Information about labia reduction

What is a labia reduction?

Labia reduction, also known as labiaplasty, is a surgical procedure that aims to reduce the size and shape of the labia. This procedure can provide significant relief for women who suffer from discomfort, pain during exercise or intercourse due to the size of their labia. In addition, some women opt for this procedure for aesthetic reasons to achieve an appearance they find pleasing.

Who is a labia reduction suitable for?

Labia reduction is particularly suitable for women who suffer physical or psychological discomfort due to the size of their labia. The aim of the surgical procedure is to improve both physical and psychological well-being. Only those who fully accept their body will feel beautiful. However, women are not always completely satisfied with their bodies. While the term “problem areas” may immediately make you think of your stomach, legs or bottom, sometimes this also includes your own private parts. Many women feel uncomfortable in their bodies because they suffer from their enlarged labia on a daily basis. They don't like to see themselves naked or have inhibitions about showing themselves naked in front of their partner or going to the sauna or swimming pool. Unfortunately, many affected women hardly dare to talk about it, even though they want nothing more than a labia reduction.

The reasons for labia reduction are very individual and depend on various factors. Enlarged labia are often genetic, meaning that women can suffer for years without seemingly being able to do anything about it. In addition, the natural ageing process or even one or more births can cause the tissue in the genital area to slacken. This can result in the labia being perceived as unaesthetic. ‍

Here are some of the main reasons why a labia reduction may make sense:

• Physical discomfort: Affected women often experience pain and discomfort during sporting activities (cycling, horse riding) or during sexual intercourse. Wearing tight clothing can also cause irritation.
• Aesthetic reasons: Many women are unhappy with the appearance of their private parts, which can affect their self-confidence and lead to inhibitions in intimate situations or when undressing in public changing rooms. They strive for a harmonious and symmetrical appearance of the genitals.
• Hygienic problems: Larger labia can make cleaning more difficult, causing discomfort and potential health problems.
• Psychological distress: The size or shape of the labia can cause daily awareness and stress, which can cause significant psychological distress. This can lead to insecurities when being naked or in intimate moments with a partner.

For women suffering from the above conditions, labia reduction can help to achieve a significant improvement in quality of life and self-esteem. However, careful consideration and consultation are crucial to ensure that expectations are realistic and the procedure meets individual needs.

How does labiaplasty work?

Preparation

The first step on your journey towards a labiaplasty is a comprehensive consultation at our aesthetic practice in Düsseldorf – from woman to woman.
We will discuss your wishes and expectations, explain the procedure in detail, and answer all your questions.

Depending on your individual situation, it may also be advisable to combine the labiaplasty with a subtle hyaluronic acid filler to the outer labia in order to achieve the best possible aesthetic outcome.

It is particularly important to us that you feel comfortable when visiting our practice and that you can speak openly with us about your very personal aesthetic concerns.
Our goal is that you leave the treatment feeling confident, feminine, and comfortable in your body once again.

The Procedure

The surgery usually takes about 60 to 90 minutes. In most cases, it is performed under local anaesthesia, with the option of light sedation if desired.
A general anaesthetic is normally not required.

During the procedure, we carefully remove excess tissue and reshape the labia to achieve a harmonious and symmetrical appearance, while preserving the natural function and sensitivity of the tissue.

The aim of labiaplasty is typically to reduce the size of the inner labia so that they are covered by the outer labia.
This is usually achieved by removing a small amount of tissue from the inner labia, and less commonly from the outer labia.

To support healing and minimise visible scarring, we use fine, absorbable sutures.

Aftercare

In most cases, you can return home on the same day after a short rest period. We will provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for your intimate area following the procedure. It is normal to experience swelling or mild discomfort for a few days. Pain relief and cooling compresses can help ease these symptoms.

The full recovery and the final results are usually visible after several weeks to a few months. In general, scarring after labiaplasty is minimal and heals very well.

However, we recommend avoiding any form of friction or pressure, such as sport, sexual intercourse, or using tampons during menstruation, for about four to six weeks after the procedure to ensure optimal healing.

What does the result look like?

After reduction of the inner labia, patients can expect a symmetrical, natural appearance, with the inner labia lying discreetly beneath the outer ones – according to the individual preference. This creates a smooth, aesthetically pleasing contour where the outer labia gently cover the inner ones.

The result not only enhances the appearance, but also relieves physical discomfort that can arise from enlarged or sagging labia, such as irritation during exercise or while wearing tight clothing.

For the outer labia, aesthetic medicine also offers options for rejuvenation and reshaping. A popular method is lipofilling, where the patient’s own fat is gently harvested and used to add natural volume to the outer labia.

It is important to remember that the labia play a key role in protecting vaginal health by shielding the vaginal opening from dryness and external irritation.
For this reason, every labiaplasty is performed with great care to maintain the natural balance between aesthetics and protective function.

The results are typically very natural and discreet. The incisions are placed so that scars remain hidden and fade to fine, pale lines over time, resulting in an outcome that is both aesthetically pleasing and functionally satisfying.

Labiaplasty experiences

Our patients consistently report positive results – both physically and emotionally – after labiaplasty. Many describe feeling more comfortable and confident in their bodies. Symptoms such as pain during sport or discomfort when wearing tight clothing are often significantly reduced or completely eliminated.

From an aesthetic perspective, most women notice an improvement in symmetry and proportion, which often leads to a renewed sense of self-confidence.

Sensitivity is generally well preserved, as the procedure is performed using refined surgical techniques designed to avoid nerve damage.
