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.
Dr. Sadove is one of the few Plastic Surgeons in the USA to have completed an ABMS approved Fellowship in Genital Reconstructive Surgery, after his full residency in General and Plastic Surgery. He is gentle and kind, taking care that you have little discomfort. The choice is yours: a true specialist in genital surgery or someone with casual experience.. Now serving the greater North Florida region, he offers labiaplasty to patients coming from all over the USA. Consultations are remote on Zoom prior to our patients traveling for their procedure. Our patients send us a photo prior to the consultation. There is no nudity at the time of the consultation by video. Dedicated to excellence and continuing education, Dr. Sadove is proud to offer his services to plastic surgery patients for over 30 years.
For reasons Dr Sadove will explain at the time of the consultation, he prefers a plastic Surgery Labiaplasty Procedure which uses a common plastic surgery technique called a W plasty. 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.
Tampons and sexual intercourse is usually resumed after four to six weeks. This is not the end of the healing period. All wounds continue to soften and mature for six months.
Patients are very happy with the results. Many scientific studies have found over 90% patient satisfaction rates. More than any other field of plastic surgery, patients do not want to do reviews with their name associated. It is understandable. Your privacy will be respected and your photos not placed in public unless you tell us otherwise. To know more about labiaplasty, contact us now!
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.

My first plastic surgery consultation (NOT with Dr. Sadove) was terrible. It almost turned me off from surgery all together, but I’d been wanting and planning for this procedure for almost half my life, so I decided to try again with another surgeon. I’m so grateful I made the decision to meet with Dr. Sadove, because from the second I met him I felt so comfortable, well-informed, and safe having a surgical procedure done with him. From consultation to post-op, his level of care is consistent and he is truly talented! I am so pleased with my results, and I just can’t thank Dr. Sadove enough for helping me feel comfortable in my own skin!!!!
Dr. Sadove is a wonderful plastic surgeon! From my first consultation, I felt very comfortable with him and he took plenty of time to address my concerns and answer any questions. He was very accommodating throughout the entire process: from planning my procedure, pre-operative preparation, my surgical date, and throughout the post-operative process. Not only is his surgical work amazing, but he really truly cares about his patients, which was evident during my recovery. I consulted with multiple surgeons before deciding to choose Dr. Sadove for my procedure and I am so happy I trusted my instinct! I am so ecstatic with my results!
Dr. Sadove and his staff are amazing! They genuinely care. He was attentive and precise. Dr. Sadove is an artist and professional! He did a wonderful job on something I had wanted most of my life. The office is clean and their staff is also friendly and amazing as well. I’m so glad I found his office! I highly recommend him.
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Sadove! He took time to listen to my concerns and he thoroughly explain what to expect for my procedure. I only wish I had found him sooner! His office staff and nurse are also amazing! Very kind, professional, and helpful! I would definitely come here again for anything in the future I need.
