Labiaplasty in Fredericksburg, VA
What Is A Labiaplasty?
Although it isn't talked about openly, many women have concerns about the size and shape of their labia, which can cause them to be less confident. Plastic surgeons Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki want to help Fredericksburg, VA women feel more attractive and comfortable with vaginal rejuvenation surgery to correct the size and shape of the labia. The labia, the external lips of the vaginal area, can look larger or have hanging skin due to natural aging, childbirth, pregnancy, or physical trauma. A labiaplasty is a surgery that reduces the size of the labia majora and/or minora to create a more normal look. This could diminish discomfort and irritation while increasing confidence and sexual pleasure. Come in for a consultation at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg in Fredericksburg, VA to hear more about labiaplasty, and find out if you may be a candidate for vaginal rejuvenation surgery.
How Is A Labiaplasty Performed?
Most vaginal rejuvenation treatments are performed under anesthesia in our facility. If the procedure is more complex, you may need anesthesia at an accredited facility so you will need a responsible friend or family member to drive you home after your procedure. A labiaplasty is generally done with the trim technique to remove extra tissue. Next, the remaining skin is stitched so it is taut. Also available is the wedge technique that removes a pie-shaped piece of skin and extra folds from the clitoral hood before suturing the skin closed.

Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg Reviews
I did my research and I found Dr Heppe was one of Northern Virginia’s top plastic surgeons. When I met Dr Heppe and his staff, I was very happy on how friendly and knowledgeable they were. On the day of my procedure, which is done in the building, I was very much impressed with how the process was done. All my questions and concerns were answered. I am a registered nurse, and I am acutely aware of when infection control procedures are followed and not followed, I absolutely felt safe in this environment. I am now three months out from my surgery and I am very much pleased with the results. I did not have any postoperative complications nor any infection. I honestly can highly recommend Dr.Heppe. I had a brachioplasty done and it’s the first time in 30 years that I’ve worn sleeveless tops and dresses. I wish I had done this earlier! Thank you to Dr Heppe and his staff. I have sent friends to him and they are pleased as well. Connie W RN

Five Stars are Not enough for Dr. Aflaki. I did revision rhinoplasty and I cannot thank him enough for such an amazing job he has done. The best decision I made. He is simply the best, number one plastic surgeon.
I had a breast augmentation with Dr. Bautista and I am so happy that I chose him. I came into the office because one breast was larger than the other. Dr. Bautista examined me and told me what he was able to do which was stitch up the larger breast so gravity wouldn't pull it down so hard after surgery. Nearly 3 months later they are sitting evenly and I'm so happy. The nurses were great as well. I had other medical doctors and they ensured I got a doctor's note to approve the surgery as well as making sure they honor my latex allergy. Everyone was so nice and the process was just so welcoming and amazing. Highly recommend!

Labiaplasty FAQ
Will vaginal rejuvenation surgery cause insensitivity?
As with any surgery, you may have short-term numbness in the treated area after the procedure is completed. This is usually temporary as your vaginal tissue and skin recover. Regarding sexual sensitivity, it is important to understand that labia rejuvenation corrects the vaginal lips and not the clitoris. Our skilled plastic surgeons have many years of experience performing cosmetic vaginal surgery and avoiding the clitoris to prevent desensitizing the area.
What is the recovery process like after a labiaplasty?
Prior to your surgery, our surgical team will explain what to expect after your labiaplasty plus tips to make your recovery more comfortable. You will expect some bruising and swelling in the treated areas plus a certain amount of discomfort right after your surgery. You should plan to stay home for at least a week before resuming non-strenuous activities. Our surgeons will assess your recovery in your follow-up appointments and tell you when you can resume exercise and sexual activity.
Are there nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation treatments?
Nonsurgical vaginal rejuvenation treatments are available, which may improve mild vaginal laxity. However, vaginal rejuvenation surgery is better for dramatic improvements to re-shape and tighten your labia. During your consultation, we will discuss your surgical and nonsurgical treatment options and make recommendations as to what will best fit your needs and goals.
