What is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty at PryorHealth involves reducing the labia majora, labia minora, or both. It can also address excess tissue around the clitoris.
The overall goal of the labiaplasty procedure is to achieve a more attractive intimate appearance while relieving any discomfort you may experience while wearing clothes or engaging in physical activity. Labiaplasty is an intimate cosmetic surgery that is designed to improve the appearance of a woman’s genitals. It’s a commonly requested procedure after childbirth and as women get older.

Once the procedure is complete, we will transfer you to the recovery room where you will be closely monitored until the anesthesia wears off.
Labiaplasty is a highly customizable procedure with a number of surgical techniques depending on the precise outcomes you want to achieve. During your initial consultation, one of our expert staff will review the different techniques with you in detail to determine which one is in your best interest.
