Beverly Hills Labiaplasty doctors

Although there is no guarantee, women frequently do seek clitoral hood reduction (Hoodectomy) to improve exposure of the clitoris and hence better stimulation during sexual activity. By removing some of the excess &/or redundant skin concealing the clitoris, it becomes more readily exposed to sexual stimulation and hence a heightened sexual experience/orgasm is possible.  The key is seek consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon or gynecologist who performs this procedure regularly (>2-3 x/month) so that just the right amount of tissue is removed and just the right amount remains such that the clitoris is not constantly exposed and rubbing on clothing, etc...  Best of luck...RAS

Indeed with a relatively mature teenager and parental consent it is reasonable to consider and undergo Labiaplasty surgery.  Many times with these two ingredients I have performed labiaplasty for patients as young as 15 -17 years old.  When done properly, these are very satisfying success stories for not only the surgeon but especially the patient who has agonized over the excessive growth of her labia minora.

Labiaplasty, which most commonly involves surgical reduction of the labia minora (inner/thinner lips), has become a relatively common procedure over the last ten and even more so last five years.  Whether the surgery is done using a laser, scalpel, or scissors does not really matter but what does matter is "symmetry".  Symmetry is the most important aspect to the final aesthetic result.  Also, it's not how much tissue is removed but how much is left remaining because a certain amount is necessary to maintain proper form and function.  To achieve these two most important elements, it is extremely important to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon that specializes in this operation (does at least 1 - 2 per week).  It may cost you a bit more but it this type of result you will want to live with for the rest of your life.  Typical (all inclusive) fee at my office/surgery center is $4500.

Now for recovery, because the labia tissue is so robust with blood supply it has an amazing ability to heal relatively quickly.  Most patients are sore for 4-5 days before things start to get a lot better from there.  Some patients can resume work before this time depending upon their occupation.  No exercise for two weeks, no baths/jacuzzi or swimming for 3 weeks, and no sexual activity for typically 4 weeks.  My patients are given an oral pain medication such as Vicodin but icing the area for the first 48 hours and applying some custom  made take-home topical local anesthetic cream seems to work the best.  

Labiaplasty and Vaginoplasty are two totally different procedures done for completely different reasons on different pieces of anatomy.

On the other hand, Vaginoplasty is performed to reconstruct (more or less tighten) the vaginal vault most typically following vaginal deliver child birth.  Again, the experience of the surgeon is the most important element to achieving a good result.  It is indeed possible to have both procedures done at the same time because these tissues have a robust blood supply and resiliency aiding them to heal extremely well relative to most other areas of the body.

Now for recovery, most patients are sore for 4-5 days before things start to get a lot better from there.  Some patients can resume work before this time depending upon their occupation.  No exercise for 2 - 4 weeks, no baths/jacuzzi or swimming for 3 - 4 weeks, and no sexual activity for typically 4 weeks (labiaplasty) - 6 weeks (vaginoplasty).  My patients are given an oral pain medication such as Vicodin but icing the area for the first 48 hours and applying some custom  made take-home topical local anesthetic cream seems to work the best...Best of luck in your search...RAS
