It is unfortunate but true—many women suffer from the discomfort associated with the size and shape of their labia. But did you know that this is not something you have to live with for the rest of your life? A gynecologist can help by performing labiaplasty surgery to reduce the sagging skin of the labia and rejuvenate the vagina to a more youthful shape and appearance.
With nearly 20 years of experience in women’s healthcare, sexual health, and aesthetic treatments, Dr. Evans utilizes procedures like labiaplasty to help women be healthier, feel sexier, and experience improved sex lives with their partners.
How Labiaplasty Can Improve Your (Sex) Life
As aging occurs, the skin begins to lose that firm, taught appearance we enjoyed in our youth. And while this change is most noticeable in the face, arms, or tummy, the same aging process occurs in the vagina. If you have experienced sagging or lengthening of the labia, a gynecologist can remove the excess skin to create a younger-looking vagina.
If you are self-conscious about the appearance of your labia, or you experience pain during normal daily activities or sexual intercourse due to the shape of your labia, you are not truly living your life to the fullest. By performing labiaplasty, a gynecologist can help you feel more comfortable in clothing and more confident in bed with your partner.
When Can I Start Having Sex Again?
Your labiaplasty will take place on an outpatient basis either at your local gynecologist’s office or at other medical facilities where your doctor is on staff. This procedure typically takes about 2-3 hours, and your gynecologist can utilize various levels of anesthesia based on your needs and preferences.
During consultations with labiaplasty patients, Dr. Evans is often asked about how much time one should abstain from sexual intercourse after the surgery. While she is a huge proponent of a healthy sex life, there are times when abstinence is required.
To avoid distortion of your labia and excessive swelling, you should wait about 6-8 weeks after labiaplasty before resuming sexual intercourse with your partner—this includes all types of intercourse that involve physical contact with the vagina. However, this time could vary, and Dr. Evans or your local gynecologist will give you the “all clear” after determining that your vagina has healed properly.
Not only does your gynecologist want you to experience a safe recovery period, but they also want you to enjoy your results. If you begin sexual intercourse too early, your final results could be affected. Do not worry; our practice will be there to make your experience as supported and comfortable as possible.
