Labia Majora Reduction
The labia majora may also have an enlarged appearance. This is actually a fairly common occurrence, but can be exacerbated (made more noticeable) by estrogen stimulation, childbirth, and extreme weight loss. The outline of the enlarged labia majora can be prominent when wearing tight-fitting clothing, causing self-consciousness and embarrassment. Labia majora reduction labiaplasty reduces the amount of tissue in the labia majora, resulting in a far less conspicuous appearance.
Each patient may desire a different outcome which is why Dr. Safir can recommend
the proper procedure. Reduction of the labia majora may be performed in conjunction
with reduction of the labia minora. If labial reduction surgery is performed, the
surgical scar is hidden in the natural crease between the labia majora and labia minora.
Dr. Safir can safely perform this operation in his office under local anesthesia
and oral sedatives in approximately 60 minutes.
