What is Labiaplasty Surgery?
Labiaplasty is a procedure that has been increasing in demand and popularity in the United States. It is a surgical procedure that reduces the size and volume of enlarged or asymmetric labia minora (inner labia) and/or majora (outer labia) to achieve improved comfort, sexual satisfaction, symmetry and desired appearance. Patients may seek labiaplasty procedures due to aesthetic and/or functional concerns.
The goal of labiaplasty is individualized to the patient’s unique presentation and aesthetic desire. The goal is to achieve genital proportion and harmony for each specific patient anatomy. Patient satisfaction of over 90% has been reported in studies from labiaplasty procedures, with patients reporting significant improvement in sexual satisfaction for partner and self.
Dr. Mahmoud utilizes two gold standard approaches in our labiaplasty surgery clinic in New Jersey & New York City – the trim technique and the wedge technique.
Labiaplasty Wedge Technique
The wedge technique is a newer and more advanced alternative to trim labiaplasty. During this method, Dr. Ammar makes careful incisions to remove a V-shaped “wedge” from both sides of the labia and then reattaches the remaining edges together.
Main Benefits:
- Maintains natural anatomy
- Preserves border of labia minora
- Avoids stitches at labial border
- Less chances of developing scars
Labiaplasty Trim Technique
During trim labiaplasty an incision is made that removes the outer edges of the inner labia, creating improved symmetry by making the inner labia even with the outer labia while removing redundant tissue.
Main Benefits:
- One of the most desirable effects of the trim labiaplasty technique is that it eliminates the darkest pigmented part of the labia. For many women, removal of the darker edges is an important cosmetic reason why they choose to have labiaplasty.
The best way to determine which surgical approach is best suited for you is to discuss your concerns and goals with Dr. Ammar during the consultation.

Clitoral Hood Reduction
Clitoral hood reduction is often performed alongside a labiaplasty. Also called a hoodectomy, it’s a surgical technique which reduces the size of the clitoral hood by trimming away excess tissue. Normally the clitoral hood covers the clitoris to protect it from external irritation and friction. For some women, however, excess skin overhang in the clitoral area may cause discomfort, infections and decreased sexual enjoyment. Clitoral hood reduction can be performed on its own or as part of a larger procedure.
Procedures that Complement Labiaplasty
Dr. Mahmoud offers a number of other procedures that may enhance the results of a surgical labiaplasty. These include O-shot (amplification of G-spot via your body’s own matrix to increase sensual gratification) and fat transfer to labia majora, vulva and/or vagina. At Labiaplasty New York City, we also offer other leading procedures including clitoral hood reduction, perineal scar revision and laser vaginal rejuvenation.
Non-Surgical Vaginal Rejuvenation?
In certain cases Dr. Mahmoud may recommend a non-surgical approach to vaginal rejuvenation or combine surgical procedures with non-invasive treatments, such as radio-frequency and laser therapy.
Benefits of Vaginal Rejuvenation
- Reduce the size, prominence, or asymmetry of Labia Minora and/or Majora
- Treat Pain or Discomfort Associated with Enlarged and Protruding Labia
- Improve the Appearance and Function of the Vagina, Vulva, and Labia.
- Boost Confidence, Comfort and Quality of Life
- Improve Sexual Satisfaction

Perineal Scar Revision
It’s common for women to experience tearing of the perineum during childbirth, a condition that can lead to scarring and disfigurement. Perineal Scar Revision surgery can correct post-partum scar tissue to improve its appearance and functionality. Your surgeon may recommend vaginoplasty at the same time to rebuild your vaginal muscles and improve tightness.

Vaginal Fat Transfer
As we age we lose natural fullness in our skin, including the vulvar region. Vulvar fat grafting involves transferring fat from another area to the vulva in order to restore firmness and correct any asymmetry. The biggest advantage of this procedure is using your own fat which reduces any adverse reactions.

Why Women Have Labiaplasty Surgery?

After surgery, the end result is a more aesthetic appearance of the labia that allows women to exercise, be active and engage in sexual intimacy without the discomfort of certain anatomical irregularities related to the vulva.
The first step in regaining your confidence through vaginal rejuvenation begins with a comprehensive consultation and assessment. Industry-leading gynecologist and Labiaplasty NYC Doctor Ammar Mahmoud will review your medical history and listen carefully to your concerns before recommending a customized treatment plan just for you.
FAQ’s
Who is the Ideal Candidate for Clitoral Hood Reduction?
Just like the labia, a woman’s clitoral hood can vary in shape and size. Excess tissue or skin overhang of the clitoral hood may lead to masking of the clitoris during intimacy causing a decrease in sexual satisfaction. Similarly, excess skin/tissue may lead to irritation or discomfort during the course of day-to-day activity or exercise. If this is so, then clitoral hood reduction may offer relief. It can also improve the appearance of the clitoral area.
What are the Benefits of Clitoral Hood Reduction?
Clitoral hood reduction can restore balance and the appearance of the female genitalia. The procedure can also improve sexual function and increase the ability to achieve clitoral orgasms.

How can a woman tell if she needs Labiaplasty?
A woman may be a candidate for labiaplasty if she’s unhappy or embarrassed with the appearance of her labia. The size, symmetry and appearance of the labia can be affected by many factors. This may be a condition that was present from adolescence or perhaps a problem developed after childbirth or other trauma. If the appearance of the labia interferes with being able to perform physical activity, enjoy sexual relationships or appearance detracts from self-esteem then a labiaplasty may help a woman look and feel better.

What kind of anaesthesia is used during Labiaplasty?
