What Is Labiaplasty?

Although not often openly discussed, many women feel self-conscious about the size and shape of their vaginal lips, which can affect their confidence. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Miguel Gallegos helps women in Albuquerque, NM, feel more comfortable and confident with surgical vaginal rejuvenation that reshapes and reduces the size of the labia. The labia—the external lips of the vaginal area—can become enlarged or sag due to aging, childbirth, pregnancy, or injury. Labiaplasty surgically reduces the size of the labia majora and/or minora to enhance appearance, minimize irritation, and increase both comfort and sexual satisfaction. Schedule a consultation at Hermosa Plastic Surgery in Albuquerque, NM, to learn more and find out if you are a candidate for labiaplasty.

Am I a Candidate for Labiaplasty?

Labiaplasty at Hermosa Plastic Surgery may benefit women in Albuquerque, NM, who are concerned about enlarged or uneven vaginal lips caused by childbirth, genetics, or trauma. Enlarged labia can cause discomfort, pain, irritation, or itching during activities such as sex or exercise. This surgery can also help if you avoid tight clothing like leggings, yoga pants, or swimsuits due to the appearance of your vaginal area.

While labiaplasty should not affect your ability to conceive, Dr. Gallegos recommends waiting until you have completed childbearing to maintain your results long-term.
