What is Edmonton Labiaplasty?

Edmonton Labiaplasty clinic, Youthful Image Clinic, offers multiple feminine health and genital rejuvenation therapies. One of them is Labiaplasty using laser [laser labiaplasty], scalpel [surgical labiaplasty] or other methods.

Labiaplasty is an in-demand procedure that reshapes and recontours labia minora [smaller inner lips] and/or labia majora [larger, outer, hair bearing lips]. This procedure can be used to improve appearance or discomfort that can occur when the size or bulkiness of the labia result in chafing or discomfort. Some women are born with enlarged or asymmetrical labia while other women develop these changes over time during puberty or after childbirths. Although the majority of these variations are within the normal limits, these changes can make women feel self-conscious about their labia appearance.

What are the different types of Edmonton Labiaplasty procedures?

There are several ways that labiaplasty can be performed. These include Laser Labiaplasty (procedure where laser is used to perform all or part of the procedure), Surgical Labiaplasty (procedure where scalpel blade and scissors are used to perform all or part of the procedure), combination Laser and Surgical Labiaplasty (procedure where combination of laser and surgical instruments are used as part of the procedure).

In addition, there are two main techniques for performing successful Edmonton Labiaplasty: “Trim the Edges” method and “Wedge, Edge Preserving” method. Let’s review them separately!

Trim the Edges method involves removing part of the free edges of the labia minora. This is the procedure where there is the most reduction in the colour of the labia edges as they are mostly removed during the procedure. The amounts and the contours of the tissue removal need to be precise as to produce improvement and, at the same time, maintain the appropriate function of remaining tissue. This is where the training of the doctor preforming the procedure comes in! Look below for details of Dr. Sapijaszko’s training!

Wedge, Edge Preserving technique involves the “wedge” [in the shape of pizza slice] resection. This technique has the most success in shortening the labia and preserving as much of the outer edge of the labial tissue as possible. Because of the reduction in labia length that can be accomplished with this technique, it is desirable for those who feel that their labia are too long. This is where the training of the doctor preforming the procedure comes in! Look below for details of Dr. Sapijaszko’s training!

Each treatment method has advantages and disadvantages. The choice of the therapy needs to be agreed on between the patient and the doctor. It is also important that the doctor is familiar and trained in both techniques and be able to offer these choices to prospective candidates. This is where the training of the doctor preforming the procedure comes in! Look below for details of Dr. Sapijaszko’s training!

Now, women have choices in addressing their concerns!

Experience is important and we are proud of our accomplishments in patient care over the decades!

Although there are many ways that labiaplasty can be performed, we focus on two most common and successful techniques: “Trim the Edges” method and “Wedge, Edge Preserving” method. More about these methods later!

Labia, just like people, come in different shapes and sizes. They vary in size, shape, texture, thickness, colour and many other characteristics. Some women are concerned that one labium is bigger that the other (asymmetry) or when both labia are too large for their comfort or preference.
