LABIAPLASTY EXPLAINED:
Dr Charlotte Ying speaks on the most commonly asked questions about the Labiaplasty process and what you can expect when you visit EYDIS Aesthetics.
What Exactly Is A Labiaplasty?
The labia are the folds of skin or ‘lips’ at the entrance to the vagina. Labiaplasty usually refers to reduction or reshaping of the labia minora (the inner lips) however many women also request changes to their labia majora (outer lips), clitoral hood and/or mons pubis (the pubic mound is the triangular area of skin and fat overlying the pubic bone which is covered by pubic hair).

What to expect after labiaplasty surgery?
- Labiaplasty surgery is usually done as a day case under general anaesthetic. Most patients can go home the same day with a support person.
- When you wake up after the operation you should have minimal pain as local anaesthetic will have been administered into the area. The anaesthetic lasts for about 6-12 hours.
- Pain/discomfort varies considerably from person to person. Medication to relieve pain will be prescribed.
- There will be swelling and bruising after labiaplasty surgery. This will gradually subside over 1-2 weeks.
- You will wear a sanitary pad for the first few days after surgery.
- Most patients return to work after 4-7 days, depending on the nature of work. More physically demanding jobs will take slightly longer to return to.
- No lifting and no exercising for 4-6 weeks. Contact sports and sexual activity can usually resume after about 6 weeks.
Possible risks and complications:
All surgeries carry risk. Although uncommon, it is important that all patients understand the possible risks and complications associated with labiaplasty surgery. These will be discussed in detail with you during your consultation with Dr Ying, and include, but are not limited to:
Bruising, swelling, pain, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, asymmetrical results, seroma, skin loss, skin loosening, bleeding, haematoma, wrinkling, urinary retention, painful intercourse, infection, undercorrection/overcorrection, changes in sensation, poor scarring, nerve damage, wound breakdown, allergic reactions, stroke and/or heart attack, and atelectasis.
PLEASE NOTE
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
