Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that involves altering the labia minora (inner lips) or labia majora (outer lips) of the vulva. The most common type of labiaplasty is the reduction of the labia minora, which are the folds of skin on either side of the vaginal opening.
Women may seek labiaplasty for various reasons, including discomfort or pain during physical activities, irritation, aesthetic concerns, or psychological reasons. The procedure typically involves trimming excess tissue from the labia minora to achieve a more symmetrical and proportionate appearance.
It’s important to note that cosmetic procedures, including labiaplasty, should be approached with careful consideration, and individuals should consult with qualified healthcare professionals to discuss their concerns, expectations, and potential risks before deciding to undergo surgery.
