The reasons why we do labiaplasty are two reasons. One is a functional issue. The woman complains of physical activity, riding a bicycle or working out at the gym, causes irritation and swelling, inflammation in that area, or chaffing. Sometimes they have difficulty with sexual intercourse, where the labia gets pulled, and obviously it's unpleasant. The other major reason why we do this surgery is psychological. Many women feel embarrassed even to be intimate with their husbands or boyfriends because of this, and they cannot really enjoy sexual intimacy because of a perceived abnormality.
