What is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is a type of surgical vaginal rejuvenation that reshapes the vulva for cosmetic reasons.
Brandon Lambiris MD is a caring and compassionate Sarasota Labiaplasty surgeon who has studied the anatomy and aesthetics of the female genitalia through extensive training as a plastic and reconstructive surgeon.
Keeping in mind your unique preferences, he can improve the appearance of the vulva using the least-invasive surgical techniques performed on an outpatient basis at his private medical practice in Sarasota County.
Labiaplasty is a type of surgical vaginal rejuvenation that reshapes the vulva for cosmetic reasons.
The ideal candidate for a labiaplasty is a healthy nonsmoker who has realistic expectations and goals. Unfortunately, pregnancy and certain medical conditions may disqualify some individuals from having elective surgery.
Trim labia reduction involves removing excess tissue along the edges of the labia. This technique corrects unwanted protrusion, so the labia are in anatomic alignment.
The wedge technique removes a crescent-shaped segment from the center of the elongated labia. It is ideally suited to patients who have redundant vertical and horizontal skin on the labia as might occur after extreme weight loss.
Many of our Sarasota Labiaplasty patients have seen long-lasting results as well as numerous physical and emotional benefits that may include:
The term ‘vulva’ is a general term that refers to all of the structures that make up the external female genitalia. Different parts of the vulvar anatomy that may be of cosmetic concern can include:
Labiaplasty may accompany monsplasty, a surgical procedure that resects hanging skin on the mons following weight loss or multiple pregnancies. Monsplasty (also known as a pubic lift) effectively tightens the skin above the pubic bone and can also correct obstruction of the vaginal area.
Suppose the skin overlying the mons pubis has good elasticity, but there is excessive fat causing an unwanted bulge or protrusion of the mons region. In that case, mons liposuction may be all that is needed. Surgical fat reduction is an effective means of achieving a flatter mons area, as many patients store fat in this region due to hereditary reasons or hormones.
Dr. Lambiris strives to deliver the best lapiaplasty Sarasota has to offer and does the procedure on an outpatient basis. Depending on the extent of the procedure, he administers general anesthesia or local anesthetic with oral sedation for total comfort. After marking the skin, he resects the excess tissue and sutures the incisions closed. He finishes the operation by placing sterile bandages to keep the wound free of contamination as it heals.
Mild to moderate discomfort, swelling, or spotting usually subside after the first week. Apply the antibiotic ointment as instructed and follow all aftercare instructions to facilitate a successful labiaplasty recovery. Most patients return to work within a week. Exercise and sexual intercourse are restricted for six weeks.
After making a full recovery, the vulva takes on a more cosmetically pleasing appearance. The effects of labiaplasty are long-lasting, although future weight loss, aging, hormonal changes, and pregnancy may alter the shape of the vulva.
