The Labiaplasty Procedure: Step by Step
A pre-operative consultation confirms indications, reviews medical history and photographs the anatomy to plan the procedure. On the day, local or general anaesthesia is administered. The excess or asymmetric labial tissue is excised using a trim or wedge technique, depending on the anatomy and desired outcome. Dissolvable sutures are used and do not require removal. The procedure takes 1 to 2 hours. You return home the same day.

How to Choose a Labiaplasty Surgeon in Pune
Look for an MBBS plus MD gynaecologist with specific experience in vaginal surgical procedures. Ask to see before-and-after photos (anonymised) from their patients. Ask specifically about the technique used (trim vs wedge) and why they recommend it for your anatomy. A surgeon who discusses risks honestly and offers a follow-up plan is the right choice.
Avoid clinics that cannot tell you who is performing the procedure, that quote unusually low prices without a clinical explanation or that conduct the surgery in a non-medical setting.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will labiaplasty affect sexual sensation?
Labiaplasty performed correctly does not reduce sexual sensation. In fact, many women report improved sexual experience after the procedure due to reduced pain and discomfort.
Q: Can labiaplasty be combined with other procedures?
Yes. Labiaplasty is often combined with clitoral hood reduction (hoodectomy) or laser vaginal tightening in a single session when multiple concerns are present.
