Vaginal Rejuvenation and Tightening

While labiaplasty is a highly popular aesthetic procedure for vaginal rejuvenation in Austin, not all labiaplasties are purely cosmetic.

Many women feel quite a bit of discomfort from having overly large or elongated labia while doing everyday activities, or even simply wearing certain clothing. At Modern Women's Health, we offer labiaplasty in Austin in the operating room under systemic anesthesia, or if a patient is a good candidate, in the office under a combination of local anesthesia and ProNox (self-regulated, an inhaled combination of nitrous oxide).

Surgical labiaplasty is a permanent way to address elongation and/or asymmetry of the labia minora. 

Enhance Your Intimate Wellness with Dr. Jukes

Dr. Jukes is also very pleased to offer the AVIVA procedure combined with Morpheus8, which addresses the entire labia majora, labia minora, clitoral hood, vaginal opening, and mons. Over time, the clitoral hood may elongate — and though clitoral hood reduction can be done surgically, Dr. Jukes’s preference is AVIVA scarless, in-office surgery to address this issue. AVIVA is done in a single treatment with very little downtime. Indeed, AVIVA results in an average retraction of the minora by 30-45%, and results should be sustainable for 3-5 years or longer. A non-invasive option to address the appearance of the labia is FormaV — and it, too, can be combined with Morpheus8V with approximately an 18% tightening/reduction over a series of three in-office treatments.

What is Surgical Labiaplasty?

A surgical labiaplasty in Austin improves the appearance of enlarged or elongated labia minora (inner vaginal lips) and the labia majora (outer vaginal lips). It is performed with the patient either under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Every patient will require slight differences, but in general, Dr. Jukes will create incisions on the labia in order to remove excess tissue, and will then suture the incisions. Patients can usually go home the same day. A surgical labiaplasty may require up to one week of recovery. Medication or cold compresses can help with any discomfort and swelling. For the smoothest recovery, avoiding sexual intercourse for six weeks is advised. Potential risks of surgical labiaplasty include pain, bleeding, infection, need for scar revision, and wound dehiscence.

How to Prepare for Surgical Labiaplasty?

We will provide you with detailed instructions on how to prepare for your labiaplasty during the days and weeks before your procedure, but a few general things to know are that you’ll need to avoid long showers and rubbing the treated area after washing. (Instead, pat dry.)

Following vaginal rejuvenation in Austin, activities such as bike riding, running, and exercise will need to wait until Dr. Jukes advises you that you may continue. Avoid wearing tight clothes of any kind during recovery, and avoid sexual intercourse for one month following surgery.

We advise stopping the use of certain types of supplements and medications that may interfere with your recovery, as well as quitting smoking. Any prescriptions should be filled before your surgery day, and you will need to arrange a ride home from the procedure. 

When is Labiaplasty Deemed a Medical Necessity?

Labiaplasty may be considered medically necessary in the following cases:

  • Physical discomfort from elongated or enlarged labia minora causing chronic pain, discomfort, or irritation during physical activities, walking, or sexual intercourse.
  • Functional impairment due to enlarged labia minora interfering with urinary function or hygiene, leading to recurrent urinary tract infections or difficulties in maintaining personal hygiene.
  • Congenital abnormalities, injuries, or asymmetries causing significant physical discomfort or limitations.
  • Severe psychological distress, known as labial dysmorphia, resulting in anxiety, depression, or a negative impact on self-esteem and quality of life.
  • Medical necessity is determined individually by healthcare professionals, considering specific circumstances and symptoms.

It's important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to assess your specific needs and determine the appropriateness of labiaplasty as a medical treatment option.

Labiaplasty FAQ

Is the Labiaplasty procedure painful?

How long will the results of my Labiaplasty last?

What factors should I consider before getting a Labiaplasty?

Is the Labiaplasty procedure painful?

The procedure is typically performed under local or general anesthesia, and it involves carefully trimming and reshaping the labial tissue. Post-operatively, some discomfort and soreness can be expected, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication and supportive measures. The level of discomfort may vary, and you can be sure we will guide pain management during the recovery period.

How long will the results of my Labiaplasty last?

The results of labiaplasty are typically long-lasting. Once the healing process is complete, the changes made to the labial tissue are generally considered permanent. However, it's essential to remember that individual factors, such as aging and natural tissue changes, may impact the long-term appearance. It's advisable to discuss any specific concerns about the longevity of results with a qualified healthcare professional during the consultation process.

What factors should I consider before getting a Labiaplasty?

At Modern Woman’s Health, we always encourage our patients to understand any procedure's potential risks and benefits and to have realistic expectations about the results. We recommend you evaluate your emotional readiness for the procedure, consider lifestyle adjustments during recovery, and choose a qualified healthcare provider you trust. Taking the time to consider these factors carefully will ensure you feel empowered going forward.
