A labiaplasty is surgery to reduce the size of the
labia minora – the flaps of skin either side of the vaginal opening. Some women consider having a labiaplasty because
they don't like the look of their labia, or because the labia cause
discomfort. This is a major decision you should weigh up carefully.
It's natural and normal for a woman to have
noticeable skin folds around her vaginal opening and, in most cases, this
should not cause any problems.
