Labiaplasty in Orange County

For women concerned with the outward appearance of their genitalia, labiaplasty is a surgical procedure to reduce the amount of excess tissue in the vaginal area. This can apply to the inner tissue, known as the labia minora, or the outer tissue, known as the labia majora. While this condition can develop following pregnancy, it can also be inherent or gene-related.

What is a Labiaplasty?

Women with excessive tissue in the labia can experience a number of physical and psychological problems. It can cause significant discomfort and irritation during physical activity, such as jogging. It may also cause discomfort during sexual intercourse. Additionally, the appearance of excessive tissue in the labia may cause introversion. Labial reduction, otherwise known as labiaplasty, is the perfect solution for women experiencing any of the above. For patients seeking labiaplasty in Orange County, Dr. Esmailian offers precision skills to give you the results you deserve.

Benefits of Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty provides a number of benefits for women who would like to change the shape, size, or appearance of their labia. Benefits of labiaplasty include the following:

A more aesthetic, symmetrical female genitalia
Better sexual comfort
Enhanced sexual pleasure
Better comfort during exercise
Better comfort and confidence when wearing tight clothing or swimsuits
Improved female hygiene
More sexual confidence

Candidates for labiaplasty

Women who are unhappy with the appearance or feeling of larger or asymmetrical labia are likely candidates for a labiaplasty procedure. Many women find labiaplasty to be a life-changing procedure that increases confidence and comfort.

Ideal candidates for labiaplasty in Orange County should meet the following requirements:

Are 18 years old or older
Are generally in good health
Do not smoke
Have asymmetrical labia
Have overly large, protruding, or prominent labia
Are self-conscious about their labia
Have sexual concerns due to the size and shape of the labia
Have torn or stretched labia due to vaginal childbirth
Have sagging, enlarged or elongated labia due to age
Sitting, exercise, sex, and/or tight-fitting clothing, cause twisting, pain, or discomfort

Cost of Labiaplasty

The cost of labiaplasty varies from person to person depending on their needs and aesthetic goals. The complexity of the procedure will determine the cost of labiaplasty for each case.

The Labiaplasty Procedure

Because labiaplasty is restricted to a small portion of the body, it is usually performed under local anesthesia, with the patient awake. It may be done using a general anesthetic when it is combined with other, more comprehensive cosmetic procedures.

Once an anesthetic is applied, Dr. Esmailian can address any excess tissue in the labia. Both the labia majora and labia minora are treated and reduced according to a previous discussion between you and Dr. Esmailian. He will leave enough tissue in the labia minora to ensure the vaginal opening is closed while the patient is standing.

Recovery After Labiaplasty

A labiaplasty is not very invasive, and the recovery period is minimal. Sexual intercourse can resume within one month following your labiaplasty in Los Alamitos, and sometimes sooner depending upon how much tissue was excised. Initial swelling will decrease within the first weeks following the procedure.
