Details.
Cosmetic surgery that minimizes the length of the labia minora or outer portion of the female genitalia. The procedure can address long, hanging, protruding, or asymmetrical labia and vaginal or labial discomfort. It uses general anesthesia or intravenous sedation, with incisions closed using ultra-fine sutures. A bandage helps minimize swelling and bruising after the procedure. An inflatable seat cushion may be helpful while the incisions heal over a few days. Normal activities, including sexual intercourse, can typically resume within two to three weeks.
