What is a Labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure that reduces or reshapes the labia minora (or sometimes labia majora) for comfort, function, or appearance. Women seek it for discomfort during exercise, intercourse, or with clothing, as well as for cosmetic reasons or changes after childbirth.
Surgery is done under local or general anesthesia and takes about 1 to 2 hours. Expect swelling and tenderness for 1 to 2 weeks, no intercourse or tampons for about 4 to 6 weeks, and full healing over a couple of months.
This is a sensitive, individualized procedure. Choose a board-certified plastic surgeon or gynecologic surgeon experienced in labiaplasty, and discuss realistic outcomes and technique.
How much does a Labiaplasty cost?
Labiaplasty nationally typically starts at $4,500 and ranges up to $8,100 all-in, depending on the technique and whether additional areas are treated.
These figures include the surgeon's fee, anesthesia, and facility costs. Complex cases and the most sought-after surgeons charge well above this range, particularly in New York and Los Angeles, where the top of the market runs into six figures.
