Labiaplasty

Reduction or reshaping of the labia minora, when the discomfort is daily: clothing, sport, intercourse.

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that reduces or reshapes the labia minora in order to address functional discomfort, asymmetry or an aesthetic concern. It can ease discomfort linked to clothing, sport or intercourse, and help restore greater comfort and self-confidence. Performed as a day case, under local anaesthetic.

Advice

• Loose cotton underwear while healing
• A cold compress in the first few hours to limit swelling, following the instructions given
• Avoid intercourse, baths and tampons until healing is complete

FAQ

Is sensitivity preserved?

yes.

Can it be performed on a woman who is a virgin?

Yes, labiaplasty can be performed on women who are virgins, as it concerns only the external structures of the vulva and does not involve the hymen.

Is the clitoral hood assessed as well?

Yes, an assessment of the clitoral hood is always part of the consultation, as its anatomy is closely linked to that of the labia minora. A clitoral hood reduction may therefore be combined with it where indicated, in order to preserve the balance and harmony of the vulva as a whole.
