Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty is a helpful  procedure for women troubled with the size or shape of their labia (the skin around the opening). Many women suffer from large labia majora or minora that can develop during puberty, after childbirth or simply due to the aging process.

Undergoing a Labiaplasty can reduce the size or improve the shape of the labia and can help improve a woman's self-confidence and her sex life. For some women a large labia may cause discomfort and surgery may improve these symptoms.

What is Labiaplasty?

A Vaginoplasty may also be performed at the same time and this involves tightening of the wall. This will improve sexual satisfaction for you and your partner.
