Labia Majora Reduction

Some individuals have enlarged, hypertrophied, or excessively full outer labia that cause discomfort, chafing, visible bulging under clothing, or functional difficulty.

Labia majora reduction removes excess skin and fatty tissue to achieve a more comfortable, proportionate appearance.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia with sedation, takes approximately 1-2 hours, and is a day-care surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the reasons for labia majora reduction?

  • Functional: discomfort during walking, exercise, and wearing fitted clothing; chafing and skin irritation.
  • Aesthetic: enlarged outer labia that cause visible contour under clothing or personal distress.

Where are the incisions placed?

  • Incisions are placed within the natural folds of the labia majora, producing scars that are well-concealed and heal to fine, barely perceptible lines.

What is the recovery timeline?

  • First 5-7 days: Mild swelling, tenderness, and bruising. Light activity within a week.
  • 2 weeks: Most discomfort settles.
  • 4 weeks: Avoid strenuous exercise until this point.
  • 6-8 weeks: No sexual intercourse until full healing.
  • Dissolvable sutures dissolve on their own; no removal needed.
