Laser Reduction Labiaplasty has just turned out to be one of the most popular procedures among women in the last few years. Labiaplasty in Virginia is now a very popular procedure.
Mainly there are two reasons why women ask their OB/GYN doctor about this procedure. The first is mainly aesthetic and related to the look of the labia. The second reason is more related to potential health issues.
Women who are not very happy with the look and feel of their labia minora complain that their labia project too much. They worry that their partner may find the labia unattractive so they consider the Laser Reduction Labiaplasty surgery to change it. For many women who choose to have this procedure, it is a personal decision — the same reason could be valid for a facelift or breast enlargement. This can affect a woman's self esteem, causing her to stay away from sexual encounters since she is convinced that her partner will be turned off by the way it looks.
Some women are so embarrassed by the size of their labia, especially when wearing tight leggings or even during sex, as the labia minora stick out. They think of it as something that can seriously influence their relationships.
About the Procedure
The Laser Reduction Labiaplasty is performed through small, tiny incisions in order to redesign the labia minora. The labiaplasty procedure is an outpatient surgery that can be performed in a couple of hours. In some cases the procedure can be completed without requiring hospitalization or general anesthesia.
Recovery
After the procedure the patient is encouraged to wear loose clothing in order for the area to recover quickly. Keeping the area clean and showering regularly is required. Since the stitches will dissolve automatically, there is no need for removal. Patients should realize that any physical activity should be resumed after approximately two weeks. Most women have expressed that they feel well after surgery, without any significant symptoms or side effects.
