Labiaplasty

Precision, and Confidence in Feminine Aesthetics

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape or reduce the size of the labia minora (inner lips) or labia majora (outer lips) for women experiencing discomfort, self-consciousness, or aesthetic concerns. While every vulva is different, some women feel that excess tissue interferes with comfort, clothing, exercise, or intimacy — and choose labiaplasty as a way to feel more confident in their own bodies. Dr. Affie Tourani is an experienced, understanding female gynaecologist who performs labiaplasty with a focus on both aesthetic refinement and functional preservation.

Why Women Choose Labiaplasty

  • Discomfort during exercise, cycling, or wearing tight clothing

  • Irritation or chafing in daily activities

  • Pain or self-consciousness during intimacy

  • Asymmetry or stretching after childbirth, ageing, or hormonal changes

  • Aesthetic preferences and personal comfort

These concerns are valid and often under-discussed — and Dr. Tourani provides a safe, respectful space to talk openly and explore options.

What the Procedure Involves

Labiaplasty is usually performed under local anaesthetic with sedation or light general anaesthetic. The surgery typically takes 1–2 hours and involves careful trimming or reshaping of the labia minora or majora using one of the following techniques:

  • Trim technique – removes excess edge tissue for a neater contour

  • Wedge technique – preserves the natural border by removing a V-shaped portion of tissue

  • Customized technique – tailored approach for symmetry or combined concerns (e.g., clitoral hood)

Dr. Tourani prioritises minimal scarring and preservation of natural sensation.
