1. Reduction Labiaplasty - Vulvar Labia Reduction
Candidates for surgery
- In some women the labia minoramay be more voluminous, with the labia majora protruding to a greater or lesser degree.
- Sometimes it is both the labia minora and the labia majora that are enlarged. This increase in size may be congenital, or acquired with age or from childbirth.
Some of these women dislike this enlarged size of their labia minora and it may cause embarrassment with their sexual partner or discomfort in tight pants, with sports or during intercourse.
The operation consists of removing the excess tissue and resizing it to a smaller size.
- In the case of labia minora accommodate the size within the labia majora.
- In the case of the labia majora to obtain greater censorship less volume.
Anesthesia: the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, either with local anesthesia and sedation or with general anesthesia depending on the characteristics of each patient.
It is important to keep in mind that after the procedure you should wash daily with an antiseptic after going to the bathroom to avoid infections.
You should also avoid strenuous walking for two weeks following the procedure to prevent tears from occurring.
You should avoid sexual relations that involve trauma to the operated area as well as riding a bicycle for one month.
It is normal that during the first weeks there is an increase in the volume of the operated lips due to swelling.
The stitches are reabsorbable.
Post-operative scars are practically imperceptible with the passage of time, due to the nature of the tissues.
The definitive result can be perceived after the fifth month.
2. Augmentation Labiaplasty - Vulvar Labia Augmentation
With the passage of time, as happens with the rest of the body’s tissues, the body loses collagen and elastin, as well as suffering the effects of gravity. The labia majora in turn can suffer from the effects of childbirth. This aging is characterized in the labia majora by flaccidity, loss of volume, sagging and wrinkles.
The correction of this condition can be performed according to the degree of affectation with different treatments that can be medical, such as hyaluronic acid infiltration, or a combination of medical and surgical.
Lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid
When we need to give volume to the labia majora, hyaluronic acid is an effective and fast alternative to obtain the desired result.
Hyaluronic acid filler in the labia majora is applied painlessly and provides an immediate volumizing result.
The approximate duration of the volume obtained is 3 to 5 months, always taking into account the amount of volume injected and the patient’s capacity for resorption.
Post-treatment period:
- Some slight bruising may occur at the application site, which disappears with the passage of time.
- After application of hyaluronic acid it is advisable to take hygienic measures during the first 3 days after which you can lead a normal life, except for cycling.
Lip augmentation with fat grafting of own fat
Rejuvenation of the labia majora through the application of the patient’s own fat is one of the treatments we recommend for genital rejuvenation.

The procedure can be performed under local anesthesia, both for fat removal and infiltration of the labia majora.
The fat may be partially reabsorbed so that the definitive result will be seen three months after the procedure.
If the patient desires more volume after this period of time, the fat injection procedure can be repeated.
After the procedure the patient can return home immediately.
During the first few days after the fat injection there is an enlargement and smoothness of the labia majora, which may be immediately combined with some edema or swelling.
The coloration of the labia majora during the first few days may be bluish due to trauma to small vessels in the labia majora, which will recover with the passage of time.
It is recommended not to engage in sexual practices involving trauma to the area for 15 days after surgery and to avoid riding a bicycle for one month.
3. Genital rejuvenation through non-surgical treatments
Radiofrecuencia
Radiofrequency applied to the labia majora produces a stimulation of the tissue that composes them and promotes the production of collagen fibers and stimulates the tightening of the skin.
This technique can be combined with different types of lasers to enhance the effect and add efficacy.
Post-treatment period:
- A warming sensation is produced in the applied area, which causes some discomfort during the hours following the treatment.
- It is recommended after the treatment to apply XTRM, serum-C and XTRM-H creams daily in the morning and evening for a period of one month, the radiofrequency treatment can be repeated every 15 days.
- Sexual activity can be resumed after 3-4 days.
- We recommend not riding a bicycle for one week.
Laser
The light therapies using coherent light used for the rejuvenation of the labia majora are mainly:
- Neodymium Yag laser
- Erbium Crystal Laser
- El Erbium-YAG.
The use of one or more lasers will depend on the objective of the treatment.
They are painless treatments that are performed, for maximum protection, through the application of an anesthetic cream.
Post-treatment period:
- After treatment, expect some burning sensation and discomfort for one or two days and in some cases some peeling of the vulvar skin.
- It is recommended after the treatment to apply XTRM, serum-C and XTRM-H creams daily in the morning and evening for a period of one month, the radiofrequency treatment can be repeated every 15 days.
- Sexual activity can be resumed after 3-4 days.
- We recommend not riding a bicycle for one week.
Laserfrequency
This treatment consists of the combined application of radiofrequency and laser energy.
The use of these two energies enhances the result in terms of smoothness and skin tone of the labia majora.
Post-treatment period:
- A warming sensation is produced in the applied area, which causes some discomfort during the hours following the treatment.
- It is recommended after the treatment to apply XTRM, serum-C and XTRM-H creams daily in the morning and evening for a period of one month, the radiofrequency treatment can be repeated every 15 days.
- Sexual activity can be resumed after 3-4 days.
- We recommend not riding a bicycle for one week.
L-PRF plasma
Los derivados plasmáticos del tipo L-PRF se pueden aplicar de manera individual, en forma de mesoterapia, combinaba con el láser y la radiofrecuencia.
The capacity of platelet derivatives to stimulate the tissues where they are injected is well known. Applied in combination, they multiply the effect of treatments applied individually.
L-PRF can be applied individually as a biological volumizer as well as a spot connective tissue growth stimulator in these circumstances.
The duration is about 3 days, although the stimulating effect on the connective tissue of the labia majora is cumulative over time.
When we use platelet derivatives combined with fat grafts we increase the survival of fat in the tissues. 1,2
Post-treatment period:
- Sexual activity can be resumed after 3-4 days.
- We recommend not riding a bicycle for one week.
