There's something in all of us, big or small, that we wish we could change. I believe that exceptional plastic surgery should be available to anyone and everyone who wants to make that change.

ANSWER
The best approach for labiaplasty is an Labiaplasty with a hood reduction. One thing to keep in mind: how “tucked in” you can get depends on a few things… 1. How big and full your outer labia are. In some women the outer labia (majora) are thin and short. You might still be able to see some hood and labia when standing even after labiaplasty. 2. How large and protruding the clitoris is. In some ladies the clitoris is long and large and it may not be able to be fully hidden. 3. The gap between the outer labia. This can almost be thought of as cleavage. If the gap is wider then there will be a visible band in the middle when standing after a labiaplasty. To get predictable results you need a surgeon who has cared for hundreds and hundreds of patients with large labia. Be very selective and make sure they understand your specific anatomy before choosing. They should have photos and videos and lots of reviews. (Check Reddit too)

This is the reason why I no longer perform the wedge Labiaplasty. All of my Labiaplasty Surgery is done with the Edge approach and a hood reduction. Wedge Labiaplasty procedures tend to split. There is tension on the closure and friction leads to separation in many cases. The edge labiaplasty issuperior and the outcomes are better. from the photos above, there is sufficient tissue to perform a proper revision to get an excellent outcome.

You’re an anatomist! I think it’s great to have a solid understanding of our own bodies. The detail of the vulva is different in every patient and it requires a different approach while still using the same overall pattern. Seek out the best surgeons in the world to help with your specific goals and let them worry on your behalf.

Your drawings are the drawings for a clitoral hood reduction! I perform a hood reduction on every one of my Labiaplasty procedures. It is standard. If this area is not also reduced—as you call it, the prepuce, or as I generally say the clitoral hood— then you will have an imbalanced look with puffiness and fullness on the top part of the vulva. An experienced surgeon will understand all of the nuances of your unique anatomy and will be able to perform an expert Labiaplasty. Having performed over 600 of these procedures I would be honored to help and have patients from all over the country in the world come into Orlando, Florida For my expert care.

It doesn’t appear that you had any hood reduction. A Labiaplasty with hood reduction is one single procedure in my opinion and most every woman who seeks out a Labiaplasty would benefit from a clitoral reduction. Many doctors are afraid to perform this surgery and having done over 600 Labiaplasty procedures I not exactly certain as to why. Perhaps they don’t have as much experience or as much of an understanding of the pertinent anatomy. Find a doctor with extensive experience with Labiaplasty so you can get a revision and get the results that you want.

ANSWER
Labiaplasty with hood reduction is a technical procedure. I think of it like origami. Parts need to be cut, released, and folded into place to create symmetry and a natural appearance. Not every surgeon is equally skilled and even more importantly, equally thoughtful/patient/fastidious about their results. In patients who have a trim labiaplasty with scissors, the labia can have a “scalloped” appearance: too little removed at the bottom and top (the frenulum) and too much removed in the middle. The frenulum is very sensitive at baseline because it is the wishbone-like structure that extends from the bottom portion of the clitoris. This needs to be tailored smoothly so that there are no angles to the remaining tissue. When closing the labia, I use a running subcuticular suture. The suture is dissolvable and is completely buried under the surface of the skin so there are no track marks ridges or suture marks that can leave uneven and irregular scarring. It’s important to find a very delicate surgeon in the process of a Labiaplasty. As I tell my patients, they have only one worry: to find the right doctor. after that the worrying is mine.

I offer complementary revisions on any and all labiaplasty/hood reduction procedures at no charge for all of my patients. Revisions are so rare that I consider it my postopp promise that you will be happy with the results. Small asymmetries are rare in my practice but if a patient is not fully satisfied then neither am I.

And just look at the results of the doctor. Choosing a surgeon is like commissioning a piece of artwork. Arguably the most important and finest piece of artwork you will ever behold: yourself and your own beauty. So that makes this easy. Look at the work. Does it look pretty to you? Would you want your own body to look like that? Once you decide that the doctor has an excellent understanding of universal beauty (and there is such a thing, though I’m not sure exactly why god chose certain elements of beauty—despite some evolutionary-based and reproductive fitness clues) then the pressure is off you and on THEM. They have to do the worrying about how they are going to make you beautiful happy and safe.

This is the second most common place for the vagina to tear during childbirth, the first being in the perineum. I’ve seen frenulum tears before, and I’ve had success repairing them, but the tissue is very delicate, and it often means more of a reconstructive approach compared to a simple repair. When you’re having a labiaplasty, some tissue is removed, but in your case instead of removing that tissue, it can be folded under to buttress or reinforce the repair of the laceration, which is most likely what this injury is as opposed to something caused by a doctor. So definitely find a surgeon who has a lot of experience with labiaplasty and will know how to use the “spare parts” from the labiaplasty to help reinforce the closure. Tears like this are quite tender because the frenulum which attaches directly to the clitoris is actually quite sensitive and so it’s essentially like a raw nerve ending at the end of the tear. The clitoris actually has more of a wishbone type shape and so you basically have a cut right at one edge of the wishbone. At least that’s one way to conceptualize it. Seems like it’s time for you to get this done so find someone good you’ll be fine.

Just like the case of reducing extra skin anywhere on the body, a labiaplasty poses little to no permanent risk. The true risk of a labiaplasty depends on the skill of the surgeon. Period. Therefore your only task is to find a genuine labiaplasty expert: a doctor who has performed hundreds and hundreds of labiaplasty procedures. In the 350 labiaplasty surgeries I have performed, none of my patients have had loss of sensation. None of my patients have had painful scars after labiaplasty. None have had pain with intercourse. And none of my labiaplasty patients have had clitoral numbness or difficulty with orgasm.
