What is a Labiaplasty? (labial reduction) Trimming or removing excess skin around the vagina is call a labiaplasty. It is performed to make your private area visually appealing and decrease any discomfort. Some women may feel self-conscious about their sexual anatomy due to their labia shape or size. This can even cause discomfort during exercise, sexual function, or wearing tight-fitting clothes. The folds of skin around the vagina are called the labia. There are two skin folds, and the outer folds are the labia major or “large lips.” This fold protects your external genital organs and is covered with public hair. The inner folds are the labia minor or “small lips.” These folds protect your urethra and vagina. It is very common for women to experience changes in size, shape, and symmetry of labial tissue from hormonal changes, childbirth, weight loss, and aging. You can get back your younger and tighter labia and receive an improvement in vaginal dryness and laxity with Elite-V™ that will lead to improved sensation for the patient and their partner. The treatment may also be beneficial for relieving urinary incontinence. Many women opt for a surgical labiaplasty, however, Dr. Joelle Lieman, our founder and Medical Director, created the noninvasive Elite-V™ nonsurgical treatment. As a Board Certified, Obstetrician/Gynecologist, Dr. Lieman believes that a scarless nonsurgical labiaplasty will benefit her patients with no downtime. She has created this safe and comfortable treatment to rejuvenate and tighten the vaginal tissues resulting in surgical-like results. View our gallery for images of before and after Elite-V™results.
