Labiaplasty Recovery: What You Should Know – Click to watch Dr. Patel

Labiaplasty, popularly known as the ‘designer vagina’, can help improve the appearance and function of the genitals. It involves removing or reducing the size of the labia minora that sometimes grow large or asymmetrically. There are many reasons for having large or asymmetric labia which include things such as, genetics, hormonal changes, childbirth, activity, or just aging. Most of the time they are unsightly and are noticed when you wear tight clothing or experience an awkward intimate situation. Other times they may create pain with sexual activity or other physical activities. Leaving this problem untreated will only serve to increase your embarrassment, limit your confidence, and debilitate or create dysfunction in your lifestyle.

There should be no need for embarrassment since this problem is pretty common and can happen to anyone and at any age. New Jersey Plastic Surgeon Dr. Nikesh Patel is a specialist in labiaplasty and vaginal rejuvenation and can help you overcome your pain and fears. In your private and confidential consultation you will be able to discuss your concerns and understand your options without embarrassment.

What is Labiaplasty or Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation?

Labiaplasty is a plastic surgery procedure that reduces or balances the size of enlarged or asymmetric labia minora, or the inner lips of the vulva. These tissues often cover the vaginal canal and the clitoris.  Sometimes the clitoral tissues are also excessive and require additional treatment.  After labiaplasty, the vulva has a neater and more youthful look as the labia minora no longer protrude outside the outer vaginal lips. They also do not show or cause discomfort while wearing clothing, during everyday activities, or sex.

Who can have a Labiaplasty?

The procedure is appropriate for anyone who has uneven or enlarged vaginal lips or labia minora. Additionally people who experience discomfort while exercising, wearing clothes, or during sex can benefit from a labioplasty. People who have problems with hygiene, skin irritation, or rashes may also see significant benefits.

More women are also seeking labiaplasty because of embarrassment from intimate situations or their appearance with clothing.  Basically, if you have extra tissue, asymmetry, or just want things to be neater then you may be a candidate.

What Labiaplasty techniques do you use?

Labiaplasty can be performed with a few techniques and in several different settings. Lasers can be used to make incisions but are not necessary for the procedure and do not improve results. Generally, labiaplasty procedures remove the excessive or irregular tissues in a linear, wedge, island fashion. All of these techniques are valid and produce excellent results but are appropriate in specific situations. Dr. Nikesh Patel respects the fact that every patient is unique and therefore customizes your procedure based on the problems you are experiencing, your anatomy, and your desired results. A customized surgery will give you the best results for your anatomy.

Labiaplasty will usually take about one hour and can be performed in the office under a local anesthetic or in the operating room with local anesthesia and sedation. Determining which setting is appropriate is a joint decision between you and expert labiaplasty surgeon Dr. Nikesh Patel.

What is clitoral hood reduction or unhooding?

The clitoral tissues usually cover or hood over the clitoris.  When you have excess labia and need a labiaplasty you may have extra tissues in this area also.  Treating this at the same time as labiaplasty is a good idea and can help give you a more symmetric result.  Consulting with Dr. Patel will help you determine if you will benefit from this procedure.
