The natural protective barrier of the female genitals is formed by the outer labia, which should cover the inner ones. The inner labia in turn protect the entrance to the vagina and the urethra. Through predisposition, or triggered by pregnancy and birth injuries, a disproportion between the inner and outer labia can arise.
If the inner labia protrude beyond the outer ones, the protective function is no longer fully given: germs have an easier time causing problems and those affected suffer more frequently from urinary tract infections. Torn or overly large inner labia can also cause pain, among other things while cycling. A labiaplasty can bring considerably more wellbeing.
To reduce the inner labia we prefer a technique at our practice clinic in Oldenburg in which the small later scar is placed away from the vaginal entrance as far as possible. It is a three-dimensional method of correcting the inner labia and is therefore somewhat more time-consuming than the method using a laser. The procedure can be carried out both under local anaesthesia and under general anaesthesia.
The outer labia can also be enlarged: through the injection of hyaluronic acid, which works temporarily, or through an autologous fat transfer. We harvest the fat during a liposuction from another region of the body, usually the mons pubis or the lower abdomen.
Rest assured: genital aesthetics have a considerably higher standing today than just a few years ago. Society still talks little about it, but enquiries and procedure numbers are increasing noticeably. Our patients are very satisfied and grateful after the treatments. It is a pleasure for us to support you professionally with this subject and to give you a good feeling from the outset.
After a labiaplasty – the reduction of the inner labia – swelling frequently occurs. It increases noticeably during the first few days and then subsides quickly. Cooling is essential here and reduces the swelling noticeably; the use of ibuprofen or bromelain can also have a favourable influence on it.
After a labia reduction we recommend rinsing regularly, several times a day and especially after going to the toilet – simply with the ordinary shower head. You need not be afraid of a wound infection. In addition, lukewarm chamomile sitz baths do good every day.
A labia reduction is an operation too and usually involves fine scars. A scar needs a certain time to heal, in technical terms scar maturation: it becomes softer and softer over time and the corresponding abnormal sensations recede. Regular self-massage once the wound has healed completely can have a very positive influence on the result.
Most frequently we see swelling, for which cooling provides relief. Localised wound healing problems are also frequent; they close by themselves, however.
We arrange follow-up check-ups individually. Excess suture material is removed after 14 days. During the first week after the procedure you should avoid longer walks in order to give the otherwise rubbing wound area some rest. Sport is possible again after 2 weeks and you are able to face other people after about 4 days. On the subject of sexual intercourse we give you an individual recommendation; beyond that we advise you to explore yourself first and to massage the scars.
Do talk to us. We take our time, listen and explain calmly what is medically sensible and aesthetically possible. Arrange a consultation appointment at our practice clinic.
