Labiaplasty in Dallas, TX

Many women are uncomfortable with their enlarged labia minora (the inner lips that surround the vaginal opening) and labia majora (the outer lips), which can lead to self-consciousness and discomfort while wearing clothing, exercising, or having sex. A labiaplasty may involve sculpting down the labia minora, the labia majora, or both. Dr. Aimee Nguyen, a cosmetic vaginal surgeon in Frisco, TX (also serving Plano, Allen & McKinney), specializes in cosmetic vaginal surgery and offers labiaplasty, which produces natural looking results. Dr. Nguyen has performed countless labiaplasties, creating an aesthetically appealing outcome and a normal look and feel.

A customized labiaplasty in Dallas, TX at Dallas Vaginal Rejuvenation offers functional and aesthetic upsides alike for your most intimate body parts, including:

• Betters the appearance of the vaginal region
• Reduces a sizeable labia
• Boosts comfort
• Decreases discomfort and/or irritation
• Increases sexual pleasure

• Permits you to wear a wider variety of clothing
• Boosts self-confidence and positive self-view

Labiaplasty at Dallas Vaginal Rejuvenation can help women in Dallas, TX, who feel self-conscious about the size or shape of their labia, which may be enlarged due to genetics, childbirth, or trauma. Enlarged vaginal lips can cause pain, discomfort, irritation, or itching during activities like exercise and sex. This procedure can also be beneficial if the size of your labia prevents you from comfortably wearing fitted clothing such as leggings, swimsuits, or yoga pants. While labiaplasty does not impact pregnancy, Dr. Nguyen recommends waiting until you have finished having children to maintain your results.

Labiaplasty is done on an outpatient basis with a light sedation (sometimes known as twilight sedation) or general anesthesia and typically takes around 1-2 hours. Minimal incisions are made in the skin of the labia majora or minora, and then the excess skin and tissue are removed using a combination of wedge-shaped and trimming techniques to achieve the best aesthetic result. Incisions are made carefully to avoid loss of sensation or pain after the surgery, and then excess tissue is removed. The remaining skin is pulled tight and a more contoured look.

Post-operative care instructions will be given to each patient. Patients will be given a panty-girdle to wear for the first 10 days to help with swelling. A sanitary napkin is recommended for bleeding or discharge. After their labiaplasty, most patients can return to work in 3-5 days, but patients should not exercise for at least 2-3 weeks. To help the healing process and promote the best results, patients should not engage in sexual activity for at least 6 weeks after the surgery.

Following labiaplasty, patients usually have more confidence and feel more comfortable in certain clothes and situations, such as exercise and sexual intercourse. The incisions from this surgery are almost completely undetectable, leaving a natural, normal appearance.

The total cost of a labiaplasty starts at $8,500 and this includes the surgery, anesthesia, facility fee, and all pre and post-operative appointments. This procedure is considered cosmetic and is not usually covered by insurance. Financing is available through CareCredit.

**Price depends all on tissue that needs to be removed, anesthesia (by the hour) and how long the surgery will take**

The most common risks involved with a labiaplasty are infection, permanent changes in sensation, ongoing pain, and scarring. Dr. Nguyen does her best to minimize all risks, but please discuss any concerns with her before your surgery.

A labiaplasty may be performed anytime a woman is unhappy with the appearance of her labia, but it is commonly performed to repair a stretched labia, the labia after childbirth, to alleviate discomfort, or for medical concerns.

Dr. Nguyen has spent three extra years of training in vaginal and pelvic floor surgery compared to most other general gynecologists who perform cosmetic vaginal surgery. Most plastic surgeons have had little, if any, vaginal surgery training. Dr. Nguyen has also trained under Dr. David Matlock (Dr. 90210), who is a widely recognized pioneer in Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation® and Designer Laser Vaginoplasty®. Patients have been very pleased with the quality of care and expertise that she has provided and the beautiful, youthful cosmetic results of their procedures.
