The Basics of a Washington, DC Labiaplasty 

The Consultation Labiaplasty Procedure DCLabiaplasty Procedure DC

Every patient’s body is different and requires its own personalized plan of action. Before the procedure, our doctors will talk to you about the following considerations:

  • Labia asymmetry
  • Labial sagging
  • Labial reshaping
  • Labial resizing
  • Lifestyle and activity levels

The Procedure

Once you and your doctor have outlined what you want your results to look like, you will discuss which procedure is right for you. You may either move forward with a labia majora or labia minora labiaplasty. The labia majora procedure involves reducing the size and shape of the outer lips of your vagina. The labia minora procedure reduces the size and shape of the inner lips.

In both procedures, these reductions are typically made using the trim technique or the wedge technique. During the trim technique, the plastic surgeon removes excess skin around the outer edge of the labia. During the wedge technique, a v-shaped “wedge” is cut out of the labia at the widest point then the edges are stitched together. Your doctor will determine which technique is best for you during your consultation.

A labiaplasty may take as little as 45 minutes to an hour. While many patients elect to undergo general anesthesia for extra comfort, it is also possible to perform the procedure using a local anesthetic if this is your preference.

The Recovery

Recovery from labiaplasties are considered minimal, but it is recommended to hold off on any significant or strenuous lower body exercise for several weeks. This procedure involves delicate tissues that require being well cared for during the healing process. Healing may take up to 4 to 6 weeks. At-home remedies like ice packs, elevation, and OTC or prescribed medications will help with the discomfort and pain.

The Labiaplasty Procedure: What to Expect from Start to FinishDr. Brown preforming a labiaplasty

The labiaplasty procedure takes place in a pretty sensitive area. It is important to us that you understand what the surgery will look like.

The labiaplasty procedure uses a variety of different surgical methods, all determined by what outcome you are looking for. Before the surgery, you will have at least one consultation with your surgeon to determine the best way to get the outcome you want.

The surgery is often some combination of trimming and reshaping of the labia. The whole procedure should take between 45 minutes to an hour, depending on what outcome you are looking for.

The recovery is very minor. Recovery time is minimal, but you should not perform any lower body exercises for at least two weeks after the surgery or until your surgeon give you the ‘okay.’ Most women start seeing results in the weeks and months after their procedure as the swelling reduces and scars diminish.

DC Labiaplasty: What to Expect During Your Procedure

If you’re feeling self-conscious, uncomfortable, or pain around your vaginal area, DC labiaplasty might be the right procedure for you. This procedure improves cosmetic and health concerns by resizing the labia minora and/or labia majora. By undergoing this procedure, you can significantly reduce the discomfort you feel when wearing tight clothes, exercising, or sexual intercourse.

About DC Labiaplasty & The Benefits of the Procedure

Labiaplasty typically results in shorter labia that no longer hang down below the level of the hair-bearing labia majora.

There are two main types of labiaplasty:

  1. Labia majora: reduces the size and shape of the outer lips of your vagina
  2. Labia minora: reduces the size and shape of the inner lips

These reductions are typically made using the trim technique or the wedge technique. During the trim technique, the plastic surgeon removes excess skin around the outer edge of the labia. During the wedge technique, a v-shaped “wedge” is cut out of the labia at the widest point then the edges are stitched together.

According to multiple studies, this procedure is associated with a high satisfaction rate of over 90 percent.

Most patients who experienced symptoms from twisting and tugging of their labia, or discomfort during certain kinds of physical activity or intercourse, generally find relief after surgery.

Most Common Reasons for Labiaplasty in DC:

  • Pain wearing tight clothes due to overly large labia
  • You want a better sexual experience
  • Pain during intercourse due to excessively large labia or sexual avoidance due to anticipated pain associated with intercourse
  • Pain while riding a horse or bicycle due to excessively large labia
  • Labial sagging and/or you want your vulva region to look more youthful
  • Labia Minora extending well beyond the Labia Majora
  • Labial asymmetry or enlargement
  • You just don’t like the appearance of your labia

Vaginal anatomy varies considerably and can also change over time, particularly after childbirth. Since the labia are small and very sensitive structures, the labiaplasty surgery needs to be performed by expert plastic surgeons such as the doctors at Bruno | Brown Plastic Surgery, who have significant experience in performing labiaplasty surgery.

Should You Consider a Labiaplasty Procedure in Washington, DC?

If you suffer from physical discomfort during exercise and other daily activities due to excess labial tissue, a Labiaplasty procedure in Washington, DC may be the right choice for you.

Labiaplasty can reduce the size of both the labia minora and labia majora.

Labiaplasty in Washington, DC

Some women choose a Labiaplasty procedure because they feel insecure about the shape, size, or appearance of their labia. Excess tissue can result from significant weight loss or pregnancy and can cause the labia to be asymmetrical or cause the labia minora to extend beyond the labia majora.

Both the physical and emotional discomfort of loose or hanging labial tissue leads many women to choose Labiaplasty. This physical discomfort is most often experienced as pain during athletic activities such as cycling or horseback riding, pain from tight clothes, or pain from intercourse due to the size of the labia. This could even lead to sexual avoidance from anticipated painful intercourse.

Labiaplasty can take as little as 45 minutes with minimal recovery time. However, it is recommended to hold off on any significant or strenuous lower body exercise for several weeks. While many patients elect to undergo general anesthesia for extra comfort, it is also possible to perform the procedure using a local anesthetic if this is your preference.

What are the benefits of Labiaplasty?

  1. Comfort: After surgery, many women often experience increased comfort during athletic activities, such as cycling or horseback riding. Also, there is typically a decrease in irritation from tight clothing like yoga pants or bathing suits. Reducing the length of the labia prevents it from being twisted or tugged on by tight clothing or irritated by rigorous workouts.
  2. Appearance: Over time the appearance of the labia can change dramatically particularly after undergoing significant life events such as childbirth. Labiaplasty allows women to reshape their labia to increase self-confidence, aesthetic appeal, and create a more youthful look.
  3. Increased sexual pleasure: After surgery, there is often an increase in sexual pleasure as excessively large labia can cause pain during intercourse or even lead to sexual avoidance due to the anticipated pain of intercourse. Additionally, the clitoris can become more exposed leading to an increase in sexual pleasure.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, multiple studies indicate that Labiaplasty surgery is associated with a high satisfaction rate. Choose a board certified plastic surgeon you can trust, like the doctors at Bruno | Brown Plastic Surgery, who have significant experience performing Labiaplasty surgery. The skills of your plastic surgeon translate directly to your plastic surgery results. The labia are very small, delicate structures so it is particularly important to choose a board-certified plastic surgeon for this procedure.
