How to deal with labia minora

I believe that many women know about gynecological diseases, but their understanding of them is still vague. Excessively large labia minora actually means hypertrophy of the labia minora, and there is a solution to this problem. Generally, hospitals usually choose surgical treatment to deal with problems such as hypertrophy of the labia minora. If labia minora hypertrophy is not treated in time, it will have a certain impact on people's lives, so it must be treated as soon as possible.

According to relevant experts, when enlarged labia minora causes a certain burden on life and psychology, it can be corrected through labiaplasty, and surgery is also the only way to treat enlarged labia minora. Labia minora reduction surgery should be performed away from menstruation and pregnancy. Generally, a longitudinal fusiform excision is performed on the outer side of the labia minora. Before the operation, it is necessary to pay attention to cleaning the vulva. The surgery is performed in the lithotomy position and local infiltration anesthesia is used. Generally, a longitudinal fusiform incision about 2.5 cm long is made on the outer side of the labia minora. After removing the skin and pushing the soft tissue inward, strict hemostasis is performed and the incision is sutured with fine silk thread.

If the labia minora is significantly enlarged, the enlarged part will be removed to form a new standard labia minora. After the operation, the newly formed labia minora will regain natural color, be of moderate size, and have a beautiful appearance. There will be no local scars and no postoperative sequelae. The operation is performed under local anesthesia, takes a short time, and you can go home immediately after the operation. The stitches will be removed after one week.

Precautions before surgery:

1. It is best to perform labia minora shaping surgery 3 to 14 days after menstruation.

2. Stop taking any medications, vitamins, and other nutritional supplements before labiaplasty to prevent affecting wound healing and increasing intraoperative bleeding. Stop smoking for one week before labiaplasty as smoking reduces the oxygen concentration in the blood and affects wound healing.

The above is the treatment for enlarged labia minora. Many people choose to undergo surgical treatment when they find that their labia minora are too large. The success rate of surgical treatment is relatively low, and it is also a relatively common minor operation. The operation is simple, but attention should be paid to the post-operative care. Although the operation is small, there are many small details that require people to be extra careful.
