Labiaplasty vs. Vaginoplasty: Understanding the Key Differences 📚
These terms are often confused, but they address completely different concerns. Let us break this down clearly.
Labiaplasty focuses on the external structures—specifically the l***a minora (inner lips) and sometimes the l***a majora (outer lips). This procedure addresses concerns like:
▫️Excess tissue causing discomfort during exercise or intimacy
▫️Asymmetry or aesthetic concerns
▫️Irritation from clothing or activities
Vaginoplasty addresses the internal vaginal canal and surrounding muscles. This procedure focuses on:
▫️ Vaginal laxity, often after childbirth
▫️Loss of muscle tone and support
▫️Functional concerns affecting intimacy
Here's what's important: These are distinct procedures that solve different problems. Some women may benefit from one, the other, or occasionally both—but they address separate areas and concerns.
Your consultation matters. We take time to understand your specific concerns and explain which procedure, if any, would address your goals. No assumptions, just honest education.
