Labiaplasty

Miami Beach Gynecology: Labiaplasty for Vaginal Rejuvenation in Bal Harbour, FL

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape or reduce the size of the labia minora, the inner folds of skin on either side of the vaginal opening.  At Miami Beach Gynecology in Bal Harbour, FL, Dr. Paul Norris offers comprehensive consultations and labiaplasty surgery to address concerns about the appearance of the labia minora and improve comfort during activities.

What is Labiaplasty For?

Women may consider labiaplasty for various reasons, including:

• Enlarged labia minora:  Some women have labia minora that extend beyond the labia majora (outer folds) which can cause discomfort during activities like exercise, intercourse, or wearing tight clothing.
• Asymmetrical labia:  Uneven labia minora can also be a concern for some women.
• Improved self-confidence:  Labiaplasty can address cosmetic concerns and enhance a woman's self-esteem and body image.

It's important to note that the labia minora come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, and what is considered "normal" varies greatly. Labiaplasty is an elective procedure and should not be pursued to achieve a certain aesthetic ideal.  Dr. Paul Norris will discuss your concerns and expectations during your consultation to determine if labiaplasty is the right option for you.

Benefits of Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty can offer several benefits, including:

• Increased comfort during intercourse, exercise, and other activities
• Improved hygiene
• Enhanced self-confidence and body image

Who is a Candidate for Labiaplasty?

Healthy women who are bothered by the appearance or size of their labia minora may be good candidates for labiaplasty. Dr. Paul Norris will consider your medical history, symptoms, and desired outcomes during your consultation to determine your candidacy.

What to Expect During Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty is typically performed as an outpatient procedure in a surgical center. Here's a general overview:

• Anesthesia:  Local anesthesia with sedation is generally used to numb the area and ensure your comfort during the surgery.
• Procedure:  Dr. Paul Norris will make precise incisions to remove excess tissue and reshape the labia minora. The incisions are then closed with sutures.
• Recovery:  You can expect some soreness and swelling after surgery, which typically resolves within a few weeks. Dr. Norris will provide detailed instructions on post-operative care, including pain management, wound care, and avoiding strenuous activity for a period of time.
