Labia reduction surgery, also known as labiaplasty or labioplasty, has become the most common female genital cosmetic surgery procedure. It is typically the labia minora, the smaller inside pair of labia “lips”, which cause functional and/or aesthetic issues. Many women seek to reduce the excess skin on this part of the genitalia because it protrudes past the outer labia (labia majora). This procedure is often performed together with vaginal tightening for complete rejuvenation.

There are different surgical techniques that Dr. Jugenburg can perform to reduce the excess tissue on your labia. During your initial consultation, Dr. Jugenburg will discuss these options with you. In order to ensure your safety and maximize the benefits of your surgery, it is essential that Dr. Jugenburg evaluate your labia minora in conjunction with the other parts of your vulva, including the size and shape of your outer labia, clitoris and clitoral hood. Based on his evaluation and your own preferences, Dr. Jugenburg may recommend that the protruding labia be trimmed. Alternatively, a wedge of tissue may be removed to achieve labia reduction. Both techniques can produce beautiful aesthetic results and enhance the comfort you experience during sexual intercourse, sports or daily activities.

Recovery after a labia reduction

As with any surgical procedure, there is a period of recovery following labia surgery. But you can begin your recovery in the luxurious comfort of our cosmetic surgery clinic, located in the prestigious Fairmont Royal York Hotel in Toronto. You will be able to go home shortly after surgery but this does not imply that you are ready to hit the gym. Your activity will have to be limited and you should avoid sexual intercourse or any pressure on the labia for six weeks. There is commonly bruising, swelling and minor discomfort after a labia reduction but these will subside if you follow the postoperative guidelines provided by Dr. Jugenburg. Remember that the healing process is gradual. But your patience will be rewarded by the beautiful results!
