I am self conscious at times of the appearance of my labia. So I’m wondering if a labiaplasty is necessary or would greatly improve my life and outweigh the risks associated.

Answer: Do I need labiaplasty Thank you for your questionThe answer is that there is no normal when it comes to labia so whether or not you need a labiaplasty totally depends on your self consciousness. Many women feel much better about themselves after labiaplasty and only you can judge whether it would improve your life. One thing to note from your photos is that much of what you are concerned about is prepuce( there two pair of labia: a lower pair that inserts into the clitoris and a second pair called prepuce which forms the hood and can insert into and often overwhelm the lower pair). You would need to find a surgeon who understands the anatomy and how to reduce the prepuce along with the labia. Do your homework. You can get more info from the video below

Answer: Optional procedure Labiaplasty is an optional procedure that you can choose to undergo if you believe it would improve your appearance, and possibly comfort, by reducing enlarged or prominent labia minora. This is something you would have to decide for yourself, however. You can discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon and determine whether this procedure is right for you.

Answer: Labiaplasty Hello there, Thank you for your question.While your anatomy seems well within normal limits, some women choose to change the shape of their labia/clitoral hood. I think you would be a great candidate for a labiaplasty - I do think that you should also consider a clitoral hood reduction at the same time in order to avoid a 'top heavy' appearance. Hope that helps! Sincerely,Jennifer Adams MD, FRCSC
