How Much Does Labiaplasty Cost?

I have looked at labiaplasty before and after pictures on this site and I am very impressed by the difference it can make. But how much would a labiaplasty cost? I would guess it takes a lot of skill to do a labiaplasty right because it is such a sensitive area so it is probably very expensive.

A: Labiaplasty, not as expensive as you thought

The cost of any procedure has 3 components:

  • surgeon's fee
  • anesthesia fee
  • facility fee

As many labiaplasties can be performed under local anesthesia in a properly equipped physician's office, the facility and anesthesia costs get significantly. If the operating room and anesthesia are required, it will add to the cost, but these procedures are rather short in length. The average labiaplasty performed in the office costs around $3000.

This procedure is well tolerated and patients are very satisfied with the results.

Pro-Bono Labiaplasty?

Im only 20 years old and am EXTREMELY subconscious about my labias. I will not have intercourse, because of how I feel and the thought of how they look. It hurts when I ride a bike, when I wear tight jeans or sit in certain positions it hurts. Does any have the heart to help me out? I don't have a co signer for financing nor can I afford it. Its depressing.

A: Labiaplasty

I agree with Dr. Placik. If there is a teaching hospital with plastic surgery residents, there may be an opportunity to have it done by one of the residents in training under the supervision of a board certified plastic surgeon. There are 4 training programs in Florida:

  • University of Miami
  • University of South Florida, Tampa
  • University of Florida, Gainesville
  • Cleveland Clinic, Weston

Good luck.
