If you’re experiencing discomfort or self-consciousness due to the size or shape of your labia, you’re not alone. Many women seek labiaplasty to address both functional and aesthetic concerns, and at J. Sweat Plastic Surgery in Sacramento, CA, Dr. Jeffrey Sweat offers compassionate, expert care in a safe and welcoming environment.
What Is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape or reduce the size of the labia minora (the inner vaginal lips). Women may choose labiaplasty for a variety of reasons, including:
- Physical discomfort during exercise, cycling, or intimacy
- Irritation or chafing from clothing
- Asymmetry or elongated labia that affect confidence
- Changes in the labia after childbirth, weight fluctuations, or aging
The goal of labiaplasty is to create a natural, proportionate appearance while minimizing discomfort and restoring your confidence.
What to Expect from Labiaplasty at J. Sweat Plastic Surgery
Your journey begins with a confidential consultation with Dr. Jeffrey Sweat. During this meeting, Dr. Sweat will listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and discuss your goals for the procedure. He will explain the surgical techniques available, what you can expect before, during, and after surgery, and help you make an informed decision about your care.
Labiaplasty is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. The surgery usually takes one to two hours, and Dr. Sweat uses advanced techniques to minimize scarring and promote a natural-looking result.
Recovery and Results
After labiaplasty, most patients experience mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort for a few days. These symptoms are usually managed with over-the-counter pain medication and cold compresses. Most women can return to non-strenuous activities within a week, but it’s important to avoid vigorous exercise and sexual activity for four to six weeks to ensure proper healing.
You’ll notice an immediate improvement in the appearance and comfort of your labia, with final results becoming more apparent as swelling subsides. Dr. Sweat and his team will provide detailed post-operative instructions and support you throughout your recovery.
Is Labiaplasty Right for You?
Labiaplasty is a highly personal decision, and the reasons for seeking this procedure are unique to each individual. Good candidates are healthy women who experience physical or emotional discomfort related to their labia and have realistic expectations for the outcome. During your consultation, Dr. Sweat will help you determine if labiaplasty is the best option for your needs and goals.
