The artistry of Labiaplasty
regain comfort and confidence

A woman’s intimate parts can come in a wide range of appearances that are all anatomically correct. Although there is no individual shape of vagina or labia that is considered “regular”, it is not uncommon for women to feel self-conscious about the way they look. Most often women become concerned when the labia are enlarged or long, which can be congenital, changed from giving birth, or affected by hormonal fluctuations. The Labiaplasty procedure involves re-sculpting the labia minora, sometimes in combination with the labia majora, to a comfortable and more appealing size desired by the patient. Many women find confidence by rejuvenating and reducing the external genital area to provide a very natural result with minimal scarring.

Who is the good candidate for this procedure?

It is not uncommon for women to feel unhappy with the appearance and structure of their vagina. Some women feel discomfort wearing pants, are more prone to rashes and infections like thrush, have difficulties having sex, feel self-consciousness when wearing swimsuits, or simply feel their labia don’t look right. In particular, this is often the case if the labia minora are asymmetrical, long, or protrude outside of the labia majora. When these concerns affect a women’s everyday life, intimate relationships, and comfort, a labiaplasty may be an excellent option to restore a more youthful appearance and enhance one’s confidence.
