Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure performed to correct the shape, size or appearance of the inner lips (labia minora) of the female genital area. This procedure is an option that women may prefer due to aesthetic or functional concerns.
Labiaplasty is usually performed to reduce the length of the labia minora or to make it symmetrical. Some women may feel discomfort during sexual intercourse due to the fact that the labia minora is larger than usual or asymmetrical, or they may feel constant discomfort while wearing.
Labiaplasty is usually performed under local anesthesia and the procedure takes about an hour. The surgeon uses a laser or scalpel to shorten or reshape the labia minora. During the procedure, pain relievers and sedative medications may also be prescribed for the patient’s comfort.
After The Operation
The healing process can vary from person to person. However, usually, a slight pain, swelling and tenderness may be experienced during the first few days after the procedure. However, it is usually possible to return to normal activities within a few weeks.
The labiaplasty procedure also brings with it some risks. These may include complications such as infection, bleeding, opening of stitches and loss of sensation. However, these risks are usually low and can be prevented when performed by an experienced surgeon who performs the procedure.
Labiaplasty can be an important solution for some women. However, as always, before taking this type of action, it is advisable to carefully consider the risks and benefits and conduct a thorough consultation. This way, you can make decisions that will best meet your needs.
