  • If you smoke, you will need to stop for six weeks before and after surgery

Labiaplasty Surgical Details

Dr. Parakh performs the labiaplasty procedure with the patient under general or local anesthesia. The surgery takes 1-2 hours. 

Dr. Parakh will use either the trim technique (in which the excess tissue is removed directly) or the wedge technique (in which she removes a “wedge” from both sides of the labia, then stitches the edges together). The goal is to shorten and/or reshape the vaginal lips.

Your Labiaplasty Consultation with Dr. Parakh

Before your labiaplasty, you will undergo a consultation with Dr. Parakh at her Englewood, NJ office. During this initial session, Dr. Parakh will go over your concerns and goals for the surgery. She will talk to you about what is involved with the procedure, the risks, and recovery.

Dr. Parakh will perform a physical exam to better understand your anatomy, and she will also give you the opportunity to ask any questions you may have. The goal of the consultation is to have your questions answered, educate you, and help you become comfortable with Dr. Parakh and her practice before your labiaplasty in New Jersey. 

Recovery: What to Expect After Labiaplasty

Labiaplasty is an outpatient procedure, which means you’ll be able to recover at home. We recommend that you rest in bed for 24 hours following surgery.

Following your labiaplasty in New Jersey, you may experience swelling, discomfort, and spot bleeding. The length of your recovery will depend on how carefully you follow Dr. Parakh’s instructions, but most women return to work and routine activities in about one week. Exercise can usually be resumed at four weeks. If you begin your period during recovery, avoid using tampons. You’ll also need to avoid wearing thong underwear and tight clothing. Avoiding sexual intercourse for one month is advised.
