Contra-indications

Labia reduction surgery is relatively contraindicated for the woman who has active gynaecological disease, such as an infection or a malignancy; the woman who is a tobacco smoker and is unwilling to quit, either temporarily or permanently, in order to optimize her wound-healing capability and the woman who is unrealistic in her aesthetic goals.

The latter should either be counselled or excluded from Labiaplasty surgery. Davison et al write that it should not be performed when the patient is menstruating to reduce potential hormonal effects and the increased risk of infection.

To assist the healing patients should cleanse with water and shave the area one day prior to surgery, removing all the pubic hair around the labia. The surgery is performed under a general anesthesia.

Surgery is usually performed as a day care. Numerous techniques are available such as a trim of the labia minora, a crescentic excision of on the internal part of the labia minora, or the use of a wedge and flap closure to close the wound. Surgery involves meticulous removal of excess tissue. The wound is closed using two layers of dissolving sutures, which do not require later removal.

It is generally recommended that ice is applied between two layers of undergarments for the first day. After surgery, most patients need to take a minimum of three to four days off work. This will help in better wound healing.

Patients are asked to wear loose comfortable clothing after the surgery. The main risks of Labiaplasty are wound infection and wound breakdown. Post-surgery patients should cleanse with water and avoid harsh chemicals and dry by simply dabbing the area rather than vigorous rubbing. A Labiaplasty enhances the physical and physiological quality of life for many women.
