What is Labiaplasty Surgery?
The goal of labiaplasty surgery is to reduce or reshape enlarged labia minora or majora. Most patients want to improve the appearance of the labia, but in some cases the labia can cause pain during physical activity and intercourse. There are different types of labiaplasty techniques that can be used to address the patient’s anatomy and needs. Dr. Crofts will go over the surgery options during your consultation.

Journey to Confidence
At your consultation, you will be able to discuss questions and voice what you would like changed through surgery. Dr Crofts will discuss the details of the procedure and create a surgical plan with you. Our office staff will provide you with a surgery quote and can help schedule your procedure.
You will have a pre-operative appointment three weeks prior to surgery. At this appointment, you will sign consents, discuss any last minute questions and concerns, and get further pre- and post-surgery instructions.
Your surgery will take place at an accredited facility. This is generally a 2 to 3 hour procedure and you will be released home on the same day.
Generally, you will be seen 1 to 3 days after surgery and again 4 to 5 days later. Further post operative appointments will continue and be dependent upon your recovery.
Recovery for labiaplasty procedure is 2 weeks of no lifting or exercising. Patients must refrain from sexual intercourse for about 4 weeks. Patients typically feel well enough to go back to work around 2-3 days after their surgery. At Aesthetica, post operative care and safety is our number one priority. We see patients frequently after their procedure to assure healing and recovery is on track. Patients also have 24 hour access to a nurse on call for emergencies.
Feel the results, see the difference, and enjoy the confidence
Aesthetica Plastic Surgery Reviews
Couldn't be happier!!! Amazing experience! - I could not have had a better experience with Dr. Croft and his staff. I received a breast re-augmentation with a lift and labiaplasty. Right away I felt extremely comfortable and trusted Dr. Kimball's expertise. He is talented, personable, honest, and caring. His staff was a joy to work with and equally courteous and helpful. Dr. Croft gave me exactly what I had envisioned!! I beyond happy with the results and would absolutely recommend him. Thanks so much!!!
