Note: These are basic/general comments and remarks. Please refer to your T&Cs first, and your specific post-operative guidelines issued during your stay with BBC Direct. These will be specific to your needs, and may/will differ to these general notes below.
This operation solves hypertrophy of labia. Very often, it is the case that each side of the labia is of different size, so operation also corrects such asymmetry too.
The most common reason for this operation is the uncomfortable feeling in tight clothes, sometimes uncomfortable or painful sensation during; sexual intercourse, biking etc.
Another reasons can be also aesthetic. Women who are not happy with shape or size of labia and decide to correct it. As with other problem areas, any feelings of discomfort can have adverse effects on self-confidence and personal relationships. In such instances, labia reduction treatment may help, especially if the lips are asymmetrical or particularly long.
Labia reduction normally takes place under general anaesthetic, or local anaesthetic plus sedation.
The shape of labia is corrected by cutting off excessive tissues and then stitched by sewing their edges with dissolvable stitches & high standard of hygiene is important.
After complete healing – in about 2 months – this line of the cut is almost unrecognizable.
The operation should not be performed at the time of your period.
After definitive healing – in about 2 months – the line of the cut is almost unrecognizable.
The results should be permanent.
After the surgery, the genital area can be swollen, and to some extent painful, therefore it is very likely that you should avoid any sexual intercourse for upto six weeks (in most cases).
There is also the risk of infection, permanent colour change and loss of sensation.
Important, Before You Fly:
Please advise us if you are taking aspirins, as we need to make sure that you have at least two clear weeks of not taking them, before any operation.
When choosing your operation date, please make sure that the start date of your period does not commence on date of operation. The operation will be cancelled, and we cannot be held responsible for any costs associated with rebooking of flights etc., - around new date(s) offered. Please note: It does not matter if your period starts immediately after the operation. If in doubt, please select dates which you can be sure about, or see your local GP, as they can offer tablets/medication to delay your period.
