With childbirth and age, the vaginal area can grow lax and lose some of its elasticity and former appearance. Some women are simply unhappy with the look of their outer labia. At our Staten Island and NYC locations, genital cosmetic surgery restores or enhances the vaginal region.
These procedures can improve the overall appearance of the outer areas, create symmetry of female genitalia, reduce discomfort, help restore self-esteem, solve various health issues, and even lead to greater intimacy.

The Benefits
Benefits of Our Labiaplasty Surgery
Genital cosmetic surgery can build your confidence by creating a more compact vaginal region when the area is externally loose and visible. It aligns the vaginal region and reduces or shortens the labia if you're unhappy with their current condition. It can also correct excess labia skin, which often follows multiple childbirths or a loss of elasticity with age.
If you're unhappy with the appearance of your genitalia, or if it causes discomfort or embarrassment, book a consultation with our surgeons to see how labiaplasty can help.
Understanding the Labiaplasty Procedure
Childbirth and aging can change the female genitalia, especially the labia majora, labia minora, and perineum. An extended labia minora may interfere with intercourse and exercise. It can also cause discomfort or embarrassment in certain clothing like leggings, jeans, and bathing suits. Labiaplasty can improve or revise congenital conditions and anomalies, and it can help repair the genital region after injury or disease.
Genital Cosmetic Surgery
Labiaplasty, also known as labia minora reduction, enhances the appearance of the outer female genitalia (the labia majora and labia minora). It can be done for cosmetic reasons or for hygienic and functional ones. It usually corrects anomalies in the shape, size, or symmetry of the labia.
Labiaplasty vs. Vaginal Tightening
Labiaplasty isn't the same as vaginal tightening or vaginal rejuvenation. It eases discomfort or embarrassment and does not reduce the size of the vaginal canal. It can be performed alone or together with vaginoplasty.
The Procedure
Labiaplasty can be performed under local anesthesia, so you stay awake while the vaginal region is fully numb. The procedure reshapes the labia, the lips of the vagina. Incisions are placed carefully to prevent scarring along the labia rim. Unwanted tissue is removed, and the loose edge is closed with fine, dissolvable stitches that absorb within a couple of weeks.
Recovery
You may have mild swelling and discomfort after the procedure. About 80% of the swelling subsides within a week, and the rest over the following weeks. Depending on the complexity of the surgery and the suture type, full recovery can take five to eight weeks. Following the post-operation instructions our surgeons give you is vital to a faster recovery.
Vaginoplasty
Sometimes called “vaginal rejuvenation,” vaginoplasty tightens the walls of a vagina that has become loose or slack from childbirth or aging. It strengthens both the vaginal muscles and tissues while removing damaged or excess lining from the vaginal canal. The goal is to strengthen the workings of the vulva-vaginal structures.
The Vaginoplasty Procedure
We recommend vaginoplasty when the vaginal area has changed after childbirth or with aging. Those changes can include reduced firmness of the outer labia and reduced padding of the vaginal walls and mucosa.
Our surgeons can perform the procedure on the outer areas of the genitalia (the labia minora and the pubis mound) and on the inside. They place incisions carefully in the folds of the skin where they are less noticeable. The sutures are dissolvable and absorb in a few weeks.
Your Recovery Period
Vaginoplasty takes about one to two hours. It involves removing loose excess tissue, pulling the pelvic floor muscles closer together, or both. The result is a tighter, restructured vagina that provides more friction and more pleasure during intercourse.
Recovery from vaginoplasty is relatively easy, though it takes careful planning so the body heals properly. After the procedure, patients spend a few hours in our recovery room and are then cleared to go home, provided there are no complications.
The Benefits
The Benefits of Vaginoplasty
This surgery is especially effective at reversing relaxation or looseness caused by an episiotomy, a tear, or other birth canal damage. It changes the look of the labia and surrounding vaginal tissues, reducing discomfort and embarrassment.
Because vaginoplasty uses internal incisions to tighten the musculature, it improves both contraction control and strength. That increases the friction felt by both partners during intercourse, which improves sexual satisfaction. Vaginoplasty can also help if you have had genital prolapse or have a short urethra.
Labiaplasty and vaginoplasty are both strong options, performed by our experienced surgeons. They can be done together or individually, based on your needs and the recommendation of our surgeon.
