Description
This 43-year-old woman wanted to improve the appearance of her labia majora (the hair-bearing folds of skin around the vagina) as she felt they had lost volume over time. She also wanted to improve the appearance of her mons, or fold of tissue directly above her pubic area. Our patient had had 3 pregnancies and vaginal and Caesarean deliveries.
We treated her with fat grafting to the bilateral (both-sided) labia majora, borrowing fat from her inner thighs to add natural volume. Our patient also underwent a monsplasty to smooth her mons while also improving the appearance of C-section scar. The patient is shown 2 months after her surgery, with an excellent result and a much more contoured appearance. She had her treatment awake and relaxed in the comfort and privacy of our welcoming and bespoke clinic, and was excited to see her results immediately after surgery. She will heal over the course of 4-6 months, during which time the labial tissues and mons incision will continue to smooth out and become softer.
Labia and vaginas come in an endless variety of normal shapes and sizes. While they have normal anatomy, some women feel uncomfortable with too-long or stretched or asymmetric labial tissues, which can develop after puberty, weight changes, pregnancy, or childbirth. We frequently combine labiaplasty procedures with clitoral hood reduction, fat grafting for volume restoration, growth factor injections for improved sensitivity and sexual health, and vaginal rejuvenation to achieve optimal intimate health for our patients.
Our Plastic Surgeon Dr. Inessa Fishman has extensive background and experience in aesthetics and surgery, having completed as Aesthetic Gynecology fellowship in addition to her plastic surgery training. Women’s wellness is both her passion and ours, and we take pride in caring for our patients with intimate wellness and sexual health concerns.
