Effectiveness of labiaplasty to achieve “Barbie” style area, and realistic cost estimates? (Photo)

August 23, 2022
Asked By:SelfConscious94 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I am a 27 year old female from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I find sex painful, and have always had to use excessive lube in order to achieve penetration. I’ve always been extremely self conscious of my body, especially the size of my labia minora. I am considering this surgery for next year, but am unsure how reasonable my expectations are for my body. I understand that “Barbie” surgery may not work for everyone, and should not remove too much tissue. I have no children, weigh ~190, and am 5’7”.
