A labiaplasty is a surgery designed to reduce the size of the labia and change its shape. Also known as a labia reduction, it is a popular procedure that has been performing at The Hospital Group for many years, and with our senior Consultant Gynaecologist having over 20 years’ experience in this field, you can be sure you are in safe hands.
After having children, patients tell us that their labia changes and becomes enlarged. When this happens, the labia can be uncomfortable and even painful, leaving women feeling self-conscious. Labial reduction surgery will reduce discomfort that is caused by oversized labia.
Whilst this may seem like a sensitive topic and very personal to you, and you may feel nervous talking to someone about it, we have a wealth of experience and expertise in gynaecology. Our team of gynaecologists, nurses and surgical assistants will not only take care of you, but also respect your privacy from your first contact with us to your last.
Undergoing labiaplasty can surgically reduce the prominence of your genitals, improving asymmetry and the overall appearance of the labia.
As a result, your confidence can be greatly enhanced. After changing the size and shape of your labia you may feel much happier, and it may also make playing sports and wearing tighter-fitting clothes more comfortable. Our expert Consultant Gynaecologists may also advise having some counselling if they feel this may be of benefit to you.
All surgical procedures pose a potential risk, and it is important know what these are before you go ahead so that you can weigh them up against the benefits your procedure could bring. During your consultations you will talk through these potential complications and you can ask any questions that you have about them.
As a guide, these could include bleeding, pain, infection, scarring and potential revision surgery.
It’s important to bear in mind that there isn’t an average shape or size for the labia. However, medical research has supported that surgery benefits women who have labia greater than 4cm. Many women who opt for this surgery will have been experiencing uncomfortable vulval pain due to the prominent size of their labia.
To ensure you are suitable for the procedure, we would recommend that you have a healthy BMI, have no serious underlying health conditions, and that you are at least 18.
The Hospital Group is a responsible provider of cosmetic surgery, so we understand that each procedure is different and tailored to your requirements and individual needs. At your free consultation, your surgeon assistant will be able to discuss the surgery with you and let you know the cost.
