Why people consider it
What are the benefits?
- Considered when the shape of the labia is the reason for asking
- A smaller operation than a thigh lift or a tummy tuck
- Usually home the same day
Often considered in the situations above. A consultation is the place to talk about the result you have in mind, and whether this procedure is a sensible way there. Nothing is offered until that conversation has happened. Individual results vary.
Labiaplasty reshapes the labia. It is a smaller operation than a thigh lift or a tummy tuck, and most people go home the same day.
Swelling is usual for a fortnight or so. Exercise, and anything that rubs, typically waits several weeks. The scar sits along the edge and is usually discreet once it has settled.
