina. There is a normal range in size and shape, however some women may experience discomfort due to enlarged labia. This discomfort can be caused by: • Friction during exercise or sexual activity • Difficulty wearing certain types of clothing, particularly swimwear • Self-consciousness about appearance • Significant asymmetry between both sides of the labia
Types of Labiaplasty Procedures
There are two main types of labiaplasty procedures:
1. Labiaplasty reduction: This is the most common type of labiaplasty and involves removing excess tissue from the labia minora.
2. Labiaplasty augmentation: This procedure is less common and involves adding volume to the labia majora, typically with fat grafting.
Is Labiaplasty Right for You?
Labiaplasty is a personal decision. Here are some things to consider: Your concerns: Are you experiencing discomfort or self-consciousness due to the size or shape of your labia minora? Your expectations: It's important to have realistic expectations about the outcome of labiaplasty. Labiaplasty is not designed to create a particular look, but rather to address your specific concerns. Your overall health: You should be in good general health to undergo labiaplasty.
