You Shouldn’t Have To Feel Embarrassed Or Uncomfortable
When the labia minora is long, concerns about the size and appearance of one’s labia could lead to emotional and psychological distress. In some women, it is considerable enough to make them feel ashamed of the way they look both in and out of clothes. Often, this is because of longer, often pigmented, labia minora, frequently in younger patients.
When the Labia Majora is thin, it is often because the external female genitalia lose elasticity and volume with age. Few surgical specialists have the experience and ability to rejuvenate the labia major with fat grafting. Dr. Sadove is one of the few Plastic Surgeons in the USA to have completed an ABMS approved Fellowship in Genital Reconstructive Surgery. It requires the skill of fat grafting in general. Other patients will prefer to use Hyaluronic Acid filler, which is commonly used in the face. A second syringe on each side is required after a number of months. The slang term used today is a “Puff“. see photos
Pigmentation of the Genital Area is also a serious concern for many. We have the medicinal creams which removes embarrassing pigmentation.
You Shouldn’t Have To Endure Painful Sex Or Sports
A long labia can rub against the fabric of the underwear and become sore due to friction. This may lead to small tears in the labia which could later lead to pain and inflammation. This is especially true among women who are active or engage in many different kinds of sports, or wear tight clothing.
Patients often report concern for discomfort from tugging or twisting of long labia during sexual intercourse.

Labiaplasty is a word that describes a procedure that shortens the length of the labia minora, or inner lips next to the vagina. The procedure is performed frequently and with ever increasing popularity.
There are a variety of reasons why a woman requests the procedure. Sometimes it is due to pain or discomfort from tugging or twisting of the labia during sexual intercourse or sports like riding a bicycle.
The other reason is simply self-consciousness or embarrassment during intimate relations. Other times, a large labia is visible through shorts or a swimsuit.
When the labia minora hangs below the major and the major do not close over them, the surgery is performed to correct this situation. At times, one side is significantly larger than the other and the two can be made closer in size. However, most often both sides are reduced so that they no longer twist or tug.

Extra skin folds of the clitoral hood can also be removed at the same time. Fine absorbable stitches are used which melt away with time and do not need to be removed.
A week from heavy work is the usual time required. During this time patients are encouraged to take frequent baths with Epsom salt and use a small amount of Vaseline for comfort along with a vaginal pad.

In 2018, the FDA sent out a stern warning against the use of energy devices (laser therapy) to perform “vaginal rejuvenation,” and for procedures to treat symptoms related to sexual function, because of worries about adverse events. We do not perform laser treatments of the vagina.
