Will labiaplasty affect the sensation of sex life? Some friends ask whether labiaplasty will affect the sensation of sex life after the surgery. First of all, labia minora is indeed an organ with a wide distribution of nerve endings, which corresponds to its function. The labia minora plastic surgery, whether it is a marginal excision or a wedge excision, will affect the nerves to a certain extent. However, the main sensitive areas of stimulation in female sexual sensation are the clitoris and the outer third of the vagina. These two areas are the main areas of sexual sensation, and the labia minora only plays a secondary role. If the labia minora becomes more beautiful after plastic surgery, I think it will only have a good effect on the feeling of sexual life, but not a bad one yet. How long does it take to remove the stitches after labiaplasty? How long does it take to recover? Some friends ask how long does it take to remove the stitches after labia minora surgery? Some other friends want to know how long can they recover after labia minora surgery? Then for the first question is this, the choice of sutures for labia minora surgery, you can choose absorbable sutures and non-absorbable sutures. The advantage of absorbable sutures is that there is no need to remove the sutures after the surgery, and the sutures will fall off automatically. However, some people may experience the adverse reaction of long post-operative edema after labia minora surgery with absorbable sutures, so we can also choose to use removable sutures for suturing. Generally speaking, the stitches can be removed in about 7 days after surgery, but there will be some pain when the stitches are removed, which is caused by the dense distribution of nerve endings in the labia minora itself. The second question is about how long it takes to recover. Generally speaking, according to my experience, after labia minora surgery, you will experience a period of edema, which varies from person to person, usually from two weeks to a month, and then you will go through a series of recovery processes such as the shedding of the stitches. In general, you can fully recover in about two months after surgery. What are the procedures of labiaplasty? Some of you are also concerned about what are the main surgical procedures for labiaplasty of the labia minora? There are various types of labiaplasty surgery, generally speaking, they can be divided into marginal excision, wedge excision, epithelial excision, etc. These surgical methods are not different from each other, and they are mainly based on the different growth patterns of the labia minora of the candidates. If the labia minora as a whole is enlarged and has black edges, we usually take the marginal excision method for treatment. The advantage of this is that the excess labia minora tissue can be removed at one time, and the black edge, or pigmented area, can be completely removed at the same time. If the labia minora is acutely convex, this kind of excision is usually done in a wedge shape because it can effectively shorten the length of the labia minora and will make the incision more beautiful. Other methods are not used very often. According to my personal clinical experience, ninety percent or even more than ninety percent of labia minora plastic surgery can be treated by a combination of marginal excision and wedge excision. What kind of labia minora should be treated surgically? Some friends also ask what kind of labia minora needs to be treated surgically. Generally speaking, there are only two reasons for surgery, one is aesthetic and the other is functional. First of all, for functional reasons, many women have enlarged labia minora, which will cause them to have the symptoms of leg pinching and pain when wearing tight pants or skirts. Then this symptom affects the daily life and needs to be treated surgically. In some cases, because of the enlarged labia minora, the labia minora will be brought into the vagina during sex, causing pain and discomfort and affecting the feeling of sex life. This situation also needs to be treated surgically. Some women also have asymmetrical labia minora on both sides, which also affects the aesthetics and can be treated surgically. There are also some friends who feel that the edges of the labia minora have more pigmentation and look older, so they can also undergo surgery. Generally speaking, some of the growth of labia minora starts from puberty, but in puberty, people are still in the development stage and the size of labia minora is not yet fixed. If you find that your labia minora has a tendency to increase in size or hypertrophy, then we recommend that you have surgery after you become an adult, after the age of 18 to 20. The results of the surgery will be better in this case.
