Reconstructive Surgery of the Vulva
Intro
Reconstructive surgery to the vulva, or labiaplasty, is a procedure to reduce the size of the labia minora, which are the flaps of skin located either side of the entrance to the vagina. Some women choose to have the surgery to reduce discomfort, or for cosmetic purposes. At Blue Tree Clinics, we offer a safe and highly effective procedure tailored to your needs.
Surgery Overview
For some women, the labia can be a cause of discomfort due to a medical condition. Others may be unhappy with the look of their labia and may wish to achieve a more contoured and asymmetrical appearance. At Blue Tree Clinics, we offer labiaplasty to reduce the size of their labia.
Using either general or local anaesthetic with sedation, the procedure will shorten or reshape the lips of your vagina. The unwanted tissue is removed using either a scalpel or laser and the loose edge is then stitched up using dissolvable stitches. The procedure takes between one to two hours.
Following the surgery, you will need to rest for at least 4 to 5 days and ensure that the area is kept clean and free from infection. We advise that you wear loose underwear and clothing to prevent rubbing, avoid sex for six weeks and use sanitary towels instead of tampons.
Most swelling will reduce approximately 2 to 3 weeks after surgery, and you will be able to resume your usual daily routine after a few days. You should avoid exercise for about one month.
What are the benefits?
Labiaplasty offers a range of benefits, which includes creating better genital aesthetics in the shape and size that you desire. This is in addition to resolving any discomfort you may be experiencing.
For those seeking labiaplasty for cosmetic purposes, it can increase your self-confidence and allow you to wear a wider range of clothes that you have previously felt too uncomfortable to wear.
Consultation
At Blue Tree Clinics, we want our patients to feel as comfortable as possible. We will first discuss all of your concerns and medical history, before proposing a solution that is tailored to suit your needs. We advise that women under the age of 18 do not undergo this procedure, as the labia may grow and develop after puberty into adulthood.

Testimonial
“I can’t thank the team at Blue Tree Clinics enough for helping me to feel so much more confident about my body. Before the surgery, I was feeling incredibly self-conscious, which prevented me from wearing certain types of clothing and feeling confident with my partner. My only regret now is that I didn’t visit the team sooner. Would highly recommend!”
