There are two types of Labiaplasty surgery:

  1. Labia minora (inner vaginal lips) reduction: Large labia minora can cause problems with sexual activity, wearing certain clothing, sporting activities and exercise.  This type of labiaplasty surgery “labia minora reduction” is often referred to simply as “labiaplasty”.
  2. Labia Majora (outer vaginal lips) Reduction: Often caused by childbirth, weight gain or loss or a woman can develop a large labia majora. Liposuction of the labia majora (labia majora reduction) will greatly improve the look and cosmetic appearance as well as comfort level.

Labiaplasty plastic surgery is performed by the Ivy League trained board certified plastic surgeon at her surgical suite On Upper East Side in Manhattan, NYC. Dr. Mahmood expertly creates a symmetrical and natural result while our staff makes sure the patient is comfortable throughout the entire procedure.

The goals of Dr. Mahmood’s vaginal rejuvenation procedures is to:

  • Preserve or restore the natural contour.
  • Remove excess skin and tissue.
  • Retain pleasurable sensation in the area.
  • Achieve minimal patient downtime and scarring.

There are two labiaplasty plastic surgery techniques that Dr. Mahmood uses for the labiaplasty procedure.

  1. Trim technique
    The trim technique is the most widely used labiaplasty method. This technique creates a very thin incision that is hidden within the fold of the labia and removes the redundant edge of the inner labia. This approach symmetry between the inner and outer labia. An additional benefit of the trim technique is it trims the darkest part of the labia which, for many women, is a leading cosmetic consideration for the procedure.
  2. Wedge technique
    The wedge technique is an alternative to the trim. This approach calls for the removal of a “wedge” from both sides of the labia and then stitches the remaining edges together using dissolvable sutures.

Labiaplasty plastic surgery is commonly performed with topical and local anesthetic (to numb the area completely) without  IV sedation however, IV sedation can be arranged for patients that request it.

Recovery & aftercare
Mild discomfort at the surgical site will typically resolve over the course of the first week. For 48 hours after labiaplasty, patients should intermittently ice the area and elevate their hips on pillows.
