<strong>Labiaplasty</strong> Surgery<br />

Pregnancy and labour can cause permanent changes to the size, shape and<br />

tone of a women’s labia. This can often be a functional concern related to<br />

hygiene or an aesthetic concern when wearing more intimate apparel.<br />

<strong>Labiaplasty</strong> reduces the size and shape of the labia minora to address these<br />

issues.<br />

Technique<br />

It is paramount that this procedure is done using meticulous surgical technique when handling the delicate<br />

labial tissue. The labial edges must be repaired very precisely to leave an almost invisible scar hidden along<br />

the natural creases of the labia.<br />

The incisions are closed with dissolving sutures. The sensory nerves relating to erotic sensation in this region<br />

are well away from the operative site, and therefore not affected.<br />

Recovery<br />

<strong>Labiaplasty</strong> is performed under a general anaesthetic and is usually a day only procedure. Most women are<br />

able to return to normal activities after approximately one week. There is usually swelling and bruising in the<br />

genital region for the first few days. and this can be treated with ice packs, rest and simple analgesia.<br />

Patients usually wear a pantyliner to absorb any spotting or light bleeding for approximately a week after<br />

surgery. The stitches are self-dissolving so there is no need for physical removal in this delicate area.<br />

Personal hygiene is extremely important for rapid healing and twice-daily showering or salt baths are essential.<br />

An antibiotic ointment is applied twice daily to the suture line for the first week. We recommend abstinence<br />

from sexual activity for six weeks, to allow adequate healing time. There may be some intermittent sensory<br />

disturbance to the labia for up to 3 months and these may be more acutely felt during your first few menstrual<br />

cycles.<br />

Risks<br />

If you are considering labiablasty, then it is important that you are informed of the potential risks, complications<br />

and side effects of this surgery.<br />

While all care is taken to minimise or totally avoid these complications and side effects, complications may<br />

and do occur despite the best medical care. It is important that you carefully read and understand the risk<br />

factors and they will be discussed in more detail when you have your consultation with your surgeon.<br />
