At FACEMED in Essex, we understand the emotional and physical impact that concerns about your intimate areas can have. Labiaplasty, also known as vulva surgery, is designed to reshape or reduce the size of the labia minora. Many women choose this procedure for reasons such as discomfort during physical activities, a desire to improve aesthetics, or to enhance sexual confidence. At FACEMED, we offer a compassionate and confidential space to explore this life-changing surgery.
Why Choose Labiaplasty?
Women often consider labiaplasty for several reasons:
- To reduce discomfort or pain caused by enlarged labia
- To improve the appearance of the vulva
- To address hygiene concerns
- To relieve chronic UTI symptoms
- To enhance confidence and sexual comfort
We understand these concerns and are here to help you make an informed decision about intimate cosmetic surgery.
What Is Labiaplasty Surgery?
Labiaplasty is a straightforward procedure, usually carried out under local anaesthetic, though sedation is available. During surgery, excess tissue is removed to create a symmetrical, aesthetically pleasing appearance. Fine dissolvable stitches are used for a smooth, effective healing process. The procedure typically takes less than two hours, and patients can return home the same day.
Managing Pain and Discomfort
While some discomfort post-surgery is normal, it is usually minimal. Our team provides prescribed medication to manage pain, and tips like wearing loose clothing help with recovery. Most women feel back to their usual light activities within three to four weeks.
Will Labiaplasty Affect Sexual Pleasure?
Labiaplasty generally has a positive effect on sexual confidence without negatively impacting sensitivity. Many women report improved self-esteem after the surgery, which can enhance their sexual pleasure.
Recovery After Labiaplasty
Recovery is typically straightforward. To ensure proper healing, you should avoid strenuous activities or sexual intercourse for 4–6 weeks. Following these guidelines will support your recovery process and help you feel your best.
