Answer: Can my labiaplasty be done under local anesthesia and would my insurance cover the cost? Hi bodybuilder, Yes, your labia minora reduction certainly can be done under local anesthesia, whether it be a trim or wedge technique. I doubt that insurance would cover the procedure as it appears to be a cosmetic reshaping of your labia minora. I have never had an insurance cover this procedure over the past ten years. Please visit with a surgeon, either a plastic surgeon or a urogynecologist in you area who can give you a physical exam and discuss your best options. Best Wishes, Dr. Christine Rodgers

Answer: Yes, and it depends Yes, labiaplasty can be done under local anesthesia in the office quite comfortably. Insurance coverage depends on your insurance plan, as with everything, but in my experience it's rare and only for severely hypertrophied labia that cause functional issues.
