Should I Choose to Have a Labiaplasty?

Cosmetic surgery is a personal choice, and patients often have a diverse array of reasons for why they select a certain operation. Vaginal rejuvenation is no different. Labiaplasty can be performed to address aesthetic concerns, functional concerns, or a combination of the two. Our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Steven Yarinsky, emphasizies that there may be more factors involved in this decision than many people at first realize. In response to the question “Should I choose to have a labiaplasty?”, Dr. Yarinsky says:

“Some women just don’t like the appearance of their prominent labia. Others are bothered by chafing, traction, and irritation with intercourse, or when wearing tight clothing. Exercising can put pressure on the groin, particularly activities like bike riding or spinning. Still, others complain of hygiene problems such as a diverted spray when urinating or difficulty ‘keeping clean.’ Other women have combination issues and concerns.

“It’s important to know, help is available to provide you with reduced labia size, improved symmetry, and a relief of symptoms caused by prominent labia minora. Speak to a plastic surgeon who is an expert in labiaplasty for the best results! Be sure to see his patients’ before and after photos to be sure you like the results you see before committing!”
