Wedge Method Vs Trim Method for Labiaplasty?

I am 19 years old and have been dealing with the discomfort of having large labia since puberty. I am uncomfortable when I am exercising, and sometimes just sitting or walking around. I find it difficult to keep clean and am worried that it will pose a sexual problem in the near future when I get married and become intimate with my husband.

What are the pros and cons of having a labiaplasty using the "wedge method" vs "the trim method"? I am in the process of having consultations and was interested in hearing more pros and cons of the different methods. Also, I am a college student so I am in classes, should 6-7 days be enough recovery? I am looking into having this done over spring break. Thank you.

A: Labiaplasty

There is a place for both techniques and I use them when they are indicated. The real question is where there is excess tissue and how to reduce and shape the area efficiently with the least scaring. I find that I do a edge excision and hood reduction the most often. The wedge is best for upper excess when the remaining edge is normal in appearance and color. You really need to be evaluated by a surgeon experienced in both techniques and decide with him as to what is best for you. This procedure is very tailored to your anatomy and no one procedure is best for everyone.
