It is the operation of reducing and correcting the labium minus (inner lips) for reasons that disturb the person aesthetically, such as sagging, large or asymmetrical, excessive darkening.
Some women only want to have this surgery for aesthetic reasons as they do not like the external appearance of their genital organs and are ashamed of their partner. In some women, drooping or large inner lips affect the patient’s normal life and/or sexual life comfort very much. Reasons such as not being able to wear tight clothes, lace underwear, wearing tights and not being able to do sports can create a demand for plastic surgery.
Labiaplasty is a decision that must be made carefully and you must make it together with your doctor. Maybe it is due to a medical problem that bothers you, or the operation may not be suitable for you. Sometimes, we may recommend a psychological consultation before the surgery in order to
understand that the patient’s expectations are correct and realistic. Please note that even after the operation, you may not achieve the results you expect.
Labiaplasty can be performed with general anesthesia or, according to your preference, with local anesthesia. In the meantime, you can sleep with light sleeping pills. In the surgery performed in the lithotomy position (birth pose), the excess labial tissues are repaired after cutting with a scalpel or laser. Thin, self-dissolving sutures are used as sutures. The entire process takes about 2 hours. You don’t need to be hospitalized very often.
You will need to put ice on your stitches during the first day. You will have antibiotics and pain relievers to use, as well as a sterilizing solution for dressing the stitches and an antibiotic cream to apply to the wound. You will need to continue the ice application at intervals for 72 hours.
Pain can last up to two weeks. At the end of 2 weeks, pain, bruising and swelling are usually completely gone. It takes up to a month for the skin to fully heal. In this process, prevent your wound from getting germs by making your dressings meticulously. Avoid pressure on the wound by wearing loose and comfortable clothing and underwear. We do not recommend doing intense exercises, yoga, pilates for a month and a half. Also, remember, there will be a one-month absolute ban on sexual intercourse.
