Understanding Labiaplasty: Confidence and Comfort
Dr. Ellen Mahony specializes in labiaplasty, a procedure designed to enhance women's physical comfort and intimate confidence. With 30 years of experience, she helps patients address physical discomfort and aesthetic concerns related to vaginal tissue.
What is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is a cosmetic surgical procedure that reshapes the vaginal area's labia minora or labia majora. Performed under local anesthetic, the surgery can reduce tissue that causes physical discomfort or self-consciousness.
Benefits of Labiaplasty
- Increased physical comfort during activities
- Improved intimate appearance
- Enhanced personal confidence
- Potential reduction in sexual activity discomfort
Ideal Candidates
Healthy women experiencing physical discomfort or self-consciousness due to enlarged labia may be good candidates. Every woman's anatomy is unique, and Dr. Mahony provides personalized consultations to determine individual suitability.
Procedure Details
Two primary techniques are used: the trim technique and the wedge technique. Both involve carefully removing excess tissue to create proportional, comfortable results. The entire procedure typically takes approximately 90 minutes.
Recovery and Expectations
Patients are advised to rest for 2-3 days post-procedure, avoid exercise for three weeks, and abstain from sexual activity for four weeks. A follow-up appointment ensures proper healing and addresses any concerns.
Potential Risks
When performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Mahony, labiaplasty risks are minimal. Short-term considerations include potential infection, scarring, or bleeding, which can be mitigated through proper aftercare.
