The clinic for labia correction

Een schaamlipcorrectie, ook wel labiacorrectie genoemd, is een chirurgische ingreep waarbij de binnenste schaamlippen (labia minora) worden verkleind of gecorrigeerd.

What is a labia correction?

Heeft u pijn tijdens het sporten? Is fietsen of vrijen vervelend of pijnlijk? Als de binnenste schaamlippen te groot zijn en ze steken buiten de buitenste schaamlippen uit, kunt u klachten krijgen. Een schaamlipcorrectie, ook wel labiacorrectie, schaamlipverkleining of vaginale correctie genoemd, is een chirurgische ingreep waarbij de binnenste, vaak uitstekende, schaamlippen (labia minora) worden verkleind of gecorrigeerd. Dit kan zowel om cosmetische als medische redenen worden uitgevoerd, afhankelijk van de klachten en wensen van de patiënt.

Bij SkinSurgery Clinics begrijpen we dat een schaamlipcorrectie van de binnenste schaamlippen een persoonlijke en soms gevoelige beslissing is. Ons ervaren team van vrouwelijke artsen biedt een veilige omgeving waarin uw wensen centraal staan. Met een score van 9,0/10 op basis van meer dan 1800 ervaringen, bent u verzekerd van hoogwaardige zorg en een natuurlijk resultaat.

Why choose
een schaamlipcorrectie?

A correction of the labia can offer both cosmetic and medical benefits: by removing excess skin tissue from the inner labia (labia minora), any complaints disappear and they are better in proportion to the outer labia. In addition to physical complaints, it may also be that you are less satisfied with the shape of the inner labia for cosmetic reasons or when they visibly protrude, which can be discussed during the intake.

A labiaplasty is an exciting and often personal process. Curious about experiences and treatment processes? Read more about how the treatment works, view reviews and a patient's experience story.

Medically necessary reasons

Many women experience physical discomfort due to excess tissue of the inner labia, which can be a nuisance during activities such as sports or when wearing tight clothing. In some cases, asymmetrical or large labia can even cause pain, for example during cycling or sex. Irritation, cracks or inflammation can also occur due to friction.

Cosmetic reasons

Some women feel insecure about the shape of their labia or when the inner labia are larger and protrude, which can lead to embarrassment or loss of self-confidence. A labiaplasty can help to achieve an aesthetically desired shape, making you feel more comfortable in your body.

How does a labia correction proceed?

The consultation

The consultation: what to expect

In a no-obligation consultation with one of our female doctors, we will discuss the reason why you are interested in a labiaplasty. Do you have any complaints? And if so, what are they? Or are your reasons mainly cosmetic? Or both? Whatever your story, we are happy to listen to it. It is important to know that you must be at least 18 years old.

Everyone is unique, which is why during the labiaplasty consultation a physical examination will also be performed by our specialist to assess the anatomy and any abnormalities. Based on this, we will draw up a personal treatment plan that suits your needs.

Discussing wishes and expectations

During the first consultation we take the time to discuss your complaints and wishes. We listen attentively and give honest advice about the possibilities and expectations of the procedure. We provide extensive information about the treatment, aftercare, risks and look at the possibilities and associated costs.

Evaluation by the specialist

By means of a physical examination we can determine whether you are eligible for a labiaplasty and which treatment options apply to you. In this way we can provide you with good information. This can be a double-sided or single-sided (extensive) labiaplasty or with a clitoral hood correction. In this way we determine how we can achieve the best result. During the physical examination photos are taken, which can later be compared with the final result.

Treatment

Treatment

labia correction illustration

Treatment

Labiaplasty is a common surgical procedure at SkinSurgery Clinics, where the surgeon removes excess tissue from the inner labia under local anesthesia. Some women who are very nervous choose to take a sedative. It is a relatively minor procedure with a lasting natural result. The operation takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes and is always performed by an experienced and qualified female surgeon. After the procedure, you can go home after a short recovery period in the clinic.

Preparation for the procedure

Before the operation, you will receive detailed instructions on preparation, such as quitting smoking and avoiding certain medications. This will contribute to a speedy recovery.

Anesthesia

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Before the local injections, an anesthetic cream is applied for your comfort. before the start of the operation, before the anesthetic injections.

Steps of the procedure

The entire operation takes an average of 60 to 90 minutes. A labiaplasty consists of the following steps:

1. Marking: The surgeon marks the tissue to be removed.

2. Anesthesia: The treatment area is anesthetized by means of local injections.

3. Removal: Excess tissue is carefully removed by the surgeon.

4. Suturing: The surgeon closes the wound with dissolvable sutures.

3.

Aftercare

3.

Aftercare

The operation is a relatively minor procedure, however, the recovery period is spicy. This may be accompanied by some pain and swelling in the pubic area. We will give you medication to promote a successful recovery, and you can also take paracetamol for support. Swelling should be controlled with an ice pack immediately after the procedure and for several days. Keep the wound clean by rinsing it at least twice a day and after every toilet visit. We recommend leaving the area alone as much as possible to allow it to recover properly.

After the labia correction, the wound is sutured with soluble sutures and is not bandaged. It is therefore sensible to wear a panty liner or sanitary towel against any wound fluid/blood loss. In the first four to six weeks after treatment, do not engage in heavy physical activity, such as physical work, intensive sports or lifting. You can resume your daily activities. During the recovery period, sex is not recommended. You are advised to wait at least six weeks before doing so.

Below you will see pictures of how recovery may go in the first 2 weeks. Know that everyone is unique and it is a very personal process. Therefore, be well informed during a personal initial consultation.

Result of the labiaplasty

There are no clearly visible scars left after the labia correction. The inner and outer labia are in balance after the treatment and they form a natural whole. They can retain a somewhat irregular, asymmetrical appearance. This is normal, every labia is authentic and unique in its plastic form. The labia almost always retain their natural sensitivity. The final result can be seen after 6 to 9 months.

Effect on self-confidence

Many women experience an increase in self-confidence and comfort after the procedure, both in everyday life and during intimate moments.

Sustainability of the result

The result of a labiaplasty is usually permanent. However, factors such as pregnancy, aging or hormonal changes can affect the tissue.

Schaamlipcorrecties: van basis tot uitgebreidere ingrepen

Everyone is unique and this is reflected in the physical examination that takes place during the personal consultation. Not everyone gets the best results with the same surgical technique. This will have to be tailored to your body. Sometimes the inner labia protrude, but are short in length (vertically). In other cases, the excess skin of the labia rises and is quite long, which is why we recommend a more extensive procedure.

Basis Schaamlipcorrectie

Tijdens een reguliere labia correction, worden de binnenste schaamlippen waar gewenst gecorrigeerd door de chirurg. Tijdens de ingreep wordt het uitstekende huidweefsel nauwkeurig verwijderd en wordt de wond gehecht met oplosbare hechtingen.

Uitgebreide Schaamlipcorrectie incl. V-Lift

Er zijn vaak extra plooien en overtollige huid naast de clitoriskap. Tijdens de uitgebreidere schaamlipcorrectie met v-lift wordt, naast overtollig huidweefsel van de binnenste schaamlippen, ook de huid die doorloopt naar boven toe (naast de clitoris) gecorrigeerd door een zogeheten v-lift. Bij het verwijderen van de overtollige huid ontstaat dan in de volle lengte een mooie overgang voor een natuurlijk resultaat.

Labiaplasty with Clitoris Hood Correction

Tijdens de schaamlipcorrectie met clitoriskapcorrectie (capuchoncorrectie) wordt naast overtollig huidweefsel van de binnenste schaamlippen, ook de huid rondom de clitoris verwijderd. Wanneer er veel overtollig huidweefsel rondom of over de Clitoris zit, kan dit zorgen voor irritaties en minder gevoel geven. Ons team van specialisten begeleiden u door het gehele proces.

How much does a labiaplasty cost?

Een schaamlipcorrectie maakt u klachtenvrij waardoor u weer pijnvrij kunt bewegen en zelfverzekerd voor de dag kan komen. Het is een goede en betaalbare investering met blijvend resultaat. Het is goed om te weten dat de prijzen van een schaamlipcorrectie afhankelijk zijn van uw persoonlijke wensen en behoeften. Tijdens het consult ontvangt u een exacte prijsopgave. Een schaamlipcorrectie wordt alleen vergoed om medische redenen.

Een schaamlipcorrectie valt in de meeste gevallen niet onder de basisverzekering en wordt doorgaans alleen vergoed wanneer er sprake is van een medische noodzaak.

Good and knowledgeable team!

For years I had been thinking about having this surgery. Finally, in a spontaneous moment, I booked a consultation and I could not have wished for a better experience. Dr. Amra is incredibly skilled, patient and friendly. During the surgery, together with the assistant Marije, she reassured me, gave me love advice and helped me tremendously. When I saw the end result, I had to cry: what a relief and it was done incredibly well. Now in my recovery period, I hardly experience any discomfort - the aftercare instructions were clear. Doc. Amra, thank you! Because of you, my life will never be the same again and I can finally see myself in a new light.

Frequently asked questions

Do you have a question that is not answered? Feel free to contact us Monday to Sunday, between 08:00 and 22:00, at the following number or email.

Who is a labia correction not suitable for?

Every body is authentic. No vagina is the same. Do you have the idea that your vagina deviates from the norm, without suffering from psychological or physical complaints as a result? Then it is important to realize that there is no such thing as a standard vagina or the average vagina. In that case, it is wise to ask yourself whether the result of such an operation really contributes to your sense of well-being. If the labia are not yet fully developed, a labia correction is not (yet) possible. The operation can be performed by us if you are over 18 years old.

Aftercare after a labia correction

After the labiaplasty, there is virtually no bruising. However, considerable swelling can occur. It is important to start cooling immediately after the treatment. An ice pack is recommended for this. We recommend that you continue to cool the treated area regularly for several days. Counter pressure is also recommended. This can be a hard chair or rolled up towel. It is also important to keep the wound clean. Therefore, it should be rinsed at least twice a day and after every visit to the toilet. The wound is not bandaged after the treatment. However, it is advisable to use sanitary towels to ensure that any blood loss is absorbed. We advise against extra efforts in the first four to six weeks after the labiaplasty. This can include heavy physical labor, heavy lifting, cycling and sports. It is also not recommended to have sex during the recovery period. It is recommended to wait six weeks before doing this.

What is the recovery like after a labia correction?

Na de schaamlipcorrectie kan een aanzienlijke zwelling optreden, hierdoor is het belangrijk om direct na de ingreep te beginnen met koelen. Hiervoor wordt meestal een zakje diepvrieserwten of een cold-pack gebruikt. Wij adviseren de zwelling enkele dagen regelmatig te blijven koelen. Daarnaast is het belangrijk om de wond goed schoon te houden. Minstens twee keer per dag moet daarom worden gespoeld, bijvoorbeeld tijdens het douchen. De wond en het gebied eromheen mogen eventueel worden ingesmeerd met een crème. Na de ingreep wordt de wond niet verbonden. Wel is het verstandig om maandverband te gebruiken om ervoor te zorgen dat eventueel bloedverlies wordt opgevangen. In de eerste vier tot zes weken na de schaamlipcorrectie raden wij het af om extra inspanningen te verrichten. U kunt hierbij denken aan zware lichamelijke arbeid, zwaar tillen, etsen en sporten. Ook vrijen is tijdens de herstelperiode af te raden. Wilt u meer weten over het herstel na een schaamlipcorrectie? Irene heeft deze ingreep laten doen bij SkinSurgery, en deelt in dit blog haar ervaring.

Who is a labia correction suitable for?

When your inner labia are so large that they protrude further than the outer labia, you may experience discomfort. The symptoms you experience as a result can be both physical and psychological. Physical complaints may manifest themselves in the form of pain during activities such as etching, horse riding and other sports. Wearing tight clothes can also be annoying or even painful. Sometimes, large labia also cause pain during intercourse. Psychological complaints can manifest in the form of embarrassment, for instance. If you suffer from one or more of these complaints, a labia correction may be a solution.

What is the recovery like after a labia correction?

Swelling may occur after the labiaplasty, so it is important to start cooling immediately after the procedure. An ice pack is used for this. We recommend cooling the swelling and the treated area for the first few days. It is also important to keep the wound clean. It should therefore be rinsed at least twice a day, for example while showering. The wound and the surrounding area may be smeared with a cream if necessary. The wound is not bandaged after the procedure. It is advisable to use sanitary towels to ensure that any blood loss is absorbed. We advise against making extra efforts in the first four to six weeks after the labiaplasty. This includes heavy physical labor, heavy lifting, etching and sports. During the recovery period, sex is not recommended. It is advisable to wait at least 6 weeks before doing this. Would you like to know more about recovery after a labiaplasty? Irene had this procedure done at SkinSurgery Clinics, and shares her experience in this blog.

Will a labia correction be reimbursed?

A labia correction is a procedure that is generally not covered by insured care. Only if the operation is medically necessary, some health insurers reimburse the treatment in rare cases. If you are considering a labia correction, it is wise to check beforehand whether your (supplementary) health insurance covers this procedure and, if so, under what conditions.

Is a labia correction safe?

Although a labiaplasty is a relatively simple procedure, there are risks with every operation. Possible risks after the procedure can include post-operative bleeding or the wound can become infected and/or inflamed. In some cases, the scars can be or remain numb after healing. Labia are naturally asymmetrical. Although the aim is to achieve the most symmetrical result possible, a completely symmetrical result after the procedure cannot be guaranteed. However, the inner and outer labia are brought into balance as much as possible.

What exactly is a labia correction?

During a labia correction, or labia correction, the inner labia are reduced in size. This can be chosen for cosmetic or medical reasons. The inner labia (labia minora) are surgically reduced in such a way that they fall within the outer labia (labia majora) and are thus better protected.
Drs Amra Sabanovic

Drs Amra Sabanovic is an all-round cosmetic doctor, in every treatment she can express her creativity to achieve the most beautiful and long-lasting results. The Liquid Facelift treatment and Labia correction are her favourite treatment which she performs frequently. At SkinSurgery clinics, she is the real expert. 'I personally find a full face treatment the most beautiful treatment to perform. It really gives a fresher and younger look, which you see good effects of for a longer period of time.' It is a nice step on giving the face a subtle lift where you see immediate results.
