Labiaplasty in San Francisco, California

Understanding Labiaplasty Procedure

A labiaplasty is a surgical treatment designed for women experiencing excess tissue around the vaginal area, specifically the labia minora. This condition can develop after childbirth or be present beforehand. While some may minimize its significance, enlarged labia can cause genuine physical and emotional challenges for patients.

Common Concerns Addressed by Labiaplasty

• Pain during intercourse
• Visible tissue protrusion in fitted clothing
• Discomfort during physical activities
• Emotional self-consciousness

Surgical Approach to Labial Tissue Reduction

The labiaplasty procedure carefully removes excess tissue from the labia minora while preserving:

• Natural anatomical contour
• Original pigmentation
• Sensory nerve function
