Labia are the two pairs of lips that are at the entrance of the vagina consisting of a labia majora (outer) and labia minora (inner). Labia are the fleshy skin fold located on the vulva.

Many females who suffer from enlarged labia experience difficulty with exercise, hygiene, urinary tract infections, sexual activity, and other physical activity. There are several functional benefits when electing a labiaplasty.

Labiaplasty can be done using either a general anesthetic or a local anesthetic with sedation. It involves shortening or reshaping the vaginal lips. The unwanted tissue is cut away with a scalpel or laser. The loose edge may be stitched with fine, dissolvable stitches. The whole procedure takes about 1 to 2 hours. You can go home on the same day. It can take a couple of months for the skin to fully heal.
