Case 09 / 13

SAP labiaplasty · labia minoraplasty + clitoral hood reduction

  • Patient28 years
  • LocationMelbourne
  • Follow-up9 days post-procedure

This patient is 28years of age who looked into labiaplasty or labia reduction surgery. She looked into this for approximately 10 years in terms of the different options available. Upon further assessment in line with Medical Board of Australia guidelines, she decided to alter the shape and profile of her labia minora as well as clitoral hood. Specifically, the surgical re-architecture of her labia involved reducing the width and thickness of the labia minora. In addition, the surgical element of controlling the angulation of the left side compared to the right was performed to balance symmetry. The clitoral hood was also reduced through an extended method. After discussing the risks of surgery and understanding the specific technique for labioplasty surgery with labia minoraplasty and clitoral hood reduction with specific adjuncts to reduce the risks of wound separation, she provided informed consent to proceed with surgery. The perioperative pain control was 0/10 to 1/10 according to the patient. Specific instructions were given to the patient tailored to her lifestyle and occupation within realistic expectations. Results are shown as below 9 days from surgery. The results demonstrate the healing process involving expected wound healing, bruising and moderate swelling with front and standing views respectively.

SAP labiaplasty · recovery progression

  • Patient28 years
  • LocationMelbourne
  • Follow-up9 days → 3 months

Following on the above patient's respective labiaplasty journey in Melbourne, she continued with Dr Nara's specific instructions in order to allow the soft tissues of the labia minora and clitoral hood to heal. The photographic results below demonstrate the labiaplasty progression journey from 9 days following SAP labiaplasty to 3 months after surgery. The visualisation of labia measurements or labiametrics at 3 months from surgery demonstrate the reduction of the width of the labia minora and clitoral hood in the coronal plane respectively in the supine position compared to 9 days from surgery.

SAP labiaplasty · labia minoraplasty + clitoral hood reduction

  • Patient21 years
  • LocationAdelaide
  • Follow-up7 weeks post-procedure

The patient below is 21 years of age who decided to have selective anatomic preservation labiaplasty in Adelaide. She previously had non-surgical treatment to address functional issues related to labia hypertrophy where the labia length reduced from an average of 7 cm to 6.9cm. She pursued surgical treatment to further reduce the labia dimensions. Results are shown 7 weeks from surgery where recovery from swelling and bruising is still apparent following recovery from unrelated medical illness. The labia lengths have been altered respectively for the left from 6.9cm to 1.9cm and for the right from 6.7cm to 1.8cm. Surgical technicalities involve multi-variant anatomical thickness, troughs and folds. The operation she had specifically involved labia minoraplasty and clitoral hood reduction with selective anatomic preservation labiaplasty performed by Dr Kishen Nara, trusted key stakeholder in intimate cosmetic procedures in Adelaide.

SAP labiaplasty · labia minoraplasty + clitoral hood reduction + labia majoraplasty

  • Patient28 years
  • LocationHobart
  • Follow-up8 months post-procedure

The 28 year old patient below from Hobart, Tasmania considered selective anatomic preservation labiaplasty with Dr Nara. As a busy working mother, she understood the responsibility required not just before but after surgery. Meticulous preparation and planning was taken to carefully plan surgery. She had considered labiaplasty primarily for symptomatic and hygiene reasons. In addition, the aesthetic selective anatomic preservation labiaplasty component was discussed to reduce the dimensions of the labia minora and clitoral hood and reduce the apparent height and width of the labia majora. This was carefully considered as to whether to perform this as a staged procedure or simultaneous procedure. After several comprehensive consultations, she considered the simultaneous labia minoraplasty, clitoral hood reduction and labia majoraplasty with the SAP selective anatomic preservation approach developed by Dr Nara. She was compliant with the after care process. Results are shown below at the 8 month mark. She reports 0/10 discomfort at this stage.

Questions about this gallery

  • 01 Does age matter for labiaplasty?
    There is no single right age for labiaplasty: suitability is assessed individually at consultation, based on anatomy, health and goals rather than a stated age. Dr Nara reviews each patient's circumstances before any procedure is considered appropriate. For the full discussion of who labiaplasty may suit, see labiaplasty in Melbourne.
  • 02 What are the alternatives to labiaplasty?
    Options may include no treatment at all, a non-surgical approach, or a different surgical technique, depending on the concern and anatomy involved. What is appropriate varies from patient to patient and is best worked through at a confidential consultation. The labia reduction surgery page covers the fuller discussion of options and technique.
  • 03 How should I read the timepoint on these photos?
    Each case above states a follow-up timepoint (from 9 days to several months post-procedure) because healing changes the appearance of the area considerably over that period. A photograph taken early in recovery, while swelling and bruising are still settling, looks different from the same case months later. Reading the timepoint first, before comparing anatomy between cases, gives a more honest read of what any photograph can and cannot show.
