Reduce discomfort and restore confidence with precise, natural-looking labiaplasty performed by our experienced surgical team. Discreet consultations and personalized care.
What is labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty (labia reduction) is a surgical procedure that reshapes the labia minora and, if desired, addresses the clitoral hood or labia majora to improve comfort, function, and appearance. Women choose labiaplasty for physical reasons—such as chafing, irritation, pain during exercise or intercourse, or hygiene difficulties—as well as for aesthetic concerns or changes after childbirth and aging.
Procedure overview & anesthesia
- Typical setting: Outpatient/day-surgery; patients return home the same day.
- Duration: Usually 1–2 hours depending on complexity and any combined procedures.
- Anesthesia: Local anesthesia with sedation is commonly used; general anesthesia is available based on patient preference and surgical plan. We also offer patient-controlled nitrous oxide (ProNox) in some locations.
Techniques we offer (customized per patient)
- Trim (edge) technique: Trims excess tissue along the labial edge for a streamlined contour.
- Wedge (central) technique: Removes a wedge-shaped section to preserve the natural edge and pigmentation for a more natural result—preferred for some patients with significant asymmetry.
- Clitoral hood reduction and labia majora procedures can be added when indicated.
- Our surgeons select the approach that best balances appearance, function, and sensation preservation.
Before and after the treatment
Combining procedures
Many patients combine labiaplasty with:
- Clitoral hood reduction for a smoother contour
- Labia majora reduction or fat grafting (labia puffing)
- Vaginoplasty or perineoplasty for pelvic floor or childbirth-related changes
- Your surgeon will discuss safety, timing, and expected recovery during your consultation.
Cost & financing
Procedure cost varies based on technique, anesthesia, surgeon fees, facility fees, and whether other procedures are combined. While labiaplasty is often considered elective (cosmetic), some insurance plans may cover part of the cost if a documented medical problem exists. At LuxLipo we provide detailed pricing estimates and offer financing options to make treatment manageable.
labiaplasty FAQ?
How long does labiaplasty take?
Most procedures take about 1–2 hours and are done as an outpatient procedure.
Is labiaplasty painful?
Discomfort is common initially but typically mild to moderate and controlled with medication. Swelling and tenderness resolve progressively.
When can I return to work and exercise?
Many patients return to non-strenuous work within several days. Avoid strenuous exercise and sexual activity for about 4–6 weeks or until your surgeon clears you.
Will insurance cover labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is usually considered cosmetic. Coverage may be possible if the procedure treats documented medical symptoms; check your policy and submit documentation if applicable.
Can labiaplasty affect sexual function?
The goal is to preserve sensation and function. Rarely, sensation changes can occur. Careful technique and surgical planning minimize this risk.
How long do results last?
Results are long lasting; natural aging and life events (e.g., childbirth) can affect appearance over time.
