Labiaplasty Los Angeles and Beverly Hills
Dr. Kenneth Hughes, Harvard-trained, board-certified plastic surgeon, performs female rejuvenation procedures including labiaplasty in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills. Some of these procedures are referred to by various names, labiaplasty, labial rejuvenation, vaginaplasty, and vaginal rejuvenation, among others. There is an increasing trend toward women voicing concerns about the appearance of their genitalia.
The mons pubis (pubic mound), the labia majora (outer lips), and the labia minora (inner lips) may all be areas that are amenable to improvement. Mons liposuction can be an important adjunct to decrease the fullness of the pubic region. The labia majora are sometimes addressed if there is an issue of deflation or the perception of bulkiness or fullness in the labia majora. The labia minora (the inner lips) are most frequently addressed due to concerns of enlargement.
Some women experience discomfort during sex or physical activity from enlarged labia, while some women want the appearance of the labia refined. Whatever the reason, Dr. Hughes can reduce and reshape the labia to produce a more refined look to the labia in a simple outpatient procedure.
Trim and Wedge Labiaplasty
There are two basic variations of the labiaplasty, the trim method and the wedge method. Dr. Hughes performs both types and allows the patient to decide based on what appearance she would like to have. The trim method involves removing the outer edge of the labia to reduce it. Thus, in this method, the pigmented border is partially or completely removed. A small cuff of labial tissue is always preserved in either method, usually 8 mm or more. The trim method is closed in a very precise fashion to prevent scalloping or unevenness.
The wedge method preserves the natural border of the labia and thus retains the hyperpigmented border. This method involves removing an internal wedge of tissue to reduce the size of the labia. Though the risk for separation in this method is higher, the border is smooth as this method preserves the natural border.
In addition, the clitoral hood can be reduced as well if indicated. This can be performed in several ways depending upon the amount of laxity and the location of laxity.
Labiaplasty Surgery Day
The procedure takes about 1 hour to perform and the recovery is usually uneventful. Patients must refrain from intercourse, strenuous physical activity, and vigorous cleansing during the first 4 to 6 weeks after surgery to prevent suture line disruption and opening of the incisions.
Other Surgeries Performed with Labiaplasty
Many of the patients who desire labiaplasty may also be interested in vaginoplasty or other surgeries like the mommy makeover surgery. The mommy makeover procedures frequently involve a tummy tuck and breast augmentation along with other surgeries including breast lift, liposuction, and Brazilian buttlift.
