Labial Reduction
Surgical Procedure
During surgery the inner folds of the labia are timed so that they no longer protrude. This is done by either reducing the edges of the labia, or by snipping out a ‘V’ shape wedge of tissue. Then the remaining edges are carefully sutured back together, the surgeon taking care to obtain as natural a result as possible.
