LABIA REDUCTION & CORRECTION

Labiaplasty is also called labiaplasty. It is an intimate surgical procedure that improves the aesthetic appearance of the female genitalia. The surgery involves reduction of the labia, typically the labia minora. They are reshaped, shortened, thinned out or symmetrically adjusted. It is also possible to adjust the texture and pigmentation. Therefore, the procedure can also be called labia beautification. This aesthetic adjustment increases the self-confidence of many patients, as they feel uncomfortable if their genital area looks slightly different from what they see in magazines. This can lead to them abstaining from sexual intercourse altogether and not daring to show themselves openly - even to their partner. With small adjustments in a short procedure, these doubts and shame can be reduced. Drooping or somewhat enlarged labia minora can also be bothersome or painful during sports. These issues can also be treated with adjustments. If you would like to change your appearance even more extensively, our experienced

specialists in plastic and aesthetic surgery can combine a vaginal lift or vaginal tightening with this. Thanks to new and innovative laser technologies, we now also offer several non-surgical options that can provide great results, eliminating the need for major surgery.

Before you decide to undergo intimate surgery, you will have a detailed and personal consultation with one of our experienced specialists. There you describe what your wishes are. Your doctor will then show you whether and how labia reduction can support this. You can ask all your questions, which we will answer in detail. Afterwards, you will receive all the information about the preparation, the treatment itself and the time afterwards.

Labiaplasty is performed under local or general anesthesia in our clinic, the MEDICAL INN Center, in Düsseldorf.

The surgery takes about 1-2 hours, but the length of the procedure depends on the extent of the correction and whether it is performed at the same time as other procedures. Many women also desire other procedures, such as vaginal tightening, to achieve complete rejuvenation and beautification of this area. Depending on your desires for the final result, we perform a gentle laser treatment where the recovery time is significantly shorter than surgery with a scalpel. Scarring is also less frequent compared to traditional techniques. After the surgery, you can go home after a few hours. Most patients only require a few days off work.

Labiaplasty can be performed alone or in combination with other procedures, such as:

Clitoral prepuce reduction: reduction of the folds of skin surrounding the clitoris to increase sexual pleasure and improve appearance.

Vaginoplasty: surgical or non-surgical narrowing of the vagina.

Hymenoplasty: repair of the hymen using special laser technology.

Perineoplasty: where the tissue between the vagina and anus is repaired and tightened. Removal or reduction of scars caused by vaginal birth and episiotomies, removal of excess skin in the perineum (area between the rectum and the vaginal opening) and tightening of the perineal muscles.

Mons Pubis reduction: the mons pubis is the pubic bone. The tissue above it is connected to the labia minora. In some cases, reduction of this can be combined with labia reduction. This can be achieved through liposuction.

Laser Depigmentation & Structural Enhancement: These procedures use the latest laser technology and reduce hyperpigmentation and improve the structure and tension of the pubic area in a non-invasive, painless way.

While vaginal tightening reduces the diameter of the vagina, labiaplasty involves the surgical reduction of outer and/or inner labia. Many women want the outer labia to completely cover the inner labia and for the labia not to have a dark or irregular border. We create these changes through various techniques, which your doctor discusses and explains with you personally and specifically adapted to your wishes.

Many of our clients come to us because they have had an operation in another clinic and are not satisfied with the result. Although we are sorry that some patients had to go through this unpleasant experience, fortunately we can report that in most cases we were able to help correct the situation and achieve a beautiful, satisfactory result.

While a difference can be seen even after a relatively short period of time, the long-term results of labiaplasty typically appear within a few months.

Yes, these procedures are often combined by our renowned team when women want a comprehensive change.

As after other surgeries, the wound must heal after labia reduction. This takes about 6 weeks. You should wait for these 6 weeks to prevent wound healing problems.

No, there are no visible scars and the incision lines blend into the natural folds of the labia and fade over time.

Risks can occur with any surgery. One possible risk is that nerves may be damaged during the procedure. However, this is very rare due to our gentle laser technique. Temporary numbness or reduced sensitivity of the labia minora may also occur. In most cases, these disappear after 1-2 months.

Yes. Many patients have their labia reduced after childbirth because their labia grew larger during pregnancy or drooped a bit after childbirth.

You will receive local anesthesia during the procedure, so you will not feel anything during the surgery. You may experience mild pain after the procedure. For these cases, you will be given painkillers to take as needed.

In general, it is recommended that you wait one menstrual cycle before using tampons again.

After this operation you will need a few days of bed rest and ice for cooling. After 3-4 days you can resume "light work". For the next 3 weeks you should not do any sports or strenuous activities.

As with other surgical procedures, there are risks and side effects. Hematomas and discoloration, as well as risks associated with anesthesia have been observed. The likelihood of these are low and our renowned team does everything to ensure that the surgery is as safe as possible.

The results of a labiaplasty are permanent, but can be altered by childbirth or the aging process.

It is recommended that you stay until the next day to ensure that you recover well from the surgery.
