Labiaplasty or labiaplasty is the latest trend. More and more women are undergoing intimate surgery to correct labia minora (labia minora) that are considered unaesthetic.
However, our team of plastic surgeons in intimate surgery in Düsseldorf also treats women who come to us at the Yuveo Clinic with health problems in the labia area.
Labia reduction is the most common form of labiaplasty as part of intimate surgery and in most cases involves reducing the size of the labia minora.
However, the outer teeth can also be corrected if the findings are appropriate.
If the vagina is very dilated, e.g. after childbirth, the operation can be combined with vaginal tightening using intimate surgery.
The duration of the operation is longer and leads to slightly higher costs, but the healing phase and the period of rest are almost identical.
Labiaplasty in the sense of labia augmentation with autologous fat refers to the labia minora.

Special features of labiaplasty
Both the labia minora and labia majora can be treated surgically. It is not only the desire for better aesthetics, but also physical complaints that motivate women to undergo this procedure.

Labia augmentation with autologous fat
Labia augmentation with autologous fat at the Yuveo Clinic Düsseldorf
If a labiaplasty is desired due to labia that are genetically too small or as part of tissue shrinkage with age, you can have an injection with the body’s own fatty tissue performed at Intimate Surgery Düsseldorf.
What is the procedure for labia augmentation?
Labia augmentation can be performed under local anesthesia. We recommend a combination with twilight sedation. Sometimes a general anesthetic can also make sense.
Outpatient treatment is possible if the plastic surgeon / intimate surgeon is available.
How is labia augmentation with autologous fat performed?
In principle, we perform this type of labiaplasty in Düsseldorf in the same way as a fat graft or autologous fat injection.
We pre-treat the donor site as described for liposuction. We then inject the harvested fatty tissue into the labia minora to be corrected in order to enlarge them.
Intimate surgeons assume that on average 40-70% of the transplanted fat cells heal and retain their volume.
Frequently asked questions about labia treatment
Why are labia corrected?
The most common reason for labiaplasty is the perceived lack of aesthetics.
However, discomfort is often reported if the inner and/or outer labia are too large. This includes pain and pulling when wearing tight underwear or tight pants. Similar complaints are usually described when riding a bicycle, motorcycle or horseback.
However, the level of suffering isparticularly high if the pain also occurs during sexual intercourse.
What types of labiaplasty are practiced in intimate surgery in Düsseldorf?
Depending on the findings, the symptoms and the individual wishes of the patient, we can perform the following forms of labiaplasty at our intimate surgery clinic in Düsseldorf:
Labia reduction of the labia minora
It undoubtedly has the greatest demand.
Labiaplasty of the labia minora
It is understood in the sense of a reduction in size, but is practiced less frequently by intimate surgeons, as the more pronounced development of the large labia is less common.
Labia augmentation with autologous fat
If the labia minora are too small and the labia minora are prolapsed, this leads to an improvement in the findings.
How is the follow-up treatment after labiaplasty performed by the intimate surgeons at the Yuveo Clinic?
After a labiaplasty in intimate surgery in Düsseldorf, it is particularly important to take it easy for the first 3 days. Even too much walking can lead to bleeding, increased swelling or worse, to the transplanted fat cells floating away due to friction in the pubic area.
It can also cause the fine sutures in the delicate mucous membrane to tear. This delays the healing process.
The dressing consists of an antiseptic ointment, compresses and a sanitary napkin that can be changed if necessary and removed temporarily when going to the toilet.
Swelling after labiaplasty can be considerable. Chamomile baths or other decongestant measures can be taken in this case.
The stitches remain in place for approx. 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the type of correction and the surgeon’s habits.
Rest from sports must be observed. The extent of this rest period depends on the type of intimate surgery performed at the Yuveo Clinic in Düsseldorf.

Using autologous fat injections, which go hand in hand with liposuction, intimate surgery in Düsseldorf can also achieve G-spot enlargement and vaginal tightening. The advantage over fillers, such as hyaluronic acid, is that the results last longer.
