Things to Know About Labia Reduction
The topic of labiaplasty is rarely discussed openly, but many women may feel dissatisfied with the appearance of their intimate area. To alleviate feelings of discomfort or shame, some women choose to undergo labia reduction surgery. As a practice specializing in aesthetic and plastic surgery, we are committed to explaining what this procedure entails and what is meant by labiaplasty.

What is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty, also known as labia reduction, is a surgical procedure within the field of intimate surgery, typically performed for cosmetic reasons. The surgery involves reducing the size of the labia minora, and in some cases, completely removing excess tissue. Reduction of the labia majora is less common.
What Happens During Labiaplasty?
During labiaplasty, our experienced specialist in plastic and aesthetic surgery removes excess tissue from the labia with precise incisions. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia; general anesthesia is not necessary.
Reasons for a Labia Reduction
Labia reduction is often sought for aesthetic reasons, as some women are uncomfortable with the appearance of their labia minora, especially when they are too pronounced and cause discomfort in tight clothing or swimwear. Additionally, factors such as aging, childbirth, and genetics can lead to enlarged labia, causing physical discomfort or psychological stress. Excessively large labia can also result in friction, leading to soreness, skin irritation, and an increased risk of infections.
The Labiaplasty Procedure
There are various techniques for labiaplasty. Our specialist uses a scalpel to carefully remove excess tissue. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and due to the meticulous work of our surgeon, the results are aesthetically pleasing with reduced risk of post- operative complications like bleeding.
Free Consultation Before Labia Reduction Surgery
We offer a free consultation where our specialist will discuss the procedure, potential risks, and conduct an examination to determine if surgery is advisable. You will be informed about the type of anesthesia recommended and how to care for the wound post-surgery.
Aftercare of a Labia Reduction
Post-operative care includes taking simple painkillers, avoiding those containing acetylsalicylic acid (such as Aspirin), and using gentle sitz baths with a lukewarm chamomile solution. Light disinfectant ointments may also be recommended. It's important to maintain good hygiene and avoid aggressive cleaning of the area. If you experience any issues, our specialist is available for follow-up care.
