Labiaplasty (Labia Rejuvenation)

Labiaplasty or Labia Rejuvenation is a procedure that aims to decrease the size of the labia minora (inner tissues of the female genitalia), so it merges with the labia majora (outer part of the female genitalia). A few major reasons for performing labiaplasty include discomfort during exercise, sexual intercourse or other type of physical activities. The procedure begins with general or local anaesthesia involving the shortening and reshaping of vaginal lips by cutting off unwanted tissue with a laser. The procedure takes around 45 minutes and can be performed under local or general anaesthesia. The most common type of labiaplasty is the trim procedure in which extra tissue is removed and closure is done with absorbable sutures. The swelling is gone by 6 weeks. An experienced plastic and reconstructive surgeon are the right specialists for Labiaplasty. The success rate for the treatment is high and post-surgery issues are a rare occurrence. After Labiaplasty, patients can resume workout sessions in three to four weeks. Other activities like intercourse or tampon usage should be done as instructed by the surgeon.
