Hi I just wanted to know if I can remve the area that is dark? The labia minora. I read that skin near the clitoris can be used to replace labia minora to make sure its just not a opening without a labia minora.

Answer: Can I remove the labia minora only? HI veva, I think that you can remove some of the labia minora, most of which is the dark colored part. I would not, however, remove too much as you will be unhappy with the result. You could also potentially have irritation of the area if your surgeons removes too much tissue. The clitoral hood could be shortened just a bit as well. If you do not want the hood touched at all, just discuss this with your surgeon. Be sure to visit with a surgeon in your area who does many of these types of procedures. Hope this helps a bit. Best, Dr. Christine Rodgers

Answer: Labiaplasty - can I remove the labia minora? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. Although you can not remove all of the labia minora you could reduce the tissues to minimize the amount of darker tissue present.
