What is a Labiaplasty?

Labia correction is a surgical procedure that repairs, rejuvenates or recreates the labia. The vaginal lips consist of two folds that protect the vaginal opening. The labia can become deformed or stretched from a variety of events or trauma, including childbirth and sexual activity. Labia correction is generally considered to be the operation after vaginoplasty in gender reassignment surgery.

The scars can be minimal to moderate, but depending on their location, they can go completely unnoticed. When performed as a sex reassignment surgery, a combination surgery can be performed that combines vaginal plastic surgery and labiaplasty in one operation.
