Labiaplasty surgery is a very personal decision. It can be performed on almost any woman who feels the inner or outer lips of the labia protrude too far. There are many reasons to get this procedure, from the desire to feel more confident in your own skin to the need for improved sensation and function during sex.

WHAT IS LABIAPLASTY?
It's normal for labia size to increase due to childbirth and natural aging. Even genetics can lead to lax skin and vaginal looseness over time. Labiaplasty is a procedure that reduces or reshapes the inner or outer lips of the vagina, also called the labia minora and labia majora. Surgery is often done for cosmetic purposes but can also help with issues like pain and discomfort. During your appointment with Dr. Schwartz, we can review your goals for labiaplasty and develop a personalized plan for before and after labiaplasty.
WHO'S A CANDIDATE FOR LABIAPLASTY?
Any woman who feels her labia looks or feels abnormal can benefit from labiaplasty surgery. For example, a labia that protrudes too far can cause pain during sex or limit your ability to participate in certain sports, like biking. Enlarged inner or outer lips can rub against clothing, causing chafing and irritation. You may even avoid tight-fitting clothing, like yoga pants or bathing suits. If you experience chronic discomfort due to your labia, then labiaplasty can help. This surgery in Beverly Hills, CA can not only improve your quality of life but confidence levels as well.
