"labiaplasty"의 정의 및 의미

What is "labiaplasty"?

Labiaplasty is a surgical procedure for changing the size or shape of the labia, which are the folds of skin surrounding the vaginal opening, with the labia minora being the inner lips and the labia majora the outer lips. Labiaplasty is often chosen by individuals wanting to reduce discomfort from large or uneven labia, improve appearance, or address insecurities related to genital appearance. During labiaplasty, excess tissue is cut or reshaped to achieve the desired shape. Recovery typically involves some swelling and discomfort, and patients are usually able to resume normal activities after a few weeks. The final results aim to give a more comfortable, symmetrical, and attractive appearance to the labia.
