What is Labiaplasty?

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reduce and reshape the labia minora. The female external genitals include outer and inner labia, which can vary significantly in size and shape due to factors like genetics, hormones, pregnancy, childbirth, and weight changes.

• Renewing self-confidence
• Improving comfort in form-fitting clothing
• Enhancing comfort during physical activities
• Addressing physical discomfort from enlarged labia
• Repairing changes caused by childbirth
