Labiaplasty is a procedure to reshape the labia, most commonly the labia minora, where excess tissue, asymmetry or protrusion causes physical discomfort or personal concern. Some patients experience irritation during exercise, discomfort with clothing or underwear, or ongoing awareness that affects confidence. These concerns may have been present for many years or develop following childbirth, hormonal change or natural variation.

The aim of labiaplasty is to reduce excess tissue while maintaining natural contours, sensitivity and function. Surgery is carefully planned to address proportion and symmetry rather than to achieve a particular aesthetic appearance. Different techniques may be used depending on anatomy and individual concerns, and this is discussed in detail during consultation so expectations are clear and realistic.

Labiaplasty can be performed as a standalone procedure or alongside other surgery where appropriate. Recovery is usually straightforward, but swelling, sensitivity and temporary restrictions are expected while healing takes place. This procedure is best suited to patients seeking improved comfort and reassurance, with a clear understanding of recovery and healing.
