Am I a good candidate for Labiaplasty Surgery?
This procedure can provide both cosmetic and functional benefits, leading to a more proportionate and comfortable result. It’s ideal for patients who have experienced changes to the labia due to aging, childbirth, or genetics, and are looking for a solution to improve both their confidence and comfort. Dr. Hadaegh will also determine if you are a good candidate during your consultation.
Your Labiaplasty Consultation
During your consultation, Dr. Hadaegh will answer any of your questions, discuss your goals and concerns, and will present all of your treatment options. Your eligibility for labiaplasty surgery will be based on your goals, overall health, medical history, and a thorough physical examination. This examination will also ensure that Dr. Hadaegh can best customize your treatment plan. A comprehensive review of your medical history will be done to ensure a clear understanding of any potential contraindications or health considerations related to the labiaplasty procedure.
Dr. Hadaegh will also provide a detailed overview of the potential risks and benefits of labiaplasty surgery, emphasizing the importance of informed consent and empowering you to make educated decisions.
Preparing for a Labiaplasty
Before your labiaplasty, Dr. Hadaegh will thoroughly review your medical history, discuss any medications you’re taking (such as blood thinners), and perform a physical examination to assess your unique needs. He will take the time to discuss your goals and expectations, ensuring that the procedure is tailored to provide the best possible results.
In preparation for surgery, Dr. Hadaegh may recommend avoiding certain medications and stopping the use of tobacco and alcohol to minimize the risk of complications. It’s important to arrange for someone to drive you home after the procedure, as you will not be able to do so yourself.
the procedure
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes the labia minora (inner vaginal lips) and/or labia majora (outer vaginal lips). It is often sought by women who experience discomfort due to excess tissue, irritation during physical activity, or dissatisfaction with the appearance of their labia.
Here’s a breakdown of the two primary components:
- Labia Minora Reduction: This technique focuses on reducing the size of the inner vaginal lips, which can cause discomfort, chafing, or interfere with certain activities like exercise or sexual intercourse. By carefully trimming excess tissue, Dr. Hadaegh can create a more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing contour.
- Labia Majora Reduction or Enhancement: For those seeking changes to the outer vaginal lips, Dr. Hadaegh can remove excess skin for a more youthful appearance or, in some cases, enhance volume using fat transfer for improved symmetry and balance.
At Aesthetic Plastic Surgery North Shore, labiaplasty is performed with precision and care, often under local anesthesia with sedation. Dr. Hadaegh will carefully reshape the labial tissue to achieve the desired outcome, ensuring minimal scarring and a natural appearance. The incisions are typically made along the natural contours of the labia to conceal them as much as possible, resulting in smoother, more proportionate labia.
The procedure usually takes about 1 to 2 hours, depending on the extent of the surgery, and patients can typically return home the same day with post-operative instructions for a smooth recovery.
