Labiaplasty | Labial Reduction Surgery | Intimate Rejuvenation
Treatment
Labiaplasty, or labial reduction surgery, is a highly delicate and transformative intimate procedure designed to resize, reshape, or reduce the inner (minora) or outer (majora) vaginal lips. Beyond aesthetic enhancement, this surgery provides profound physical relief for women experiencing discomfort during exercise, sexual intercourse, or while wearing fitted clothing due to enlarged or asymmetrical labia.
The Procedure
Enlarged, elongated, or asymmetrical labia can be a source of significant physical distress and self-consciousness. This can be a natural genetic trait or the result of childbirth, hormonal changes, or aging. Labiaplasty addresses these concerns with meticulous precision. Our expert surgeons perform either a labia minora reduction (trimming the inner lips so they no longer protrude) or a labia majora reduction (contouring the outer lips), ensuring a neat, comfortable, and natural-looking result. At Shumaila’s London, we tailor every aspect of this treatment to your unique anatomy and aspirations, ensuring a premium experience that is synonymous with our brand.

Frequent Asked Questions
When performed correctly by an expert surgeon, the surgery does not involve the clitoris or its delicate nerve supply. Sensation is generally completely preserved, and often sexual enjoyment increases due to increased comfort and confidence.
We use specialized dissolvable stitches. They will naturally break down and fall away over 2 to 3 weeks, so you will not need to return to the clinic to have them removed.
You must strictly abstain from sexual intercourse, using tampons, and rigorous physical activity involving the pelvic area for 4 to 6 weeks to allow the delicate tissues to heal.
The area will be swollen, bruised, and tender for the first week. Most women find the discomfort is very manageable with over-the-counter painkillers and by applying ice packs.
Because the mucosal tissue of the labia heals exceptionally well, the resulting scars are virtually invisible to the naked eye once completely matured.
The trim method removes the dark, elongated outer edge of the labia. The wedge method removes a V-shaped piece from the middle, maintaining the natural, textured (rugose) edge of your original anatomy.
Yes. In fact, many patients choose to have labial reduction performed as a day case using local anesthesia with mild twilight sedation, which allows for a much faster recovery and lower cost.
Absolutely. It is very common for one side of the labia minora to be longer or thicker than the other. The surgeon will precisely trim the tissues to create a balanced, symmetrical appearance.
You must avoid all activities that put direct friction or pressure on the genital area, such as cycling, horseback riding, or spinning, for a minimum of 6 to 8 weeks.
You will use a peri-bottle (a squirt bottle) filled with warm water to gently rinse the area after using the toilet, as wiping with toilet paper can snag the delicate stitches.
Labiaplasty is almost exclusively considered a cosmetic procedure and is rarely covered by insurance or the NHS, even if the enlarged labia cause significant physical discomfort during activities.
