What it is

Labia majora labiaplasty

Labia majora labiaplasty treats the labia majora — the outer part of the vulva. Over time, after pregnancies, significant weight loss, or simply due to one's own anatomy, the labia majora can become lax, with excess skin or volume.

This can cause discomfort in clothes, friction, a feeling of “extra skin” and insecurity. Depending on the case, treatment may be surgical (removal of the excess skin) or combined with other techniques, such as laser and filler.

Who it's for

  • Laxity or excess skin of the labia majora
  • Bulge that shows through clothing or causes chafing
  • Changes after pregnancy or major weight loss
  • Desire to rejuvenate the external intimate area

How it's done

  • Assessment of the degree of laxity and volume
  • Removal of excess skin with a delicate surgical technique
  • Use of CO₂ laser or Fraxx as indicated
  • Can be combined with labiaplasty, filler or mini liposuction of the mons pubis
  • Local anesthesia, with or without sedation
Recovery

What recovery usually looks like

Every case is unique: recovery time and aftercare are defined during the consultation, based on the technique recommended for you.

Same day

In most cases you go home the same day, with instructions and the prescribed medication.

First few days

Relative rest, cold compresses and careful hygiene. Mild swelling and discomfort are expected.

Return to routine

Light activities and work are usually resumed within a few days, as directed by your doctor.

Full clearance

Intense exercise and sexual intercourse are cleared after the follow-up visit, usually between 30 and 40 days.

“For a long time, I had discomfort that affected my self-esteem: trouble with tight clothes, discomfort wearing a bikini and even during sex. Deciding to have laser labiaplasty was an important step for me — and, without a doubt, one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The result exceeded my expectations. Today I feel more comfortable, more confident and good about myself at all times.”

“I had my intimate surgery and I can only say thank you. I had wanted the procedure for a long time, but I didn’t feel ready yet. After following the doctor’s results on social media and, above all, after the first consultation, I felt all the confidence I needed. I’m very grateful for all the care, attention and professionalism.”

Frequently asked questions

Labia majora labiaplasty

What is the difference between labiaplasty and labia majora labiaplasty?

Labiaplasty treats the labia minora (the inner part); labia majora labiaplasty treats the labia majora (the outer part). Both procedures can be done together.

Is surgery always necessary?

No. For mild laxity, laser and labia majora filler may be enough. The best option is determined at the evaluation.

Do I need a consultation first?

Yes. Every recommendation starts with an individual evaluation, in which Dr. Luiza examines you and explains the options, the risks and what to expect from the result. The consultation can start online for those who live far away.
