Labioplasty, also known as labiaplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at altering the size, shape, or appearance of the labia minora or labia majora—the inner and outer folds of skin surrounding the vaginal opening.

This procedure is often performed for cosmetic reasons or to address functional concerns, such as discomfort or irritation caused by enlarged or asymmetrical labia, or to restore a more youthful appearance after childbirth or aging.

During labioplasty, the surgeon may trim excess tissue from the labia minora or labia majora, reshape the labia, or reduce the size of the labia to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome. The procedure is typically performed under local or general anesthesia and may involve minimal downtime and recovery.

It’s important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon or gynecologist experienced in genital aesthetics to discuss your goals, expectations, and candidacy for labioplasty. As with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with labioplasty, including infection, scarring, and changes in sensation.
