What is a Labiaplasty
Labiaplasty is a relatively simple surgical procedure that reduces the size of the inner labia (labia minora). For many women who dislike the appearance of their labia, or who experience discomfort because of excessive labia tissue, this procedure can improve physical and emotional comfort. The surgery typically takes around 15-30 minutes to perform, and most patients experience a quick and easy recovery, returning to work within a day or two.
Deciding if you would like to have labiaplasty surgery is an important decision that our surgical team at SixSurgery can help you make. The Toronto Cosmetic Surgery Institute is a supportive and safe environment in which many women undergo labiaplasty surgery and achieve great results.

Labiaplasty Surgical Techniques
Many women experience physical discomfort or are uncomfortable with the appearance of longer labia minora (inner labia). Labiaplasty is a cosmetic surgery procedure that changes the shape and size of the labiain order to create a more symmetrical and tucked-in aesthetic and improved comfort. Most commonly a labiaplasty addresses the length of the labia minora (inner labia), however on occasion a labiaplasty can address the labia majora (outer labia) as well. There are a number of different labia reduction techniques that can be performed depending on the requirements of the patient. The technique that is right for you will be discussed at your consultation.
The Trim Technique
The Trim Technique is the type of labiaplasty most commonly performed by the SixSurgery team. During this procedure, a longitudinal section of the excess labia is removed in order to reduce the labia to an optimum length, creating a symmetrical shape. This is the most favoured labiaplasty technique as it has low complication rates that make recovery and healing a simple process for patients and the scars heal beautifully.
The Wedge Technique
The Wedge Technique minimizes scarring and produces very natural looking results, while maintaining the natural tissue border of the inner labia. This procedure is suitable for patients whose excess labia tissue only involves a small portion of the inner labia.
The Z-Plasty
The Z-Plasty labiaplasty is a variation of the Wedge Technique. The indications and contra-indications for this surgical procedure are identical to those of the Wedge method. With this procedure, patients maintain a natural labia edge and can achieve a modest change in labial length.
The Deepithelialization Technique
This procedure has been designed to maintain a completely natural looking labia and to preserve your capacity for sexual sensation. This procedure produces very little scarring but does have very limited applications and is only used in certain circumstances.

Bleeding

Infection
Infection is rare but may occur and treatment with antibiotics and/or drainage may be required. In rare instances surgery may be required for severe infection.
Removal of prominent labia
Removal of prominent labia may make the clitoris and the clitoral hood more noticeable.
Numbness
Numbness of the skin over treated areas may persist for months. Localized areas of numbness or increased sensitivity may be permanent in rare instances.
Objectionable scarring

Dizziness
