Labiaplasty, a surgical procedure to alter the labia minora or majora, is typically not recommended for minors unless there are specific medical or psychological reasons. The age at which it might be considered varies depending on factors such as physical development, emotional maturity, and medical necessity. However, it’s generally recommended that individuals wait until they have reached physical maturity before undergoing elective cosmetic surgeries like labiaplasty. Additionally, it’s essential for individuals to thoroughly discuss their reasons for seeking the procedure with a qualified healthcare provider who can assess their physical and psychological well-being before making any decisions.
