What is Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is a procedure that removes redundant, excessive, elongated or asymmetric labial tissue from the labia minora (aka, inner lips). Women who seek Dr. Taghechian often complain that their inner lips protrude beyond their outer lips. This can lead to discomfort with wearing certain undergarments or pants. These patients are often self-conscious about their appearance in a bathing suit and may avoid swimming situations all-together. Her patients may complain of having to “tuck-in” their labia back into their underwear all the time! This can ultimately lead to depression, loss of self-confidence, avoidance of friends, family, and intimate relationships.
If this describes your situation, Dr. Taghechian will help you by performing a labiaplasty under local anesthetic and relaxing medication. Her medical, surgical, urologic, and cosmetic training ensures that you will achieve your desired, natural appearance safely and effectively. Her patients heal very quickly, and require minimal pain medication.
