Labiaplasty Sydney – Vaginoplasty Australia

With age and childbirth, the labia and surrounding vaginal tissue can change in shape, size, and tone, and some women are born with large labia.

There are procedures to alter and improve the function and appearance of the female genitals. It’s a relatively new field in aesthetic surgery, but in recent years this type of operation has become more popular.

At Australia Plastic Surgery, we offer advanced vagina surgery in Sydney, including procedures designed to reshape, tighten, and rejuvenate the vaginal and labial areas for improved comfort and aesthetic balance.

Australia Plastic Surgery offers two types of genital surgery for women otherwise known as Vaginal Surgery Sydney:

1. Operation of the Labia (Labiaplasty): to correct irregularities in the labia’s appearance and reduce excess tissue.
2. Operation of the Vagina (Vaginoplasty): to tighten and strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and vaginal canal.

Labial Reduction (Labiaplasty or Labial Rejuvenation)

The most common irregularity is that the inner labia are too big. If these protrude far beyond the outer labia, there is a risk of chafing. Surgery can be used to reduce the size of the inner labia.

A medical history and examination is conducted to determine if the patient is suitable candidate for the procedure.

Larger labia may protrude well beyond the outer lips of the vagina, causing discomfort when they rub against clothing or during sport. Women with exceptionally long or unequal lengths of the inner lips (labia minora) can have them aesthetically reshaped.

This procedure of Labiaplasty Sydney can:

• Restore comfort during everyday activities such as exercise or sexual intercourse
• Improve symmetry and reduce irritation from tight clothing
• Help women feel more confident and comfortable with their appearance

Before the procedure of Labiaplasty Sydney, a full medical history and physical examination are performed to ensure that the patient is a suitable candidate.

Eligible Candidates for Labiaplasty

It’s suitable for women who experience discomfort, irritation, or self-consciousness due to enlarged or uneven labial tissue.

You may be an eligible candidate for Labiaplasty Sydney if you:

• Experience physical discomfort during exercise, cycling, or sexual activity caused by excess or elongated labial tissue.
• Have labial asymmetry or enlargement that affects personal hygiene or causes chafing.
• Wish to restore the labia’s appearance following childbirth, ageing, or hormonal changes.
• Are in good general health, with realistic expectations about surgical outcomes.
• Are over 18 years old and able to provide informed consent for the procedure.

In some cases, labiaplasty may also be performed for reconstructive reasons, such as correcting trauma or congenital irregularities.

Labial Reduction Surgery

Labial surgery is always done as day case, usually under general or local anaesthetic with sedation.

During the procedure the surgeon removes a wedge-shaped piece of tissue and re-attaches the labium in a new position so that the inner lips no longer protrude beyond the outer lips.

The stitches used are dissolved by the body, so there is no need for unpleasant physical removal in this delicate area.

After Labial Reduction Surgery

• There is no need for bandages. It suffices to wash the area thoroughly with a hand-held shower twice a day.
• A burning or unpleasant feeling may be present, but in general there is no need for painkillers.
• Personal hygiene is extremely important for rapid healing.
• You will be able to go home the same day.
• The wound area will be reviewed in the clinic in a week time

Getting Back to Work And Normal Duties

• Loose underwear should be worn for the first two weeks.
• After three or four weeks of Labiaplasty Sydney, sexual relations can be resumed while exercising certain caution.
