Labiaplasty Sydney

There are numerous benefits that labiaplasty surgery can provide, including:

• Reduces pain and discomfort
• Corrects uneven labia minora
• Allows patients to wear tight clothing without discomfort
• Enhance the external genitalia’s appearance
• Lessens discomfort during sexual intercourse
• Reduces the risk of recurrent infections
• Improves exercise tolerance as pain is minimised

You may be a good candidate for labiaplasty if you meet the following criteria:

• You are concerned with the appearance of your labia minora
• You have darkened inner lips
• You feel insecure during intimate moments with others
• You experience unpleasant or painful sensations during sexual intercourse
• You experience pain or discomfort during strenuous physical activities such as cycling and running
• You avoid wearing specific clothing or activities due to your vagina

Patients must also ensure they are physically healthy, have stopped smoking, and understand the risks and complications.

With any medical or cosmetic operation you choose to have done, there is a chance for risks and problems to occur. Labiaplasty carries the following risks and adverse effects:

• Excessive swelling and bleeding
• Poor scarring
• Infection
• Delayed recovery
• Nerve damage
• Complications related to anaesthesia

Before deciding to proceed, you must be aware of the dangers and difficulties that could arise from labiaplasty. Following your post-operative recovery plan as prescribed by Dr Yunaev will help reduce any risks or complications and, where possible, minimise scarring.

The labiaplasty procedure takes an hour to complete and is done under general anaesthesia. The general objective of a labiaplasty is to reduce the size of the labia minora by removing extra tissue and shaping the labia into a more appealing size and shape. Each patient’s surgery will vary since it can be customised to address your particular issues. Three different techniques can be used for labiaplasty, and Dr Yunaev works with patients to choose the best approach based on their concerns and goals for labiaplasty.

Tissue Trim Technique
Labiaplasty is initially performed by merely removing the tissue at the free edge of the labia minora. Due to its speed and simplicity, this treatment is frequently employed by surgeons. Women who want to remove the ageing and pregnancy-related darkening of the inner labia may find this technique an excellent choice.

However, the natural texture of the labia minora is lost with this technique, producing an unnatural-looking, excessively smooth appearance, which is a drawback that must be considered. Additionally, there is a higher risk of nerve damage involved. The inability of this approach to address extra tissue in the clitoral hood is another significant drawback. Even if you are not concerned about the shape of your clitoral hood, this procedure may impact the shape of the clitoral hood.

De-Epithelization Technique
The de-epithelization method preserves the natural texture of the labia minora edge by making an incision in both the inner and outer walls of the genital area. The drawback of this technique is that if a large quantity of tissue needs to be removed, it may result in the labium’s width expanding and the labia becoming bulkier. Additionally, the free margin is not lengthened and may result in a wrinkled appearance in people with prominent labia.

Wedge Resection Technique
The wedge resection technique involves removing a wedge of tissue from the thickest part of the labia minora. Over the past ten years, many surgeons conducting labiaplasty surgery have chosen this procedure since it preserves the labia’s natural texture for a natural-looking appearance. However, a full-thickness excision has the potential to cause nerve damage. Another disadvantage is that this procedure does not address hyperpigmentation of the labial edge, and there is a possibility of wound separation if too much force is used.

There is no optimal technique, and your best course of action may involve combining several methods. Every woman is unique, and this includes her labia. Dr Yunaev works with you to develop a procedure plan based on your particular needs and preferences to deliver the best possible results and safest outcomes. In some cases, a composite labiaplasty may be used, which involves a combination of several methods. During your consultation, Dr Yunaev will discuss these details in-depth to understand your needs and create a customised treatment plan.
